Three things are necessary for a sin to be mortal: It must be grave matter (it must be seriously wrong: murder, missing Mass on Sunday, etc.) One must know that it will offend God. One must choose one's own will anyway. "Look, God, I know that I should get up and go to Mass, I know that you want me to, but I want to lay in bed/go to the beach/whatever so I'm not going to Mass."
