Article #24 March 27,2022

It is not too late to write my piece for today, despite the fact that I have been procrastinating all day. I've been here for hours now, reading every blog that has come across my path, and I still don't have a topic to write on. As I was idling, I decided to write about how my day went today.

What's the difference between procrastination and laziness?

I used to believe that procrastination was synonymous with laziness. Not until I understood the differences between the two at this point. It's a good thing we have Google to go to if we need to know something without asking anyone. Google plays an important part in our lives these days.

Procrastination is often confused with laziness, but they are very different. Procrastination is an active process, you choose to do something else instead of the task that you know you should be doing. In contrast, laziness suggests apathy, inactivity and an unwillingness to act. (source: here)

I thought I was lazy, but it turns out I was only procrastinating. When we talk of laziness, we mean the incapacity to do anything. Even though we are aware that the deadline is today, we lack the courage to deal with the situation. Procrastination, on the other hand, is the feeling of not wanting to do something even when you know you should. It is also the moment when you will complete tasks that you assume will be much easier than those due today. Nonetheless, these two are caused by a lack of motivation to work and a feeling of tiredness at a specific pace.

It is fine to procrastinate sometimes, but do not make it a habit. It will become your lifestyle until you realize you are constantly lethargic and lack the motivation to complete tasks on time.

I wanted to express my gratitude to my sponsors; thank you for inspiring me to write more and for believing in me. Guys, you may also read their articles.

How I Spent My Day

At 12 a.m., I'm still awake. because I'm waiting for the Shopee sale. I just got one overrun mall pullout tshirt for myself, because my mother took one of my tshirts that I also bought from that store. I usually bought Overun shirts because they were branded yet reasonably priced. They are very comfortable to wear and are not easily damaged. I purchased a load from Shopee after placing my order, but I was dismayed since they eliminated the 20 load for only 1 peso. But I'm still thankful as they still offer the 50% discount for 20 peso load. I visited several of my social media sites before going to bed, including noise.cash, facebook, tiktok, and instagram. I also read around five articles before going to bed.

I awoke at 10:30 a.m. since I had slept late, and my brother-in-law had begun to prepare the food for lunch; our ulam is monggo. I told him I'd take over because he was only boiling it at the moment. I prepared the dish beside the rice. After that, I went through all of my notifications and replied to the comments I had gotten. I constantly receive notifications in the noise.cash and read.cash because I am more active on these sites than on my other social media accounts

As I watched vlogs on YouTube, I made my food and coffee for the day. I enjoy watching Ivana Alawi's vlogs since she clearly loves her family. You must watch Alex Gonzaga's vlogs if you want to laugh out loud. I admire how she handles things and stays cheerful in her vids. I like her being kalog.

In the afternoon, I should write my piece for today, but procrastination hits, and instead of writing, I end up reading countless articles and scrolling up and down on Facebook. Around 2 p.m., I decided to go to nap since my eyes were tired from scrolling so much. I awoke about 4 p.m. and, instead of attending my online free virtual assistant course, I went to tiktok to browse random videos. I'm guilty for being so negligent.

There are moments when I am like this. I'm unmotivated to do the tasks on my to-do list for today. I only completed one of the 5 things on my to-do list, and that is the one I am writing now. But I asserted that it is acceptable to procrastinate on a certain day, but I will not allow it and will work hard the next day. I'll complete them all tomorrow to get rid of the guilt I'm having right now.

Closing Remarks

That's all, guys. I hope you're doing well and that you're now relaxing in your bed. Tomorrow, I'll post an intriguing blog. Thank you for stopping by to read. Godbless!
