And you, also "procrastins"?

And you? Procrastines too? If you don't, we are sure that you know someone who does it continuously and that, surely, makes you despair.But what does this disturbing word really mean? Let's give an example: you have been dating a person for a long time, you make plans for the future, you have many illusions and projects, however, your partner never seems to decide.He is unable to formalize your relationship because something like that, not only overwhelms him, but even He is lazy. "Are we not well like that?" I often reproach you.

Let's give another example: you may have the classic friend who never seems to finish his studies.It is easy to be an "eternal" university student who faces the responsibilities and anxieties of the working world. And what about people who spend all their time in front of a computer screen letting out "real life" ? Sometimes, it is much easier to let ourselves go, evading responsibilities, than to put means to act, to react, to be adult and consistent.It does not matter that the task to be performed is the easiest in the world, sometimes, it is better to leave it for tomorrow....

Let's talk today about procrastination.

And you, also

Now, the procrasti Nation is also common in adults, in profiles with low self-esteem.They are people who, far from taking the reins of their lives, "let themselves be carried away" .Let themselves be dragged along by the placid everyday life where they hide and where to protect themselves, because the simple act of "acting" causes them stress or anxiety.They can, for example, "procrastinate" decisions.They have received a job offer in which they would have to move to another province or another country and decide that it is better not to think about it now.Better tomorrow.
