The other day I was thinking to myself, "What is the difference between laziness, procrastination, and resting?" I personally came to the conclusion that laziness was simply a lack of productivity, while procrastination was essentially a fear of change, resulting in laziness. But what about resting? Technically that does count as productivity since I'd consider it overnight healing. But what correlation does that really have to laziness and procrastination?

I am a person of that ilk.

If I'm paying my rent on time, I am resting.

If I'm about to be evicted, I am procrastinating.

If I've already been evicted, I am lazy.

If I'm in a "higher plane," desite being out in the street, I am meditating.
