Procrastination Is Emotional Avoidance

Procrastination isn't about being lazy. It's your brain protecting you from

discomfort. When you avoid that essay or workout, you're choosing the path of least

emotional resistance. Your mind sees the task as a threat and picks something easier like scrolling

or cleaning instead. The real fix? Identify what specific discomfort you're avoiding.

Fear of failure? Perfectionism? Once you know the root cause, you can address

it directly. Stop fighting symptoms and start understanding your patterns. That's when procrastination

loses its power over you.
