Antidotes for Male Teenage Sloth: May 15, 2023 | Phillip Campbell.
“Sloth is generally defined as laziness. But it is not mere laziness; it
is a preference for ease and comfort, a reluctance to do hard things.…It
is often accompanied by indifference or boredom. Sloth is a disposition
towards whatever is easy and comfortable — it is a habitual preference for
the path of least resistance.”

Fighting Acedia: Choosing God at All Times (Simply Catholic). “Acedia
is the…way of talking about sloth. But it is much more than a simple
laziness or lack of desire to do anything worthwhile. It is an infliction
of the soul that attacks desire: we listen to it and become unable to
follow through on our intentions. Because we don’t act on intentions, we
feel dull, numb and spiritual dead. To put the definition in a more pithy
fashion: acedia creates in us the inability to choose the good.
