Guard Against Subtle Excuses That Laziness Usually Covers Itself Up With

As humans, we have inborn tendencies to do things the ways it should be done and at the right time for them too.  However, there are other feelings that are usually bottled up within us individually making us to do them at our own leisure and not necessarily at the right time for that particular task per say.

 Some are not  even be bothered about paying any attentions to such a weakling attitude but allows it to fester over time and probably get entrenched into their system which in turn makes it hard to leave the unbecoming habit especially when they notices the wastages accruing from such a lackadaisical attitudes.
 Many at times, this  easygoing ways of life usually have some personal justifiable excuses to back it up while believing that they  had genuine reasons to continue in their profitless ways of life to the detriment of so many other things that their opinionated attitude have been preventing them from seeing or giving attentions to.
 In view of the foregoing, we need to dig a bit into what are responsible for such a wasteful ways of life and what could be done to counteract them; making those that are affected to have some rethink and become more useful to the society, to others, and most especially to the courses they believe in and claim to defend and lastly, to themselves!

    What are the causes of the said attitudes and how to manage it before it becomes ingrained habit?

       Basically, a person need to understand his attachments to whatever courses he has chosen in his life and his responsibilities towards them because without that he would be doing things at will, which might not be to the best interests of the chosen fields of endeavor (s). Without knowing the seriousness of  doing things at the right time for them simply because ‘said you’ that you can always do it at ‘will’, would not only hinder the progress of whatever it is but as well could be piling up heavier loads for the person which will eventually overwhelm him and lead to outright neglecting of assigned duties.

I ll do it later!

 So taking things for granted is just another subtle ways that laziness makes some inroads into people’s life to the detriment of every other things that they do in life.

Having identified this, the next thing is to unravel how it works because that will serve as a shield to wage it or perhaps expose it further if it had settled with some people unknowingly and what they are to do to free themselves from its captivity.

           Laziness: how harmful and wasteful it is, how to breakaway from its grips.

Pure lazy living!

   Laziness is a bad sickness that infects virtually everyone alive but which makes itself hard to be identified. It usually gives the false impression that there are many other more important things to be done but which still requires some little time to think it up and adequately prepare for it, using postponements and procrastinations as tools.  At other times it uses seniority, pride, and past experience to useless those in its grips. Here are the ways it operates using the above:

1.‘I'm much older than you and am more experienced in various ways and methods of doing this job, so you are not to tell me what to do and when to do it.’  (This is if it directly involves dealing with another person) this may surprise some of us since it operates with many strategies not easily noticeable to the onlookers. Pride!

2. You have an important task to perform by 9: am but which you shifted or cancelled out rightly because of one perceived engagement or the other which are totally of less important than the 9, o'clock task that you forfeited. Now because the ‘perceived’ engagements are not really all that important and because your earlier appointment was time sensitive, besides there’s no way you could still meet up with it again, as a result, the main important task for the day is now left to be taken by a natural death! As you re busy feeling regret over what you could have done but which you didn’t do, you are now completely tired and end up spending the day as a waste. What a waste indeed!

So in it all just as it is true in the general scopes of life, it is a chain reaction. Once we fail to do the necessary things and at the right time for them, the next thing that follows is regrets which alter our mood throughout the day thus making nonsense of every other alternative we may cheaply be trying to fill up the gap with. So therefore, if really we do not have any genuine reasons why we should cancel whatever appointments that we have ethically set to keep, why should we arbitrarily make a decision that could leave us with empty feelings at that? That to me and to be candid, all of you reading this, is a pure waste of time and energy.

more reasons why we have to say no to laziness

   Lastly, here are my recommended antidotes for that to effectively handle it.

 * Let us stop giving our bodies the feelings that it has upper hands in all the decisions we make with regards to how we are to use our time and what we are to do.

*Let us stop using the demeaning words like ‘if the body cooperates’ because it would never do except if it's to do wrong or to engage in other vices. so we have to force it to cooperate.

*Let’s stop treating our bodies and our lazy feelings as if they own us. No! it is not true and unfounded claims.

*Let us use our time wisely and stop giving unnecessary excuses that leaves us with nothing but much more excuses at most.

*Let us live this life usefully while we still can and not lazy it all out aimlessly, for that only earns such individuals one sad title, ‘AIMLESS LIFE!’.

Excuses abounds and those are things that LAZINESS likes making use of, acting as if we don't have any power of our own. For instance, when we are caught on somethings that we did wrong, the usual reply we give is to try defending ourselves blaming others for what we actually did wrong and if there's no one to heap the blames on, while trying to free ourselves from the blames, you would be bound to start hearing some funny but lame excuses like, 'my body moved me to do that' while you now remain no where to be found. Our body is not different from us as many people wrongly believed and accept it to be. we can actually move our bodies to do whatever we want it to do, where the problem lies is with our motives for doing what we are set to do.
