It’s not about time. Or laziness. Or lack of discipline. When we procrastinate, it’s rarely a calendar problem. It’s an emotional one.
In this episode, Martin Wolf and Dr. Verena Seibert-Giller dive into the psychology of procrastination and reveal why we delay tasks not because they’re hard, but because they feel uncomfortable.
They explore how procrastination is less about productivity and more about emotional regulation. Whether it’s fear of failure, perfectionism, or task aversion – the delay is often a coping strategy, not a character flaw.
Together, they explore:
– Why procrastination is a symptom, not the root issue
– The emotional loops that keep you stuck in delay
– How your brain uses avoidance as short-term relief
– The difference between passive and strategic procrastination
– Simple steps to decode your pattern and move into action
This episode helps reframe procrastination as a signal, not a shame spiral. With clear psychological tools, you’ll learn how to manage what’s underneath the delay and finally get things done with less pressure and more self-awareness.
