When someone has to repeatedly remind someone of a task that they agreed to complete . from fear /anxiety that they will not complete agreed upon task or chore. who then is the cause of the nagging the person not completing the task or chore in a reasonable timely manner or the person haveing to remind Or stay on top.of them in order to get it done. A nag is created when someone doesn’t do the things that they say will do. to eliminate nagging from one's life is to simply do what they say they will in a reasonable timely manner. If I ask my husband to take the trash out before the trashmen arrive the next morning the sooner he takes it out the less time I have to nag him and a high probability that I wouldn't have to nag him at all. I wouldn't have a chance to. So as much as nagging is created and brought on by not doing something nagging can be eliminated from one's life by simply getting up and doing what needs done. Most people who experience getting nagged alot will be people who procrastinate, are forgetful,do not do the things they say they will do, bad at time management and prioritizing appropriately or are simply easily distracted by other tasks or projects. at the root of It nagging is a fear response of something not getting done And or frustration because of same task not getting done in the past.
