We may feel lazy to do some of the things we need to do in our daily lives, we may not be able to fulfill our duties, we may sometimes leave our homework to the last minute, we feel like we should do the work later and we can never do it because we constantly postpone it.

These situations. It is a common occurrence among people who engage in procrastination behavior.
