Something I really want to do and have wanted to for a while but I'm too lazy, is stop being lazy. It's getting pretty ridiculous. If something is hard, I'll usually try to find a way out of it. I need to stop being lazy and just do what I need to do. Being lazy isn't going to help at all. It's just going to make things worse. I need to work on not being lazy. It will help me out a lot.
I procrastinate with almost everything; school work, community service, and pretty much everything else I need to do. If I don't do them it's just going to cause more trouble and it's going to be more work than it would have been in the first place.
I don't want my work to be any harder than it has to be. So to help me, I've made a list of a few things to help me with my laziness.
#1 Consequential thinking.
I've been doing this a lot more lately. If I think about what will happen if I do what I need to or if I don't, I will usually do it. The consequences of doing it are a lot better than if I don't.
#2 More positive thoughts.
Instead of thinking, " I'll do it tomorrow" or " it will be okay if I turn it in late" I can just think "if I do it now, I won't have to do it later." It will make things easier.
#3 Ask for help with things.
If it really is a hard thing to do, instead of not doing it, I can ask for help. It's a lot easier to do something when you have help. It won't seem as hard and I'll be more motivated to do it.
#4 don't look at it as a bad thing.
Instead of thinking about how bad it's going to be just look at the positives. Think about how it will be better if I just stop being lazy and do it.
I really need to stop being lazy. In the end, it will be a lot better for me to just do what I need to do. Hopefully this list will help me cure my laziness. I'll be a lot happier.

I liked what you wrote. It was surpurbe, but I'de have to advise you not to become so optimistic in your mentality that you become unrealistic. Because people don't do good things all the time, and to think so would be unreasonable. Also just remember that the divination of insanity is doing the same thing but expecting different results. Things like goals require consistent work and effort on one' sown part.
I agree with the more positive thoughts section. If you fill your mind two the brink of living understanding, then everything you desire will come true. Take it in a song:
Feel love the most,
Chewing gum is really gross.
I like to eat little lambs,
Perhaps that means that I'll be canned.
So, what did you think of that motivational song? It worked for me, it'll work for you. Surprised? You should be.
This is a great goal for all of us to work on.Every one has a drop of procrastination in there self,and I think everyone should take your goal to a new level and try it out.Because a lazy couch potato never solved any problems.Exsept hearing my mom yell potato out of nowhere.Sometime you just find them everywhere.
I think the essay you wrote was well thought out. You were very articulate in how you put the facts.
The way out fast from work is do it and get it over with I like what you said being on the couch dose not pay off work hard and dedicate yourself to something you like work hard and one day you will have a chest like mine.
