Lazy? Here’s 7 No-Bull Ways to Actually Get Things Done

Feeling へたれ? Well, it’s the ultimate luxury, after all.

There’s nothing inherently wrong about being lazy.

But, sometimes, some things just need to be done.

And here’s a foolproof guide to overcoming laziness – every single time.

But First – Why Do We Even Get Lazy?

Laziness is a multi-layered psychological phenomenon.

What is it though? Where does it come from? What triggers it?

“Nothing changes if nothing changes.” – Courtney C. Stevens

Sometimes, you just don’t feel like doing anything or exerting yourself.

あなたに欠けているもの モチベーション, so you stay inert. And that’s what laziness is.

Yes, to some degree, it’s a 選択.しかし something’s weighing you down.

You’d much rather stay productive all the time if it was entirely up to you.

But laziness makes you やぶさか to use your energy.

So, what causes laziness? Here are a few good examples:

  1. A lack of or excessive sleep.
  2. Physical, emotional, or mental conditions.
  3. Stress, anxiety, and being overwhelmed.
  4. Struggling to overcome distractions.
  5. Poor diet and a lack of exercise.

It can be any one of these explanations, something else, or a mix.

So, it’s time to 自省 and make a few crucial 変更.

ここに、あなたが知るべきすべてがある。

1 • No More Zero Days

Starting small is key when it comes to モチベーション そして 規律.

So, this is a simple rule to live by: no more zero days.

But what does that mean, exactly? Let’s give you an example.

Say you want to start working out consistently. You string two, three days, maybe even a week – and then you stop. But the no more zero days rule prevents that from happening.

This rule implies doing something, 何でも, rather than nothing.

Maybe you don’t get a workout in, but at least you do one pushup.

And when you start, you may find the ドライブ to keep going.

It’s a simple and effective strategy for overcoming laziness.

2 • Surround Yourself With the Right People

Now, this one might be a little trickier to pull off.

It’s not easy to find, meet, and befriend people.

But the benefits far outweigh the effort it takes to form 人間関係.

Being surrounded by driven people is an endless source of モチベーション.

Their every 成果 is a reason to celebrate and get inspired.

They push you to succeed, always checking up on you.

And that support goes a long way and may very well change your life.

3 • It Doesn’t Need to Be Perfect

Striving for 完全性 is noble and inspiring. But it’s not realistic.

Everything you do, it’ll 決して be perfect.

Sure, it can be excellent – but never perfect.

And changing that mindset can help you stay on the move.

Not everything needs to be done perfectly. Sometimes, it just needs to be done.

Recognize this and 生産性 そして 効率 will skyrocket.

4 • Laziness Is a Reward

There’s nothing wrong with doing nothing. It’s fine. It’s 必要.

But the thing is, you can’t avoid 仕事 そして 責任 all the time.

So, reward yourself with laziness instead.

Take a two-hour break after finishing today’s tasks.

Take a day off after a hard week’s work.

Reward yourself with doing nothing, but make sure you earn it.

You can still be lazy and enjoy it without feeling bad about it.

5 • Don’t Let It Define You

Just because you’re lazy now doesn’t mean you’ll stay that way.

The only way laziness can define you is if you let it.

Just thinking that you’re not lazy can make a huge difference.

It can rewire your brain and help you spark yourself into アクション.

After all, it all boils down to your マインドセット. And nothing’s hardwired.

Remember to reward yourself when you get things done.

A single good day can break the cycle and change the narrative.

Even a few good hours of work on a bad day are worth their weight in gold.

6 • Fake It ‘Till You Make It

Do you need extra 信頼 or a boost of エネルギー? Fake it.

Play the game of pretend and trick your brain to get things done.

You’d be surprised how easy it is to do this.

All it takes is a single thought to get you out of bed and on your feet.

Try pretending that you’re not lazy – and you won’t be.

Embody that role and give it your star performance.

Never say you’re lazy. Say you’re フィーリング that way. Feelings come and go.

Perceive yourself as a highly functional, 生産的 adult – and you’ll be one.
