8. PROCRASTINATION. This is one of the most common causes of failure. “Old Man Procrastination” stands within the shadow of every human being, waiting his opportunity to spoil one’s chances of success. Most of us go through life as failures, because we are waiting for the “time to be right” to start doing something worthwhile. Do not wait. The time will never be “just right.” Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
-Napoleon Hill, #8-10 of Hill’s 30 Reasons for Failure take from page 114 from his book “Think and Grow Rich: 70th Anniversary Edition”.
This statement needs to be on repeat in my brain. My biggest problem is procrastinating. with EVERYTHING. I find my self making “to-do” lists so i dont forget or procrastinate. ill put post-it notes on my phone andset alarms for the last minute possible to get anything done. I have done it all my life and I feel like im stuck in this habit forevor.
