God said:
Go above and around all the detours from the good life that get under your skin, all the things that drive you up the wall, others' habits that drive you to distraction. Odds are good that you are so distracted by habits that are equally yours and that you try to restrain. Perhaps the same tendency to procrastination runs through your veins. You might overcompensate for it in your intolerance for it.
Perhaps someone's procrastination is intolerable. You are allergic to it. Perhaps you fall victim to another’s procrastination. No one admires procrastination, nor does anyone admire another’s nagging about it.
You might desire to see procrastination removed from the Face of the Earth or made a criminal offense, for you would love to see everything in the world ship-shape. You see no reason for it not to be.
Would you rather have someone procrastinate or would you rather be nagged at? Is one more preferable to you than another? Is one better than another or worse than another? Is it better to make promises that you don't keep and may well forget? Or is it better to keep trying to get someone to live up to his word? Both are repetitive. One doesn't do what he promises, and one can't stop talking about it. A perfect combination -- unmet promises and continual nagging. Neither one is valuable, yet they are prominent enough in the world.
What have you been able to accomplish about other people in the world who seem to hold you hostage in their delays? And who can stop someone from being upset and yammering on about it?
