procrastination

Why put off til tomorrow what you can do today?  In other words, lets get it off our plate.  Everything that is done today is one less thing on the list for tomorrow.  

I remember when I had employees and I had to have a difficult conversation.  The introvert in me wanted to put those conversations off, but I learned over the years to get them done so that I could stop worrying about whatever it was.  Usually the discussions went better than I thought they would.

But then there is procrastination.  There are some things in life that we find distasteful and so we put them off and put them off.  

Recently I had such an experience with Cologuard, a test prescribed by my doctor.  I am not going to describe what you do for this test, but it is not fun and it is not pretty.  I have been dreading it.  If you have done this test, you know what I mean.  If you have not done this test, you can read about it here... reader beware...

Anyway, as I write this blog, the test is done.  It is off in the mail.  I am glad it is over with.  I am also glad that taking this test has made it so that I don't need to have a colonoscopy... another wonderful part of life that we all would like to avoid.

If you are facing something unpleasant, get it over with.  Get it over with so the dread will go away and you can move on.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
