Procrastinate

This is what I do everyday when washing the dishes after lunch. I want to lock up in the room with Aircon and stop to rest in the sofa and just read books or tinker on my phone. I delay washing the dishes and rest first and just get up 3:30 pm to start washing them.
My problem is I feel so lazy getting up at 3:30 and I don't feel like washing the dishes. What I do this week is I discipline myself. After eating lunch I wash the dishes right away. I usually end 2:30 pm. I endure the heat I just open the fan.
Now I free myself early from my duty. Now I just rest and hangout in the living room and rest all throughout the afternoon and just fold clothes.
How do you handle laziness?

I am always lazy, when it comes to Chores. Sometimes I am even lazy when my mom said to me to have a bath.
But I now changed it cuz if I will not do things needed. my mom would just keep on saying to me, like reminding me to do it. so now that I am doing it. Its quiet.
I am not lazy when it comes to Assignments as I always do it first before playing or doing anything.

@DevMrSamEleazar That was when I was young. I'm not lazy anymore to take a bath. I feel lazy only when the weather is cold

I take a nap and do the dishes later. I don´t like to go into the kitchen immediatly after eating. I say that to myself and don´t feel guilty.

I am same as you. But the problem about procrastination is you end up with a mountainful of jobs instead.

@averygirl72 that is so true. If we learn to tidy as we go, we don't need to do excessive general cleaning then.

It's always better before you take a long rest make sure you finish all your chores first so you will be free

Yeah but I feel sick to get up. I hate the feeling that I need to work.

When I can't wash the dishes yet, I scrape the food bits and soak them in water so it's easier to wash later.
Why does it take you until 2.30 pm and why do you say it's hot? Do you have to fetch water? Do you wash it outside?

It's summer so it's hot in the kitchen. I ate lunch at 1 pm. It takes me 1 and half hour to do the dishes

@merrybelle2021 We are 6 in the family. Maybe I'm slow in washing the dishes. Our dishes piles up so fast

@averygirl72 You probably use a lot of pots, pans, plates, etc. Me, I'd rather wash dishes than cooking, so it doesn't take me 1.5 hours to do it. If I cook, I lose my appetite because I get so tired afterwards.

When I was young I'm very hardworking. There is something wrong with me now. At least I fix it

Sometimes I make lists or just make myself do one thing then have a little break before doing another thing.
