Laziness, mostly. Laziness, and guilt because I could do something “productive” instead.

  > guilt because I could do something “productive” instead Taking a break when needed makes you more productive in long term. It prevents burnout. But sadly there are parts of life, such as school or employment, where looking busy is important. There we learn bad habits, which may take a lot of time to unlearn. In short term, could you make yourself feel less guilty about taking a walk by deciding the exact route and exact starting time in advance? Then the walk might feel a bit more like "doing your duty"...
