Keywords:

Procrastination is a common habit among students that is difficult to avoid. There are several studies that examine this issue and try to give suggestions. The aim of this article is to specify what procrastination actually is, what are the causes of it, how it affects students learning and personal lives, and how to overcome it. Most people consider procrastination as a state of laziness when individuals do not have a longing to complete or even start any task. But actually, procrastination has a broader meaning
that most people fail to recognize. In fact, procrastination is not being lazy but doing intense and daunting tasks that have less significance, which leads to stress and low self-esteem among learners.
