Procrastination

For your consideration…..

We are all guilty of procrastination sometimes. We procrastinate for a lot of reasons ie; we are short of time, we would rather do something else instead, we don’t know how to get started, we are unsure of how to do something or it is a boring project, we are fearful etc.

Today we are called on to look at procrastination due to fear. We are being called to look at the root cause. Are we afraid of failure? Are we afraid we are not good enough? Are we afraid of the outcome? In this most Holy Week, we might ask where we would be if Jesus let fear paralyze him?

Here is the deal. All of those reasons may be valid to us but our Guidance thinks differently. For whatever reason the task was put on our plate. There are no coincidences. We are the one for the task, we are up to it and it IS all GOOD.

We are being asked to be gracious and let go of procrastination due to fear. It is simply a waste of our time.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…..

-Meditate/pray….ask….”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Let go of fear and be joyous. After all, you were selected.

What made me smile yesterday…..

-An unexpected afternoon off.

-A brief nap and then vacuuming done.

-An absolutely beautiful….warm and sunshiny day.

-Laughing with my sister, Lori.

-A great email from Alex. We may get to SKYPE with her today.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
