Procrastination Is Mainly Due to Fear.
We all put it off from time to time. While it may seem like we are procrastinating for later because of laziness or lack of willpower, fear is often at the root of the problem, as shown in the School of Life video above.
Both the fear of failure and the fear of success (high expectations cause stress) make us procrastinate. We want everything to be perfect . However, the only way to get rid of anxiety about a task or project is to start doing it .
I think most of us know this intuitively, but the very interesting video above shows what is in our heads when we procrastinate.
