Covid and procrastination...

5 Reasons why you’re probably procrastinating more right now

1. Additional stress (anxiety about the state of the world, social isolation, unemployment, additional caregiving responsibilities, and/or dealing with illness and loss).
2. Absence of buffer behaviors (loss of the mental prep time during commute/disengagement time on the way home from work/work-life balance issues)
3. Shifting priorities (other issues weighing on people’s minds, given what’s going on in the world)
4. Fewer social interactions (diminished social connections, given remote work, and loss of ability to run things by colleagues etc.)
5. Burnout (exhaustion, cynicism, detachment, which causes workers to do the bare minimum)

The motivation struggle has come up in conversation quite a bit lately. Feels good knowing we’re not alone. Just sayin’ ;) Hugs. XO
