I'm increasingly convinced that "laziness" isn't really a thing; the mental health establishment seems to be coming around to this position as well.
This article mainly talks about laziness in mainstream people. For myself, I'd say that what may appear to others as laziness could also be:
- fear of punishment, pain, or other intensely negative consequences of acting (especially where those negative consequences are largely invisible to others)
- inability to focus on a complex task, due to distractions or competing priorities
- forgetfulness (knew I needed to do something, forgot to actually start doing it)
- disagreement on priorities/value -- others assume I'd want to do something, but actually I think it's either a bad idea or less important than other things
...and probably other things I'm not thinking of at the moment.?
