I think for me I will describe procrastination as laziness. Yes I think a greater part of what causes procrastination is laziness because it delays you to call for action on the process of achievement.

Most people who procrastinate are more of lazy people. To confirm this, most times that we procrastinate, if we check properly, we are lazy at those points. So, it is tied together, however it is not to mean that people who have been classified as lazy are not great achievers. They are, they draw their strength from zeal, passion and the need to survive.

Well, laziness is a personal attribute, an inclination and attitude. Naturally lazy people are not dissatisfied with their lifestyle choices, they just normally prefer exerting themselves the least to achieve their goals. They tend not to be perfectionists, not to be workaholics, not to need work to define their schedules and to be happy. I think laziness occurs in the wake of failure. When you fail in a major way, your subconscious mind builds a major blockade. You’re stricken with fear. What will people think if I try to do something and fail again?
Procrastinators are usually unhappy with their inability to manage their time. They fantasize about accomplishing a lot more than they usually do, they suffer from cognitive dissonance and they tend to feel guilty about their choices. You can procrastinate about getting one chore finished because you’re really busy with another chore that has a higher priority. That’s not laziness. If you were truly lazy, you probably wouldn’t bother doing either chore, if you could get away with it.
