How not to be lazy?

1. Hardening. We shouldn't avoid what is inconvenient or hard for us.
2. Checking our curiosity. It's very easy to interrupt our tasks by checking something on our smartphones. It wastes our time and makes us lazy. We should be conscious of that and try to prevent these situations.
3. Burn our bridges. If we can't work efficiently because of our distractions e.g. a smartphone or computer game, we can take our smartphone to another room or uninstall the game.
4. Being afraid of punishment. We should think about the consequences of our laziness.
5. Pleasant and unpleasant. We can connect tasks which we don't like with tasks which we like e.g. cleaning the house and listening to the music.
6. Gradation. We should get used to the effort in steps. Let's start with something easier and then turn on the heat.
7. Looking for a sense of life. When we feel dejection we lost our motivation. A rich spiritual life based on praying, reading books about spirituality, using the sacrament of penance and communing regularly makes our relationship with God deeper and thereby we would see a point in our efforts.
8. Avoiding destructive argumentations. We should be aware of our temptations which decrease our motivations because it helps us to avoid them and fight against them. We can hear in our head the voice talking to us "It's not a big deal if I do it later". It's a trick that causes us to make an exception and contributes to the weakness of our will. Next time we will give a temptation easier.
9. Developing the virtue of diligence. This virtue helps us to overcome sadness connected with effort.

2. Checking ourBe curiosity.us?

I am not sure what "Checking our curiosity" would mean. Do you mean that people must be more curious? Or do you mean that people must keep their curiosity under control?

I wasn't sure how to describe it. I meant that next time it will be easier to get into temptation = I feel the temptation and I do it and it's easier than before because I have done it once.
