How to overcome laziness?
After having spent some time surfing Quora, I have come to the conclusion that being lazy, and its close cousin, procrastination, are seemingly perennial problems with most young people of today.
To me, you don't need any fancy extrinsic method; all you need is the intrinsic you!
Being lazy and procrastinating are always personal choices. So don't use them as alibis.
All you need to do is to quickly make up your mind, get out of bed, and move your butt immediately so as to get what you need to do, done.
Don't wait to start until you feel motivated.
Feel motivated by starting and seeing results.
Motivation is all about action.
In fact, motivate follows action.
That's why you should start acting right away instead of waiting to feel motivated.
You will not know if something excites you or not if you do not act first.
As Thomas Jefferson once put it:
"Do you want to know who you are?
Don't ask! Act!
Action will delineate and define you."
Just as internationally acclaimed celebrity success coach and peak performance strategist Anthony Robbins puts it:
"Potential power is the ability to take action.
The path to success is to take determined action - massively and consistently."
So in a nut shell, nothing changes until something changes. This is Physics.
That's to say, nothing works, unless you do.
For things around you to change, first you must change. This is the harsh reality of living.
Unless you are prepared - mentally, physically, emotionally, and even spiritually - to do whatever it takes to change for the better, you are still in square one.
