Being Casual #5 Being Casual #1


If 22 years of existance has taught me anything, its that I'm REALLY, REALLY LAZY. Lately this has been affecting my life pretty adversely, in terms of grades, relationships, AND trading (and of course, consequently, gifting). But being stubborn as ever, I refused to roll over and accept that I can't change it. It's why I tried everything I could to prove that I wasn't a procrastinator who couldn't contribute to anything on time. And yes, there are some areas of work where I noticed myself not being as lazy as others, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't replicate the same results in other fields. Its like I had tunnel vision, where only things that interest me could hold my very feeble attention.

I've recently come to realise that there's actually a medical reason as to why I am wired to act this way, but I will NOT use that as an excuse to justify my lacklustre approach to everything in life. And I would probably urge every other fellow procrastinator to feel the same way, but then I would come across as a preaching son of a bitch.

Here, have some candy and answer this : How do you combat procrastination?

Hmmm, really great. I wonder if I can do this with a photo of mine. Is it easy?

Hm, relatively. You just gotta learn to use pen tool, and some other basic stuff like colors. Mostly lots of pen tool work though, it may take some practice to learn how the curves behave, but I wouldn't call it hard.

No, no, no. Procrastination is simple with me.
Is something important? Then if I won't do it in time, then I'll f@cking beat myself.
Is something not important? Meeehhh, then there are so many days to do that. xD
There are a lot of times that I say that I will do this on Monday, this on Tuesday, etc., in order to persuade myself to do something - and it works. Rewarding myself after doing something, especially the important ones, is very helpful too. :D

Hmmm, I don't think so, but well, different people can have different opinions. Doing nothing can make me crazy. o.O

i agree that occupation will keep one's mind sane and body in shape(we all know round is also a shape) but ye, "clinically" lazy people will definitely consider being able to do nothing a reward at whatever cost it comes.

I once had a timetable, when I first started my gap year. My ex helped me with it so I wouldn't just sit at home doing wutever and it was amazing for a while, but eventually I started to neglect it. These days my uni timetable is more than enough.

I could have one, to help me keep up with the chores, but I need some procrastination in my life as well. I always find something to do with my free time, so don't really, fully procrastinate that much. Days are not long enough fo dat.

I suffer heavily from procrastination. Lots of days I stay up late doing homework even when there isn't even much work to do :3.

I can be pretty bad sometimes, I normally just keep playing my games until my partner nags me enough or I manage to get to a certain point in the game where I'm happy to close it for a while.

Procrastination, my worst enemy... Running a Bullet Journal helps a bit, but I still struggle with getting things done. I suspect a Medical Reason too.
