I am lazy and ambitious, how do I stop being lazy?

I am lazy and ambitious, how do I stop being lazy?

I spend most of my days just doom scrolling. I can’t commit to a job. I can’t stay in a study that I would like to pursue. How can I stop this laziness?

It sounds like you're feeling really stuck and frustrated with yourself @owo. Sometimes laziness can actually be overwhelm or low motivation. You're definitely not alone when it comes to the doom scroll!

Maybe it's about identifying what's getting in the way of a small change you hope to make? Sometimes breaking down goals into micro steps can help (shrinking goals by 30-50%).

Perhaps the community can also share what's helped them to take those first small steps foward?

Take care.

the meaning of life is love. Love requires self discipline. Love also requires you to support you care and fulfilment to enable you to support the care and fulfilment of everyone and everything. Try this as a way of disciplining yourself not to be lazy. You have already taken the biggest step by realizing you are lazy. Now you just need to keep taking little steps not to be lazy. Every little step step step you take proves you are not lazy because you have taken a little step🙂
