The never-ending lie you keep telling yourself that will lead to your ultimate demise...
You glance over at the stack of open envelopes whispering your name at the side of your desk, wrinkling your nose and wincing just at the thought of having to deal with paying the bills.
Not right now, I can't focus on that.
I'll do it by the end of today, after my lunch break.
Lunch break goes by, no bills have been paid yet. Then, dinner. Still no paid bills.
The sunlight floods your room and the birds sing you their good morning song as you stretch your arms above your head and smile at the thought of it being the weekend. No alarms to be woken up by, you can finally enjoy a nice breakfast at your own leisurely pace, and plans can be made according to your wishes.
Suddenly, all those feelings of peace drain from your body. The bills! I should have paid those last week! The smile disappears from your face and all you are left with is the feeling of shame and disappointment.
Why do I keep doing this to myself? You may continue to ask yourself every time a scenario like this plays out.
These situations are all too common, yet many people neglect to address the issue at hand and simply allow others to label them as "lazy."
There comes a point in life where you need to take responsibility for your bad habits and make the effort to change it for your own well-being and, well, sanity. That point in your life is right now.
