The main cause of procrastination is impulsivity. Procrastinators are impatient and demand immediate gratification of their needs. It is difficult for them to be patient and defer immediate gratification, and they are unable to endure momentary pain for the sake of achieving long-term benefits. Procrastinators fall into the trap of unconscious justification for their procrastination, which reflects their being confused
and disorganized, lacking self-control and optimal time management, and devoid of perseverance and seriousness.
The mathematical equation of procrastination—as formulated by Steel—includes three variables: Expectancy, Value, and Time. Expectancy contributes to the belief that goals are unattainable due to repeated failures, even before embarking on a new attempt, making failure a certainty rather than merely a possibility. Value, on the other hand, is a measure of the pleasure derived from performing a specific task. Tedious, routine tasks lack pleasure, which is why procrastinators detest them, unlike the immediate pleasure derived from entertainment leading to distraction. Time is the most dangerous element in the equation, as it lies at the heart of procrastination. What determines our initiation of a task is its timing, because we tend to value immediate rewards for immediate tasks unlike those that require waiting. We tend to formulate immediate goals in tangible and concrete terms, unlike long-term purposes with general and abstract terminology. Thus, time routinely participates in fueling our focus on gratifying short-term present goals at the expense of deferring future objectives that would be beneficial in the long run.
