    The problem gets worse as more and more people overreact to a misunderstanding. I did take care of it shortly after posting.

    If the thing I am avoiding doesn’t have negative consequences then I don’t feel like avoiding it is procrastination, just choosing something else. That is the difference for me.

    For example, avoiding cleaning is only procrastination if there is a negative consequence like mold buildup or it causes issues my sinuses to have a fit from excess dust. Or if being disorganized hinders my ability to do the things I want. For me, procrastination isn’t defined by someone else.
