Procrastination
Procrastination is the thief of eternal life.
Now, if you have made mistakes, make today the beginning of a change of your lives. Turn from the thing that you have been doing that is wrong. The most important of all the commandments of God is that one that you are having the most difficulty keeping today. If it is one of dishonesty, if it is one of unchastity, if it is one of falsifying, not telling the truth, today is the day for you to work on that until you have been able to conquer that weakness. Put that aright and then you start on the next one that is most difficult for you to keep. That’s the way to sanctify yourself by keeping the commandments of God.
Don't duck the most difficult problems. That just insures that the hardest part will be left when you're most tired. Get the big one done - it's downhill from then on.
I shall tell you a great secret, my friend. Do not wait for the last judgment, it takes place everyday.
You never know how soon it may be too late.
-Unknown
Procrastination...is the thief of our self-respect. It nags us and spoils our fun. It deprives us of the fullest realization of our ambitions and hopes.
Fools look to tomorow; wise men use tonight.
Procrastination: Don't go after your dream, but kid yourself into thinking that someday you will.
Today is the wise man's day, tomorrow is the fool's day. The wise man is the one when he sees what ought to be done, does it today. The foolish man, when he sees what ought to be done, says, “I will do it tomorrow.”
Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness, no delay, no procrastination; never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. |
