But it really isn't so violent as that. If you're shooting yourself in the foot, it means that you are sabotaging your success. You are hurting yourself as if someone else was trying to hurt or injure you. So, if you have a project that is due soon, don't shoot yourself in the foot by trying to do it all at the last minute. (If only I could take my own advice.)

hey! It's not ALWAYS shooting yourself in the foot to wait for the last minute :)
