Stop procrastination. This habit of ours is the very reason why we tend to pass our projects late, why we tend to cram for tests, why we tend to get scolded by our parents, why we tend to sacrifice our breaks for the sake of doing assignments.

Aren’t you tired of those sleepless nights because of doing a project that was announced by your teacher months ago? Aren’t you envious of your classmates who enjoy their lunch breaks fully because they have done their assignments at home? Don’t you think that you would have received a higher grade if you only passed your requirements on time? Regrets, regrets and regrets. That’s all you benefit from procrastination and those aren’t even considered as benefits.

Procrastination is like being in heaven at one point in your life and suddenly feel the fires of hell in an instant. Procrastination provides us that temporary luxury and lavishness we all crave for; but ironically, it also gives us a lot of burden and worries that didn’t even exist in your imagination. Don’t you think it’s about time to change your bad habits? Ascending to the comfort of heaven from the wrath of hell is a whole lot better than descending to the wrath of hell from the comfort of heaven.

Don’t put off tomorrow what you can do today. Stop wasting your time on doing preposterous things. It might be difficult to remove a habit from your daily routine; but all your perseverance and hard work will surely pay off. Remember, what you sow is what you reap. If you’ll just sow procrastination, you’re going to reap nothing. So you better start walking to the bus stop now, before the bus leaves you.
