Hey there! Have you ever heard of the phrase “long finger”? It’s an Irish idiom that means to procrastinate or put something off. We’ve all been guilty of it at some point, right? But when it comes to important tasks, putting them off can be a real drag. So let’s take a look at why long finger is so bad and how we can avoid it.

Wow, that’s a lot of info! So basically, the finger is an old-fashioned way of measuring cloth - it’s about 4 and a half inches long. It comes from the digitus, which was used in ancient Rome. In English, it was called a nail and was 3/4 of an inch long - that’s one sixteenth of a foot. Pretty cool!
Long fingers are a sign of intelligence: Long fingers have been linked to higher IQs and better problem-solving skills.
Long fingers can be an advantage in sports: People with long fingers tend to have better hand-eye coordination, making them more adept at sports such as tennis, golf, and basketball.
Long fingers can help with playing musical instruments: People with longer digits are able to reach further on the fretboard or keyboard, allowing them to play more complex pieces of music.

Long finger is a colloquialism for procrastination. It’s when you put off doing something, usually because it’s difficult or unpleasant. You know you should do it, but you just can’t seem to get around to it. So instead of getting started, you keep “putting your finger out” and delaying the inevitable. It’s a bad habit that can really come back to bite ya!
