You aren't lazy or procrastinating, you're scared. You've maybe been told to feel the fear and do it anyway, but what if you could feel just a bit safer before taking action?
Katie, this is a great piece! I write https://dysautonomiajournal.substack.com and encourage the next small step. It's how we move forward, how we learn and grow (in small steps rather than in leaps). I have learned my own body responds best to this. As a coach and woman with lived experience of physical therapy for Dysautonomia, this works.
Giving yourself grace to rest, restore and just be is sometimes the most helpful next step to take.
Thanks for sharing! Yes! the small steps can compliment our energy and needs so much better. And for me, when large leaps forward can seem/appear so much more tempting, itβs sometimes tough to remember how important and helpful the small steps can really be π
yes I can see what you mean, that makes a lot of sense. I think sometimes procrastination is an important way we can give ourselves some comfort. thanks for sharing β€οΈ

And someone who lives with depression I recognize procrastination as a comfort zone from getting back to it (life).
