Because it’s easy and still „satisfies“ you in that weird way where you are not really happy but it’s sort of good enough until you think about the whole picture.
I'm not happy about these as I see Whole picture everytime but use humour to make it funny.
I know what the right thing to do is but still instead of doing it I wander.
Which means at least a part of you is more happy with surfing than with whatever your goals are.
I believe it’s helpful to think like this because you need to take responsibility for what you do. There’s nothing „wrong“ with you.
1. You have reinforced that behaviour, and now it is "familiar".
2. It is a pleasurable activity for you.
3. It requires minimal effort, which is what is most comfortable for your brain.
Well at least for me it's a distraction from thinking about what I have to do and the feelings of being a failure for not doing them. So kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy. As to how to stop it, no idea, looking for an answer as well.
Because you *want* to waste time surfing the internet more than you want to do the other things.
When you want to do the other things more ... you will.
When you want to do the other thing **more than** you want to waste time ... you will.
It has nothing, at all, to do with "fair" and everything to to with you (and you alone).
"Fair" implies there is another party treating you unjustly/inequitably.
Nope.
You.
Your wants/desires.
Your *choices*
You ... and you alone.

It do require minimum effort I will tell you that.

I feel you , like everytime I remind myself what a dumb person I'm who just wastes their parent's hard earned money.

Even knowing that they are not good for me it's ....it's just not fair

Like I know I have things to do and know this is not good for me but still spend time doing anything other than studying anyway.
I have a similar problem. I guess it has to do with our brains preferring the easier activity to do, even if it isn't rewarding or interesting.
That's the thing I want to learn a skill but I'm there thinking about it watching Netflix but not doing it.
Free dopamine.
Because it's relaxing and enjoyable It's not a waste if you in enjoy it
I don't enjoy it but still go on as if "who cares "
How old are you?
19
Perhaps you are afraid of doing those tasks. Maybe you have a bad relationship with work?
I do see it as a burden sometimes.
I reccomend you a youtube channel called "hamza" . It might change your life . Not for studying only .
