Procrastination is typically caused by having goals that are excessively abstract, with rewards far in the future. Added factors are anxiety, perfectionism and having a fear of negative assessment. Lack of energy, lack of motivation and feeling generally overwhelmed can contribute. People with ADHD are prone to procrastination and they sometimes use this to create a sense of urgency so as to overpower their difficulties with focus and concentration.
