    Procrastination: What It is, Why People Do It and How To Tackle?

    By Parth ShuklaAugust 5, 2020

    “While we waste our time hesitating and postponing, life is slipping away.” Greatly said by a philosopher, Procrastination is one of the biggest challenges our generation has met in their life.




    Procrastination is the act of delaying or putting off tasks until the last minute, or past their deadline. People, generally, engage in such type of manner due to the fear of any potentially negative consequences that could arise with their problems.

    It affects all age groups, all the genders, communities, religions, and in all parts of the world. Procrastination is, supposedly, the main barrier that blocks you from getting up and making the right decisions and living the dream life you’ve thought of.

    And why we are saying it because a recent study shows that people tend to regret more the things they haven’t done than the things they have done. Also, feelings of regret and guilt resulting from missed opportunities tend to stay with people much longer.

    In this ever-changing world, keeping yourself away from all the unwanted feelings of loss wasted and a burden upon yourself is a common thing to experience. While it is not a serious problem, the regular performance of procrastination can bring numerous harms.

    Why Do People Procrastinate?

    As you should know, will power of a person is tagged as the main reason behind procrastination. People who procrastinate more are said to be having low will power or less self-control. But little do you know that it is the Intrinsic Motivation that plays the role.




    Intrinsic motivation is nothing but a target-achieved feeling that helps us to overcome the habit of putting things off daily. And there are many reasons, besides your inner exception, that is a vital asset to your procrastination.
