I do the normal 8am-5pm job, go to gym in the evenings.

But when it comes to DIY or working in the garden I am so lazy I just keep putting things off. I would rather sit bolted in front of the TV with my laptop. I don't even want to leave the house to do shopping...


Anyone else experiencing this?
 
Me too, I have a library book that is overdue by like a week, I am too lazy to return it.

DIY is playing with yourself and DIY and garden is using nature as a backdrop

there is nothing wrong with being lazy ...if you work and can afford to pay someone else then let them do it

but if you have to do it yourself ...saturday sport is always better than gardening
 
What's wrong with that? You at least drag yourself to the loo right...

You lazy bum :p
 
Sounds like your a procrastinator - like me. Let's start a club! But not this weekend... Maybe next weekend. I have like stuff to do this weekend.
 
It may be possible that you don't see any reward in doing certain tasks. If you allowed yourself to only watch tv after doing these tasks it may motivate you to get them done.

It's akrasia;
Akrasia (ancient Greek ἀκρασία, "lacking command (over oneself)"), occasionally transliterated as acrasia, is the state of acting against one's better judgement. The adjective form is "akratic"
