Procrastination is the silent dream killer.Satan is the one making us procrastinate-You can resist him by prayer and the word of God that says -Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding- Proverbs 4:7 You can resist every temptation from Satan with the word of God like Jesus did in the wilderness when he was tempted by Satan.

Would you like to make a bet which one gets the fishes.” ~ Chinese Rhyme 28. “Begin doing what you want to do now.” ~ Marie Beynon Ray 29. “A primary reason people don’t do new things is because they want to do them perfectly – first time.

But you may think twice about beginning to build your ark once it has already started raining.” ~ Max Brooks 47. “Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.” ~ Michael Landon 48. “He who every morning plans the transactions of that day and follows that plan carries a thread that will guide him through the labyrinth of the most busy life.” ~ Victor Hugo 49. “Do you know what happens when you give a procrastinator a good idea? Nothing!” ~Donald Gardner 50. “The certainty that life cannot be long, and the probability that it will be much shorter than nature allows, ought to awaken every man to the active prosecution of whatever he is desirous to perform. It is true, that no diligence can ascertain success; death may intercept the swiftest career; but he who is cut off in the execution of an honest undertaking has at least the honour of falling in his rank, and has fought the battle, though he missed the victory.” ~ Samuel Johnson 51. “Procrastination is the fear of success. People procrastinate because they are afraid of the success that they know will result if they move ahead now. Because success is heavy, carries responsibility with it, it is much easier to procrastinate and live on the “someday I’ll” philosophy”. ~ Denis Waitley 52. “Procrastination is like a credit card: it’s a lot of fun until you get the bill.” ~ Christopher Parker 53. “Begin while others are procrastinating. Work while others are wishing.” ~William Arthur Ward 54. “Don’t procrastinate. Putting off an unpleasant task until tomorrow simply gives you more time for your imagination to make a mountain out a possible molehill. More time for anxiety to sap your self-confidence. Do it now, brother, do it now.” ~ Author Unknown 55. “Procrastination is a way for us to be satisfied with second-rate results; we can always tell ourselves we’d have done a better job if only we’d had more time. If you’re good at rationalizing, you can keep yourself feeling rather satisfied this way, but it’s a cheap happy. You’re whittling your expectations of yourself down lower and lower.” ~ Richard O’Conner 56. “Yesterday is a cancelled check. Tomorrow is a promissory note. Today is the only cash you have, so spend it wisely.” ~Kim Lyons. 57. “If we accept and internalize the fact of our own mortality, then, by definition, we have to deal with the essential questions of how we live and spend our allotted time. We have to stop procrastinating, pretending that we have forever to do what we want to do and be what we long to be.” ~ Surya Das 58. “By one delay after another they spin out their whole lives, till there’s no more future left for them.” ~ Robert L’Estrange 59. “Delaying gratification is a process of scheduling the pain and pleasure of life in such a way as to enhance the pleasure by meeting and experiencing the pain first and getting it over with. It is the only decent way to live.” ~ M. Scott Peck 60. “I have spent my days stringing and unstringing my instrument, while the song I came to sing remains unsung.” ~ Rabindranath Tagore 61. “Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.” ~ Pablo Picasso 62. “We are so scared of being judged that we look for every excuse to procrastinate.” ~ Erica Jong 63. “He who hesitates is a damned fool.” ~ Mae West 64. “Life, as it is called, is for most of us one long postponement.” ~ Henry Miller 65. “Time wasted is existence; used is life.” ~ Edward Young What have you been procrastinating on?
