I love finding the good in bad things. For example, procrastination. Even the word is disgusting, and the state is generally terrible. You want to do something and you can’t bring yourself to do it. Isn't that bad? Bad, but not really. Because you can also benefit from “bad procrastination.”
First, let's figure out why we don't want to do what is currently a priority for us. The fact is that the body saves energy. He needs it and he is not ready to give it his all, but, on the contrary, wants to receive it. You may ask: why can’t I force myself to write an article/read my balance sheet/write to my partner and so on, but I easily and without coercion surf the Internet looking for a tour package, a new dress or a gadget? After all, this activity also requires energy. Yes, it requires, but - attention - it also gives it. That is, you spend energy - you receive it. Energy cashback. Where does such generosity come from?
It's simple: by doing what you want, you get pleasure without leaving the cash register. I scoured the Internet (which I didn’t have to force myself to do) - and here it is, a new, amazing dress! What about balance or cleaning? Here you need to spend energy not only on the work itself, but also on overcoming your aversion to it. That is, in the first case, we receive pleasure (and therefore energy) from both the action and the result, and in the second, energy is pumped out twice. The amount of energy is limited, and a lot of it is required.
A person spends it even on things he doesn’t think about. You are driving in a car, faces flash in front of you. Active attention does not capture them: you just look out the window at the traffic lights, at the road, and faces flash by. And every face that you glanced at in a traffic jam, every car that your vision picked up, “bit off” a piece of your energy.
Another energy eater is unspent adrenaline. It used to be like this: a man came out of a cave, heard a mammoth stomping nearby, got scared (optionally, he was glad that there would be lunch for the family), released adrenaline, grabbed an ax, threw it as hard as he could at the mammoth, then finished off the beast with his hands and feet. Now a man walks into his boss’s office, and he starts yelling at him. The person gets scared (or angry), but he can’t hack the boss to death with an ax or even kick him, so there’s nowhere for the adrenaline to go.
One day they set up an experiment. Very cruel, I must say (animal activists, do not read this paragraph). A container with water and a frog dipped into it was heated very slowly over a fire. The frog's body temperature increased along with the water temperature and at some point became critical. The frog would have jumped out, but she couldn’t. Why? Because all the energy was spent on heating her own body. Let's not be like that frog.
Why is it useful to fall in love with procrastination, about which all sorts of nasty things are said and with which we are called to fight. Try to make her an ally. Reasonable and conscious. Because it helps us preserve and accumulate valuable energy.
To begin with, from time to time give yourself permission not to do something and don’t bite yourself for it. Break one of the rules of effective behavior: change your priorities - from important things to pleasant ones. This, of course, does not mean that we need to lie on the couch all day long; it is simply important to avoid the constant race that awaits us at every turn. Comfortable and rewarding procrastination involves allowing yourself to pause. That is, stupid viewing of photos of cars on the Internet should turn from “Oh God, why am I sitting here, I still have two unprepared contracts” to “I allow myself to do this, I want it - and I do it!”
And finally, about situations when you still have to fight procrastination. The analytical note, whether you like it or not, must be prepared on time, and you cannot do without repairs in the house. How to get things done without brute violence against yourself? Here are the top 5 simple and effective techniques.
The first one is mini-steps. Mini-mini-mini steps. You need to write a report, it’s not going well, and you’re running out of time? Write two lines at a time, write a draft, write a little at a time.
The second way is to get involved, and then continue by inertia. For example, you are faced with your least favorite packing for the trip: open your suitcase, put any of the things in it, then the second, then take a deep breath and go for the next one.
The third one is good if you just can’t bring yourself to start. Stand in the middle of the room with empty hands. No gadgets, nothing, nothing. Stay like this until you get tired of standing around aimlessly or until you realize that you are ready to get down to business.
Fourth - promise yourself a prize. “Yes, I’ll go choose wallpaper. But then I’ll go to the store and buy myself a new cream.”
Fifth technique - write down specific actions on the way to your goal. Listing the steps doesn’t seem to solve anything, but you don’t do them. However, any list is useful, as it structures (and thereby psychologically facilitates) the task and in itself is the first step (see the second method). It also has a bonus: you can cross out items, getting a little intermediate pleasure.
Is the list ready? Now move slowly, in mini steps, towards your goal! But first, today, give yourself permission to do nothing for at least half an hour. This will be the beginning of your love affair with procrastination.
CONSPIRACY TO VICTORY OVER LAZINESS..A spell to help against laziness is a simple and very useful magical ritual with which you can rid yourself or another person of laziness. When the ritual removes excessive laziness from a person, it also gives him strength and energy for new achievements.
There are life situations when magical intervention in a person’s life is simply necessary, for example, when it is necessary to remove the negative effect of the evil eye or damage.
The fight against laziness can hardly be called a case when magic is necessary, but it is very desirable, because laziness, first of all, harms the person himself and his loved ones. Of course, you can try to get rid of laziness without the help of higher powers, but with the help of conspiracies it is much easier to do this.
Each of us is characterized by laziness, we all sometimes do not want to work, we do not want to do anything, this is normal. But some people can overcome the feeling of fatigue and the desire to idle, while other people cannot. From a magical point of view, if laziness takes over and a person succumbs to temptation, then he can be called sick. Idleness is an unnatural state for a healthy person.
The plot helps restore physical strength and gives a powerful surge of vigor and energy.
After all, every person has a desire to change and change their life for the better; if this desire does not find a response in action, then the person needs outside help. Laziness is a flaw that must be combated by any means available, and magic is in many ways the best way to overcome this problem.
Under the influence of special conspiracies, a person is able to change his outlook on many things, he can change himself for the better. The target of the ritual will be able to realize that laziness is the path to failure and the main reason for his failures in life; he will realize that if he is not lazy, he will be able to achieve more in this life, will be able to prove himself and will definitely be appreciated. Having realized all this, it will be much easier for a person to change, remake himself and get rid of shortcomings.
RITE WITH BREAD AND HONEY.
To carry out this magical ritual, you need to spread a slice of black bread with a thin layer of honey and read the words of the spell three times:
“From the power in the bread crumb, from the sweetness in the grain, will, strength and desire come to the servant of God (name) drop by drop. God’s servant (name) should no longer be weak, do not succumb to his laziness. In his hands is a copper hammer, in his feet is a copper rod. Through the veins into the tongue, through the belly into the womb. Sweetness is sweet after work, and a little is small in a lot of work. The servant of God (name) will not have laziness, weakness, or illness. Nothing will interfere with him. Let what is said come true. Amen".
This plot can be used both to get rid of laziness in yourself and another person. The most important thing is that the target of the ritual eats the charmed piece of bread with honey.
CONSPIRACY AGAINST LAZINESS.
This is a simple and accessible magical ritual, which requires only three pinches of chestnut leaves. The prepared leaves must be burned over a candle from the church and the words spoken three times:
“By the air to the heart, by the wind to the throat. Not from weakness, but from strength, not from laziness, but from desire. The servant of God (name) should no longer be lazy, not be lazy, but work, so that he can achieve what he wants in life.”
RITUAL FROM LAZINESS WITH VODKA.
Take a little vodka into your palm, wipe your face clockwise with your palm and say the words of the spell three times:
“My spirit is strong. Whatever is expressed in my strength will respond in the will of my heart. If I want good luck in life, I will find happiness for myself. I, the servant of God (name), will not live from laziness, but from strength. It is not by chance that I achieve what I want, but by desire and action. Let what is said come true. Amen. Amen. Amen".
After pronouncing the words, do not wipe your face, but let the vodka dry. Soon you should feel a surge of vitality.
An ancient ritual against laziness.
It is necessary to get up every day at sunrise (you can determine the exact time of sunrise of the heavenly body using the calendar), having prepared a basin of water in the evening. The container must be left on the balcony or in the open air so that the water is charged with the energy of Nature. After waking up, magicians recommend, you need to scoop up water from a basin with a ladle, stand in it with both feet, and, pouring the charged water into your palms, pour it onto the top of your head. Water should be poured carefully, trying not to spill past the basin.
During this period, it would be useful to turn to your guardian angel, who helps in resolving all difficult life situations:
“My angel, my guardian, protect me with yourself, save me from laziness, protect me from laziness, protect me from idleness and teach me to work. Amen."
It should be noted that at times of attacks of laziness and loss of interest, Orthodox people can turn in prayer to the Monk Arseny the Hardworking, an ascetic of the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, whom no one has ever seen in idleness, as well as to Seraphim of Sarov and Macarius the Great.
Spiritual work, turning to your Guardian Angel for help and observing religious fasts, in turn, will allow you to avoid the temptation to succumb to idleness and, as a result, the occurrence of attacks of inexplicable laziness and inaction.
CONSPIRACY ON A SLEEPING PERSON.
All conspiracies aimed at combating laziness are simple and safe household magic. This magical ritual shows excellent results if the performer complies with all existing requirements.
To carry out the ritual, wait until your target falls asleep and read the words of the conspiracy three times while standing at the head of the head:
“Hello, Chrysostom Day, hello, Lazarus Saturday. Remember the servant of God (name) of his laziness, let him not fast on Saturday, let him not be lazy on Mondays. Let him realize the strength, let him gain freedom, let him get rid of the bad. I close my words and throw the key into the deep ocean. Amen".
For the ritual to be as effective as possible, it must be carried out over three days, during the waxing moon.
RITE AGAINST LAZINESS AT SUNSET.
“I, God’s servant (name), will get up, blessing myself, and leave the house, crossing myself. I’ll go out to the churchyard, to Buevomerkov, I’ll go to God’s church. I’ll look at the holy images in the church and bow to them all three times. Just as people all go to the holy church, but no one is lazy, and everyone fasts and prays diligently, so the servant of God (name) will not be lazy. Laziness will roll away from her body and soul, she herself will renounce laziness forever. I close my words with a key and throw it into the dense forest. What is said will come true. Amen".
FROM HUSBAND'S LAZINESS.
Take any unnecessary item from your husband's clothing and go out with it to a deserted place. Spread the clothes on the ground and read the words of the conspiracy:
“You (thing) were taken from the body of God’s servant (husband’s name), and absorbed his spirit. Help me in my righteous cause, my pure cause. From now on, you are the spirit of God’s servant (name), you are his body. And what I say will come true with you and with him. The Lord God has confirmed my words. Amen".
Afterwards, bury your husband’s thing in the ground near the anthill and read the words five times:
“Just as little ants work and survive by their labor, so the servant of God (husband’s name), my husband, will work. Work, my husband, like ants, just as they help each other, so you help me, just as they do everything together in agreement, so you and I will be in agreement and will do things together. Peace and harmony will reign between us. Amen. Amen. Amen".
Now you need to pour a little sugar near the selected anthill and say loudly: “Paid.”
WEAN YOURSELF FROM LAZINESS.
This ritual must be performed at night, shortly before midnight. Light three church candles on the table, look at their fire and say the words:
“My holy savior will protect me, the servant of God (name). He will save my soul and body from laziness, he will bury me from laziness. He will teach me to work righteously, and protect me from idleness. He will help me save myself, he will help me not to get stuck in sticky idleness, and he won’t allow me to get bogged down in vice. Will cleanse my soul from laziness. Will cleanse my body of laziness. I will work hard, I will live by my work. Let it be so. Amen".
The candles should be allowed to burn out, and their remains should be buried in a deserted place.
SO THAT THE CHILD IS NOT LAZY.
If you are struggling with your child's laziness, this ancient ritual will undoubtedly help.
This magical spell is ideal for you if you have already lost hope of teaching your own child to work and fight laziness.
This is a powerful magical ritual, which requires some object from an old horse, for example, a stirrup, horseshoe, whip or saddle.
You need to thoroughly clean the chosen item, wash it in the seven clean waters and let it dry in the daytime sun.
“Just as this horse knew work, but did not know laziness, so the servant of God (name) will know work, will love it and will never be lazy. Know work, love work. Amen. Amen. Amen".
After pronouncing the magic words, you need to take the enchanted thing home. Place the object in front of your child, then turn around and, without saying a word to him, go into another room. Do not answer his questions; let the enchanted object lie in front of him.
Sooner or later, the child will take the thing in his hands and at that moment the power of the conspiracy will begin to operate. This is an ancient ritual that has proven its effectiveness many times.
A conspiracy against human laziness.
A conspiracy directed against a person’s laziness helps a couch potato get out of bed. Your own energy and exorbitant desire to cope with laziness are a very necessary help to any conspiracy.

2). You can also purchase Orthodox Icons of Jesus Christ, the Most Holy Theotokos and St. Nicholas the Wonderworker there.

Lord Jesus Christ, son of God. Guide me on the true path and shorten my steps to the deeds prepared for me. Help me cope with hateful laziness. Let there be no lazy tread for the benefit of righteous deeds. Amen!"
13). Drink holy water again.
14). Wait until the candles go out completely.
15). You get rid of their cinders, and take the Orthodox icons and the remaining holy water to the church corner.
16). Do not tell anyone about the ritual performed.
