Procrastination is a common problem that affects many people, causing them to delay or avoid completing essential tasks. This can lead to stress, anxiety, and frustration and may impact one’s relationships, career, and personal life.
Â
Procrastination can be viewed as a symptom of a deeper underlying issue or unmet need. Rather than simply a behavior to be corrected or disciplined, procrastination can be seen as a signal that something else is going on that requires attention and healing.
Â
For example, someone who procrastinates on a task may be experiencing feelings of anxiety or overwhelm related to the task or their overall workload. By exploring these feelings with compassion and curiosity, a compassionate self-inquiry approach can help uncover the root cause of procrastination and identify strategies for addressing it.
Â
Procrastination may be a coping mechanism for dealing with difficult emotions or past traumas. In these cases, compassionate self-inquiry and trauma-informed approaches can help people explore their experiences with empathy and non-judgment and develop strategies to move forward.
Â
Ultimately, the behavior itself is not the problem but rather a signal that something else needs attention and care. One can develop a deeper understanding of oneself and their needs by approaching procrastination with empathy, curiosity, and compassion.
Â

"Procrastination is not laziness. It is fear. Fear of failure. Fear of success. Fear of being seen as imperfect. Fear of change. If you want to overcome procrastination, you have to start by addressing the fear."
