Extreme procrastination. It upsets my workflow but it forces me to confront to the emotional and mental sources of why I’m trying to put something off, as opposed to just bottling it in. I just wish I didn’t internalize that I was “lazy” for so long.
I can relate to this a lot, and only realized it recently. When I procrastinate it's not just because the thing to do bores me, or because I want to do something else. There's an actual reason, and I should confront it.
Recently I procrastinated a whole day's of work sitting through video effects tutorials. My job or my passions are not even in VFX lol, I just imagine "holy shit how cool would it be if I could create something like this" and instantly my job becomes boring and useless.
This might be less of a character flaw and more because my WFH job is useless poorly paid and nobody gives a fuck enough to notice my lack of work. Ironically I'm now yearning for a somewhat stricter job so I don't spend all day on Chapo Chat
I'll never forget putting off a single assignment for an entire day, feeling like shit about it and finally completing it easily within the span of 30 minutes and submitting it last minute before midnight. That forced me to actually look at it differently.
