The Cost Of Doing Nothing.

Here is a quote you don't hear everyday but I am hoping it will help buttress the point I am about to make which is:

Procastination is like masturbation:it's fun for awhile ,but in the end,you are only screwing yourself- Lauren Kunze.

Procrastination is like a disease it eats it's way inside an individual laying waste to honorable dreams and aspirations . When we ignore what demands our immediate attention,opting to do it at a later time convenient to us,eventually it is going to catch up with us often with repercussions and in this context that is the cost of doing nothing .

We see these costs when we fail to conduct regular maintenance on our cars,machineries, home repairs resulting in them breaking down and inconveniencing us while putting a strain on our pockets.Another example is leaving preparations for upcoming exams to the last minute.Still another example in regards to our own health is ignoring clear signs and symptoms signalling a failing health ultimately leading to a trip to the hospital with mounting hospital bills.

All these costs would have been avoided if we had paid proper attention to them. Cultivating the habit of doing what needs to be done today and making sure we schedule planned maintenance on our properties would save us the costs associated with unscheduled breakdowns or downtimes that would inconvenience us at a later date.

Going for regular medical ☑ check ups is great for assessing the state of our health and also helpful in diagnosing any life threatening ailments or diseases at the very early stages and providing appropriate and effective treatment before it becomes an even bigger problem.

Giving up harmful vices.
It's hard to break an habit that has been formed over a long period of time especially when it does more harm than good but it's not impossible. Anything that's learned can be unlearned although it's going take an insane amount of time,determination,self discipline and therapy.

Preparing well before an examination, a competition or anything that demands we give a 💯 percent of ourselves and ignoring the urge to procrastinate on our dreams with non-beneficial time wasting activities.

To conclude .Procastination is the biggest thief of our time,resources,talents and our future and it would continue to do so if we allow ourselves to be caught up in its net.
