Maybe we can't change or we truly don't change.
We might just be adjusting and pretending we changed - in order to better ourselves only.

I've noticed patterns occur in human behavior. I was a strong believer of Freud and how everything comes down to your sexuality. We are unique for having humanistic qualities such as our need to fulfill and carry out our wants.

Just came across my mind because my habitual behavior is being attached. It can be things and people.
Even songs I enjoy - I keep on my playlist, sometimes listen on repeat. Never erasing.
Nothing special.

Being attached and being possessive can be similar or different, based on how others view it.
I think how I feel will differentiate the two.
I should research more on this topic and get back to this post.

It may be more psychological.

The desires of being wanted, self esteem issues, not being able to handle that people come and go.
I hold on to dear life for someone to just stay.

I was a happy kid though - at least in the home videos.

Laziness.

What is Procrastination?

In a nutshell, you procrastinate when you put off things that you should be focusing on right now, usually in favor of doing something that is more enjoyable or that you’re more comfortable doing.
According to psychologist Professor Clarry Lay, a prominent writer on procrastination, procrastination occurs when there’s “a temporal gap between intended behavior and enacted behavior.” That is, procrastination is occurring when there’s a significant time period between when people intend to do a job, and when they actually do it.

How to Overcome Procrastination

Step 1: Recognize That You're Procrastinating

If you're honest with yourself, you probably know when you're procrastinating. But to be sure, take our Are You a Procrastinator? self test.
Here are some useful indicators that will help you know when you’re procrastinating:

  • Filling your day with low priority tasks from your To Do List.
  • Reading e-mails several times without starting work on them or deciding what you’re going to do with them.
  • Sitting down to start a high-priority task, and almost immediately going off to make a cup of coffee.
  • Leaving an item on your To Do list for a long time, even though you know it's important.
  • Regularly saying "Yes" to unimportant tasks that others ask you to do, and filling your time with these instead of getting on with the important tasks already on your list.
  • Waiting for the “right mood” or the “right time” to tackle the important task at hand.
