âIf a person canât get out of bed, something is making them exhausted. If a student isnât writing papers, thereâs some aspect of the assignment that they canât do without help. If an employee misses deadlines constantly, something is making organization and deadline-meeting difficult. Even if a person is actively choosing to self-sabotage, thereâs a reason for itâââsome fear theyâre working through, some need not being met, a lack of self-esteem being expressed. People do not choose to fail or disappoint. No one wants to feel incapable, apathetic, or ineffective. If you look at a personâs action (or inaction) and see only laziness, you are missing key details. There is always an explanation. There are always barriers. Just because you canât see them, or donât view them as legitimate, doesnât mean theyâre not there. Look harder. Maybe you werenât always able to look at human behavior this way. Thatâs okay. Now you are. Give it a try.â
(And a footnote I didnât see explicitly covered in the article: laziness still doesnât exist when it is you yourself making no progress and not knowing why. You deserve that respect and consideration, too, even from yourself.)
