Postpone, needlessly delay example

“I can do that tomorrow . . .” How often do you say that about both the large and small things in life, the important and the trivial? How often do you procrastinate, postpone, needlessly delay, drag your feet, slack off, and habitually avoid taking action. How often do you put off actions that you must eventually perform?
