I don’t know about you but procrastination is part of my humanity. To view it any other way leaves me exposed to my negative dramas. Okay, there are various degree of this malady but in essence we all experience it at some time or other. For some people this could be some mild postponement while for others it might manifest as a dysfunctional freeze on action of any sort.

In the book PROCRASTINATION, by Dr Burka and Dr Yuen it is suggested that there maybe deeper reasons why people procrastinate:

  • Depression
  • ADD (attention deficit disorder)
  • Insufficient sleep (especially apnea)
  • Burnout (the most common)

So before you start accusing yourself of being a lazy bum, consider some other possible causes and get them treated by a qualified professional.
