Procrastination is a bad habit with a variety of causes. Behavioral patterns are one cause. For some people, just getting started on a task seems just about impossible. To a physicist its like inertia - a mass at rest tends to stay at rest. Greater forces are required to start change than to sustain change.
Perfectionism is also a reason for delay.
When people are afraid things won t get done perfectly, they either put them off, review or redo them, preventing them from finishing on time. Fear of discomfort is another way to put a stop to what needs to be done, but the more the delay, the worse the discomfort becomes. Stop making excuses and start challenging the faulty reasoning behind each excuse. Focus on the present and the positive steps you can take toward reaching your goals. Design clear goals about what needs to be done and then set priorities.
