Procrastination robs the world of countless treasures.

About This Quote

Procrastination is a terrible thing. It holds us back from reaching our full potential, and it steals the time we could be spending enjoying our pastimes. We all procrastinate in one way or another. The trick is to know when to stop wasting time on things that can wait.

If you are procrastinating, try this: Tell yourself that you are not procrastinating—you are just waiting for something better to come along. On paper or in your head, call everything that you are procrastinating “not now.” That’s what it is. Once you have said it, take the next step—do the thing itself or else give yourself permission to move on to something else.
