Procrastination: It's Not Laziness, It's an Emotional Response, Says ADN40
Mexico City, June 5, 2025 - ADN40, a Mexican news outlet, recently released a short video explaining that procrastination is not simply laziness but a complex emotional response. The video, featuring a presenter from ADN40, cites studies from Harvard and the University of Calgary to support the claim that procrastination stems from poor emotional regulation rather than time management issues. The presenter states, "Dejar todo para después no es pereza, es una reacción emocional" (Leaving everything for later is not laziness, it's an emotional reaction). The video suggests practical solutions such as breaking down large tasks into smaller steps and employing the 'five-minute rule' to overcome procrastination. This relatable topic and the scientific backing provided make the video's message highly shareable and useful for a wider audience.
