Why do people sabotage themselves?

like if they know they have to be somewhere on time, they will wait to the last minute to go?
Answer:
They are happier where they are and do not want to go to the place they are supposed to be at.
This form of "mini risk taking" may provide the person with an adrenaline rush that they find stimulating. In addition, folks who are chronically late typically "earn" their repuation for tardiness, and have little reason to change (may even come to see their chronic lateness as a personality trait/something that makes them unique or lovable). This is particularly true if the chronic lateness is shrugged off as "oh, that's just Charlie for you...always late" and basically accepted and expected among his/her peers/social group/colleagues.
Some people are natural procrastinators, or it is someplace they did not really want to go to in the first place. I know late people are a pet peve of mine also... join the club.
that is called procrastination. im not sure "sabotage" is the right word to describe that type of behaviour. several reasons why people feel unmotivated and thus engage in counter productiveness might be that they are suffering from a mental or physical illness that causes stress on the mind or they are abusing drugs or the person may simply just not care about keeping up with the demands of the rest of the world
