PROCRASTINATION “A Time Stealer”
Procrastination, oh how I know her so well. Procrastination is her name. I know her personally because she once lived with me, but I had to evict her. She’s a dream stealer, she’s that house guest that just won’t leave. She’s “BOLD” and brazen, not only will she refuse to leave, but she has the audacity to invites her cousin’s passivity, slothfulness, laziness, delay, not to mention hopelessness and stagnation to visit also.
I was over whelmed, and in disbelief that I let these time stealers over take my being. Procrastination reminds me of the movie invasion of the body snatchers. In short, the movie is about a Dr. who clients had the same complaint that their love ones seem to have been replaced by emotionless impostors. Doesn’t that sound like our enemy procrastination? In the movie the Dr. soon discovered that the patients’ suspicions were true; an alien species of human duplicate, grown from plant like pods, was taking over their town. It was in their town and they entered their body. That’s a description how procrastination is, it takes over your body and before you know it other foreign elements takes residence.
Procrastination and her cousins will drain you and wear you down. In your mind there’s so much you want to do. You have goals, plans and purpose to fulfil, your mind wants to move, but your body feels like there’s a two-ton brick holding you down paralyzing you. There is a remedy, Inhale then exhale, get your sword which is the Word of God Ephesians 6:17, and declare the promises of God over your life. It’s eviction time! Procrastination and her cousins must go, it time to fight the good fight of faith. It’s “WAR” time. Ecclesiastes 3:8 says it’s a time for war and a time for peace. It’s no time to be nice. It’s time I take control. Your goals, plans, and purpose has been on hold for much too long. Time to write the vision and make it plan… (Habakkuk 2:1).
Write your goals and have them in plain sight, review them daily to stay encouraged. Accomplish one thing per day and before you know it that goal will be accomplished and then move on the next goal. Have you heard the saying, how do you eat an elephant? The answer is one bite at a time. It’s chow time baby. It’s time to regain your cutting edge and kick procrastination to the curb. “Procrastination is BOLD if you give her an inch she will take a mile.” No more Procrastination! @iamalishalarae @therealalishalarae www.intercessor911.com
