HOW TO OVERCOME LAZINESS

It is the desire to be idle, to do nothing, resist effort, procrastinate and postpone doing things.It is a state of passivity and of letting things stay as they are.

Make your goals manageable:
Setting unrealistic goals and taking on too much can lead to burnout. Job burnout can cause exhaustion, loss of interest and motivation, and a longing to escape.Avoid overloading by setting smaller, attainable goals that will get you where you want to be without overwhelming you along the way.
Use positive instead of negative self-talk:
Negative self-talk can derail your efforts to get things done in every aspect of your life. Telling yourself that you’re a lazy person is a form of negative self-talk.You can stop your negative internal voice by practicing positive self-talk. Instead of saying, “There’s no way I can get this done,” say, “I’ll give it my all to make it happen.”
Create a plan of action:
Planning how you will get something done can make it easier to get there. Be realistic about how much time, effort, and other factors are needed to meet your goal and create an action plan. Having a plan will provide direction and confidence that can help even if you hit a hurdle along the way.
Use your strengths:
Take a moment to think about what your strengths are when setting goals or gearing up to tackle a task. Try to apply them to different aspects of a task to help you get things done. Research has shown that focusing on strengths increases productivity, positive feelings, and engagement in work.
Ask for help:
Many people believe that asking for help is a sign of weakness.Asking for help improves your chances of success and helps you connect with others who can encourage and motivate you.
Avoid distraction:
We all have our favorite distractions we turn to when we’re just not feeling like doing a task — whether it’s scrolling through social media or playing with a pet.Find ways to make your distractions less accessible. This can mean finding a quiet place to work, like the library or an empty room, or using an app to block sites that you scroll mindlessly when you should be on task.
Break down a task into smaller tasks:
We often avoid tasks because we find them too big, too overwhelming, too tiring, or taking too much of our time. Breaking a task into several smaller tasks can solve this problem.
Rest, sleep and exercise:
In some cases, laziness is due to being tired and lacking energy. If this is true in your case, you need to give yourself the rest and sleep you need, and you also need to give your body enough exercise and fresh air.Rest, sleep and exercise give your body the strength and refreshment it needs.
The importance of motivation:
In some cases, the reason for laziness is due to lack of motivation.You can strengthen your motivation through affirmations, visualization and thinking about the importance of performing your task or chore or achieving your goal.
Doing one thing at a time:
Focus on doing one thing at a time. If you feel you have a lot to do, you will probably feel overwhelmed and let laziness overcome you, instead of you overcoming laziness.
