Explain Why You Keep Procrastinating

You keep putting the same thing off and reaching for the same distractions, and willpower advice hasn't helped because it's aimed at the wrong cause. Describe what you avoid and what you do instead, and this works out which type of procrastination you've got: fear, perfectionism, ambiguity, or low reward. Different mechanism, different fix. This finds yours.

<context>

**Diagnose the procrastination type:**
1. Identify which of the main procrastination drivers applies: fear of failure, perfectionism, task aversion, overwhelm, or boredom
2. Explain how that mechanism works and why it feels temporarily effective even though it makes things worse
3. Match the person's procrastination type to the most effective intervention approach
4. Give one specific experiment to try in the next 24 hours that targets the root cause
