Is procrastination the same as laziness? Procrastination is often confused with laziness, but they are very different. Procrastination is an active process – you choose to do something else instead of the task that you know you should be doing. In contrast, laziness suggests apathy, inactivity, and an unwillingness to act.
What is the root cause of procrastination? I think procrastination is caused by fear of failure, or perhaps a fear of success. We procrastinate because we are dealing with perfectionism, low self-esteem, or negative self-belief. Therefore, we procrastinate to protect ourselves. … The reward of procrastination is often relieving stress.

If I’m Bipolar am I lazy? Bipolar depression makes everyday tasks––like getting out of bed or taking a shower––sometimes almost impossible. So applaud yourself if you accomplish them––and do NOT let anyone call you ‘lazy’.

Great Audiobooks to listen to for motivation can be found in here, although at the end of the day it’s all down to you (or me) and I struggle quite a lot with focus and commitment, self-doubt and low self-esteem. Living on my own is really good in many ways but not so good in others and kicking myself up the arse isn’t what I’m used to but I’m going to have to start kicking. Here’s a like-minded tour of what I’m saying and I do most of this already! I’ve even got the Nike saying as a profile pic on a Twitter account. I just can’t make anything stick. That’s the main reason why I’m reducing my dose of an anti-depressant, so that I can think clearly and hopefully have some clarity of thought and feeling. Life’s Numb – (Comfortably Num) and I need a change. The most ironic and coincidental thing is, that I’ve kind of woken up in the middle of a global pandemic where the country has basically stopped, we are in another recession and many people are actually losing jobs rather than gaining them. Rock on The Shaw Trust, who with the help of the DWP is going to help me get back into work. What I’m needing to do right now is stick to an exercise routine, eat healthily, and stay stopped at smoking. I started the exercise routine well and with good intentions then my knees swell (due to arthritis), and while I’m on the exercise plan I’m eating healthily (plenty of fruit and fiber), I relapsed with the no-smoking for 2 weeks because I think I just gave up (because the exercise plan didn’t last, and with that, eating fruit and breakfast stopped). I’ve started another quit attempt as from yesterday and I’m lucky I still have my vape machines, it’s not like taking a drag on a fag or roll-up but it’s 98% safer and it doesn’t drain my energy either, which I’m very pleased about as I need that energy to get to the gym. As the Audiobook says – it’s Mind Over Muscle & writing on here is like my accountability, so thanks for listening and I’m so looking forward to the day when I get a reply and hopefully in the way of some encouragement 🙂
