"If a person can’t get out of bed, something is making them exhausted. If a student isn’t writing papers, there’s some aspect of the assignment that they can’t do without help. If an employee misses deadlines constantly, something is making [it] difficult. Even if a person is actively choosing to self-sabotage, there’s a reason for it — some fear they’re working through, some need not being met, a lack of self-esteem being expressed."

@ghost Nah, I've been just plain lazy before. No barriers but my own lack of interest in doing things. My priorities were not on school.

Laziness totally exists.

That doesn't mean that some people may be having issues that create the same result. That's not the same. There may be issues that exaserbate laziness too, and make it harder to reorient.

But yeah, laziness is a thing.

@tomasino thats not laziness. Thats different priorities.
