Today's #leadership quote

“Procrastination is one of the most common and deadliest of diseases and its toll on success and happiness is heavy.” – Wayne Gretzky

Almost all of us procrastinate with respect to some of the activities that we should do. The size of the task could be daunting so we put off starting it knowing that it will take a long time to finish. Often the task appears complex so we are uncertain of our ability to master it therefore we decide to leave it for another day. The fear of failure often cripples us so we put off starting a key initiative that could positively impact our lives if we finish it. We put off exercise or dieting or reading or catching up with old friends because we have more urgent things to concern ourselves with. The longer we procrastinate the bigger the task looms and the more stress it creates. If instead we can find the resolve to just take the first step and start the journey we can get momentum and complete that task that we let intimidate us for so long. We also develop the confidence to tackle future tasks and the courage to face our fears head on. Procrastination is natural for all of us but overcoming it helps us become what we are capable of being. Start today on that task that you have put off. You will be glad you did
