Procrastination is a phenomenon that affects nearly everyone at some point in their lives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is the tendency to postpone tasks or activities that we should be doing, often because they are unpleasant or challenging. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While there may be some short-term benefits to procrastinating, like putting off an unpleasant task or taking a break from a challenging project, in the long run, it can lead to significant negative consequences; like missed deadlines, decreased productivity, and increased stress levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are generally two types of procrastination: active and passive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Active procrastinators are individuals who actively choose to postpone certain tasks or activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are fully aware that they are procrastinating and do so deliberately… <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Often because they are seeking a short-term mood boost<\/a> or believe that they work better under pressure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Passive procrastinators, on the other hand, typically are not aware that they are procrastinating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n They simply find themselves unable to get started on certain tasks or activities, attributable to a variety of causes<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This type of procrastination is often linked to anxiety or perfectionism<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you find yourself struggling with procrastination, there are a number of strategies you can use to overcome it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n These include setting realistic goals and breaking down tasks into smaller steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\nActive Procrastination<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
