Somewhere in the middle.
Im sure being lazy is a mental problem of some kind. I often lack the motivation to do even the smallest of tasks.

However when im working for someone else, i get stuck into things and i will work long hours.

Like the room im sitting in now, i know its a mess and needs a tidy.. but for some damn reason i just cant seem to get stuck into a job around the house. I had a bit of a cleaning mission the other day, where i bleached the bathroom floor and cleaned it all up nice...

but these are rare!

Other than just "get of my ass and stop being a lazy git" , is there anyone here who may have been a bit lazy themselves, and found a nice way to motivate and get housework etc done?

I know how many hours people here spend at the PC, so i cant be the only one.


Tips for us lazy folk anyone? :)
 
Yes I am exactly the same. A bone idle b******.

Usually I can NEVER be arsed to actually do any cleaning/tidying etc, but I just do it anyway and usually get stuck into it. Music in the background helps too.
 
I'm really quite bone idle, but not when there's a lot to be done. I tend to leave stuff until there's a big list, then whiz through it all.

Of course, it depends on how much of a priority you view that task as.

Imagine aliens said they will murder you if you do not tidy your room.
 
I tend to find writing a list helps, it gets things more organised plus there's a nice sense of satisfaction when you can cross or delete an item off the list.
Other than that, willpower really :/

Im job hunting at the minute, i havent been out of work all that long really :) 6 weeks maybe.

I have a girlfriend, and she shouts at me at times too, but it doesnt seem to kick me into gear like it should either!

Think i might make a list up actually, give me something to work at.

When u get a job that will kick you into action!
 
i try best not to make a miss in the first place, ie put stuff away once youve used it then there is no mess to clean up.

put dirty clothes in a wash basket instead of a pile on the floor etc

In my last job i would head to the office at 6am to get my jobs early and beat traffic, id be at the first job bang on time, and sometimes work through til 8pm at night, completing all my jobs...

but when i got back to my place... id doss about and still be a messy bugger lol.

It probably comes down to my god forsaken addiction to the internet and ocuk forum rotation :)

Wonder if theres a medical cause, or if hypnosis helps :)
