TODAY! Not TOMORROW!!!

Its many hours gone now, and you're still "Wanting to do it"
Its years gone now and not one move have you made, instead you've had accumulated months of wishful thinking.
When exactly are you going to do it?
Oh, at the right time you're saying? Am sorry to announce to you, that phrase is a SCAM, there's no such thing, you really must make a time right.
Procrastination is a sickness of the; high and mighty, small and lowly, young and old, saint or sinner,rich or poor. Its got no bounds, it respects no limits. There exist a common saying that; "Procrastination Is The Thief of Time", but re-branding this, I'll submit that; "Procrastination Is The Thief of Life", for it steals your life right before your watchful eyes. It does it so cynically, you hardly realize you losing anything.
Like that common African folklore that pictures the mouse as eating a part of you and blowing you cool air to the surface of that part of you being eating, soothing you to sleep the more while it rids you of your members. If there be anything to stand your guard against, it must be this criminal called "Procrastination".
Having related with my long time mentor and idol, Dr Dennis Waitely, I present to you this day, 7-techniques to overcoming the giant PROCRASTINATION.
Here we go:
1. Take five minutes to identify what you are putting off…
On a blank sheet of paper, note several important activities that you realize you are delaying or have put on hold.
2. Look at your list of tasks and do one of them right now…
Put the energy you've been directing toward excuses into the activity you've been avoiding. You'll discover that action eliminates anxiety.
3. If getting started is the hard part for you, set a designated time slot in the day to work on the list…
Set aside thirty minutes of your lunch hour for work specifically on one job, project, or personal goal that you've been avoiding or find difficult to start.
4. Don't worry about perfection…
What counts is quality of effort, not perfect results. Don't let yourself get bogged down with a preoccupation for perfectionism.
5. If what you are putting off involves other people, consult with them…
Your reasons for delaying action may be imaginary. Lack of communication often turns molehills into mountains.
6. If you fear the consequences associated with the action you've been avoiding, ask yourself, What's the worst thing that could happen If I did this today?
The worst-case scenario most likely would be a minor inconvenience or a temporary setback.
7. Finally, Vividly picture how you'll feel once the task is done.
Freedom from anxiety. Freedom from nagging pressures. Freedom from self-doubt. Accomplishing put-off tasks will give you a great boost of confidence and energy!
GROUND BREAKING REQUIRES "TNT" to blast your way out of apathy and overcoming procrastination.
Now you have it. Hopefully, these few principles will guide you as you decide to chatter procrastination, break grounds and get something, that thing done!.
Remember what TNT means: Today! Not Tomorrow!
If I must pick my favorite part of this piece, then it must be the bellow in quotation;
"DON'T WORRY ABOUT PERFECTION…
What counts is quality of effort, not perfect results. Don't let yourself get bogged down with a preoccupation for perfectionism."
Remember, its...
Today!
Not
Tomorrow!!!

    Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using?
    I'm looking to start my own blog soon but I'm having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and
    I'm looking for something unique. P.S My
    apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

That (il)legal Tender.

"A huge number of humans have their Truth-Reserve/account either fat or static. We rarely withdraw nor spend from it, and will rather run life's transactions with that (il)legal tender, LIES". -TW™ Its not so amazing today how accepted, tolerated, and infact enjoyed (in the actual sense) lies are. Little wonder I chose to coin it as "(il)legal Tender". Illegal tender in every sense of it, yet legal tender judging by the widespread acceptance and employment of it. Why Account? Account owing to the fact that we know the truth, identify it, gather it, but yet fail to employ it, resulting to a mere build up (Account/Reserve) in our hearts, while refusing to spend/transact with it. Note: Truth spent yields even more dividends that truth stored. Why Lie? The "cover my/your arse" mentality/syndrome has taken the good-life over from us, I wonder why on God's earth we left our arses open in the first place, and who told us lies truly covers anyone'

"Meanings Make The Man, His Definitions Define Him"

"Its difficult, if not impossible to respond beyond your heart". How do I mean? "Your conceived, derived and/or imbibed idea of thing, defines your attitude towards it"-TW™ You've always wondered why you act the way you do, react the way you do, or respond to things the way you do. Hey, am not talking temperaments here, the boss (Tim Lahaye) already did, and he "took it to the cleaners'. Even in deceit, its a hard thing to behave/respond to a thing beyond what you think about it, know about it, and the values you have placed on it. Catching a golden mug falling directly towards your head for example is a scenario that captures correctly an aspect of my discourse. There exist a couple of options to this, and believe me, every man could respond differently to this situation. One of the responses to expect, which I know you know already is; Catching the mug, preventing it from hitting your head or even the fall. Another response would be; completely do

You Didn't Deserve To Die, I Didn't Deserve Your Life.

"Though you knew the world won't receive you, you still gave your life to try. Wonderful Jesus, how can I fathom you!" -TW™ What a burden you chose to carry, what a load of Sin. Without my burden, you rode on a donkey, with mine and the whole world's upon you, you decided walking on your feet was better. What manner of man are you? You saw us kill you, yet you allowed it, for you, anything will do, just as long as it'll please the Father. The bruises and the stripes alone was good enough, if it was just about the shedding of blood, you gave it in good quantity through the torture suffered in the hands of the Roman soldiers, you really did not need to die. This was more, this was great, in fact, "Greater love than this no man can give". You paid it all, you laid your life, you paid the ultimate price that I might live. Rejected and abandoned, yet all you saw was me. Disgraced, crucified and killed for a crime you had no hand in, yet all you saw w
