Say, for example, you have a test tomorrow that you really need to study for; so you decide to spend 3 hours cleaning your room and doing your laundry. It's easy to convince yourself it's not procrastinating because it is productive, but it's not what you should really be doing right now!
Or if your life is a mess, you don't have to spend all day studying for that test that's in four weeks. Go do your errands and get your life in order.
It's a weird psychological trick some people play on themselves. When there is something you should be doing but don't want to, you do something that you should do eventually but is definitely not high on the priorities list. Keep your priorities in order and do that other stuff at a more appropriate time.
