A Step-by-Step Guide to Overcoming Laziness

Although laziness is often seen as a right or habit, it is also the starting point of many physical and psychological disorders. Laziness is also defined by the name Oblomov Syndrome in today’s world, where people who completely cut off their relationship with social life and do not want to act.

It is an obvious fact that many people complain about reading less, producing less and less moving. People who have the potential of “diligence” enough to obey the guide created to prevent this can give a new direction to their lives in a very short time.

1-Waking up early

The first option offered to people who want to completely remove the remnants of laziness is to start the day early. People who wake up early in the morning, including weekends, spend much more energetic and full days. Scientific research underlines the need to be asleep between 23:00 and 03:00 in order for the brain to rest and work more efficiently the next day. Those who stay awake during these hours start the day by waking up tired. Frequent yawning during the day and the desire to go home and go to bed as soon as possible also directly affect the further growth of laziness.

2-Exercising or doing sports

The proverb “working iron does not rust” applies to the human body as well. People who put sports into their lives as a habit both lose their excess weight and have a much more movement-oriented life. As it is known, excess weight negatively affects the freedom of movement of the person. This spreads to much more serious proportions. Factors such as the gradual decrease in the desire to leave the house and the prolongation of hanging out at home are the starting point of some psychological disorders. However, going to the gym two to three days a week or doing small exercises at home can be seen as an antidote to laziness.

3-Creating Lists of Books and Movies

Art has always been a driving force that keeps people alive and moving. There is no need to enroll in a ballet class or do an opera to get rid of laziness. Cinema and literature culture, which is the common denominator of all, should be made regular by including it in certain programs. One of the most enjoyable of these options is to always keep the brain active by reading a variety of books. Film lists should be created and efforts should be made to watch these films in movie theaters as much as possible.

4-Staying Away From Television

We rank second after the US in television viewing statistics in Turkey. Television watching habit has gradually turned into television addiction. Both children and adults are equally excessively dependent on television, setting the limits of their laziness. The act of “monitoring” is in itself a passive act. It is a habitual cult in which it is impossible to participate directly and prevents the person from all possibilities of movement. For this reason, the television should be avoided as much as possible and action should be taken to be watched instead of the audience.

5-Breaking Social Media Accounts

Social media accounts are at the top of the elements that create another addiction field after television. Today, we are aware of millions of people who do not feel safe and comfortable without sharing photos or tweets. In order to prevent this, social media accounts should be given a break and work should be done to be a part of real sociality.

6-Hanging Out at Home

Laziness turns into asociality over the years. Organizing every entertainment and meeting at home, being stuck at home even on weekends is the most obvious extension of laziness and is among the general habits of many. This way of life should be abandoned and entered among people. Traveling, exploring new places and taking photos in these places will be beneficial in every respect.

7-Healthy and Fiber-Based Nutrition

People’s choices in life affect the general life. Nutrition habits are one of them. Eating foods high in fat and sugar affects everything from head to toe, from anatomy to chemistry. These kinds of harmful foods bring along both laziness and health crises. Instead, an organic, healthy and fiber-based diet is recommended. The consumption of foods that are easy to burn will affect the person both physically and spiritually in the stages of action and action.
