Over the past few years, there has been an upsurge in discourses associated with laziness and which emissions encourage. Some of the reasons include; using technology too often, and having some form of mental illness. 

Why Are People Becoming Lazy?

It was noted that laziness is deemed to be the tendency of a person to avoid work or make little effort, which, cannot be reduced solely to motivation aspects. In contemporary society, the factor is especially important, due to the use and development of technology. For example, services like, Grammarly are highly helpful but at the same time are characterized by the ability to entrap users. 

Also, the regression in careers can cause people to become lazy, again. If people experience certain failures in one of the spheres of their lives, they can lose the staking, which results in lesser work output and interest. This can be regarded as the pressure to work continuously and the feeling of getting afraid of losing one’s job sometimes makes some people end up being inactive. 

Notably, slacking can also be associated with the contemporary change of the work culture. Some cultures, for instance, the Indian culture, instill in their employees a strong working ethic due to the pressure from the family and society; this brings about working stress that may lead to the withdrawal of employees from the active working schedule.

Ways to Overcome Laziness 

• Identify the Root Cause: Diagnosing the cause of laziness is the first step. Do you feel too loaded, discouraged, or uninterested in your work? On the other hand, finding the cause of the problem will point you in the right direction to finding a solution. 
• Set Clear Goals: At other times, it may be due to sheer laziness as people do not know what they have to do next. This is why it is much better to set relatively small and realistic goals that will help to establish purpose and activity in your life. This occurs by creating sub-goals that make the main goal doable and possible unlike when faced with a large project that one loses sight of and hence the need to break a project into several sub-projects. 
• Reduce Dependency on Technology: In that, technology cannot be ignored but has to be used almost as if it is an instrument. For example, if you are heavily dependent on software to write, use the programs only when drafting papers to build up cooperative skills.
• Seek Support and Accountability: At times, having someone you can turn to and consult gives you that push you need sometimes. This can be a mentor, a friend, or probably a colleague, which means that somebody will be there to ensure that you are active enough. 
• Embrace a Growth Mindset: People usually avoid threats and this can discourage them from taking action but when challenges are perceived as ways to learn then a person will take action. These are the types of mindsets that one has to change to move on from one failure to the next and avoid the curse of sloth. 

Therefore, when people realize these factors that lead to laziness, they can be motivated how to eliminate these factors and regain their energy and productivity. Life and work are all about balance and proactivity or, in other words, the ability to keep things going in parallel.
