We fail to realise that the beginning is never really important. We think up many reasons to falter from taking the first step. However, it isn't the first step that really matters. It's the journey we wish to create that truly does. We all are told of our uniqueness. We use this excuse to feel special. To think of ourselves as great, without actually applying any effort. We lie down through all of eternity thinking that we have potential when all we do is nothing. Hypocrites. We all are hypocrites by our actions. We refuse to act even when we know it's the right thing to do. However, we are unaware of why this happens.
Everyday, as we procrastinate, we only think about having fun. We find no joy in the burdensome hard work which is necessary. The reason why this happens is because we correlate the pain and burden with our task. This way, every time we think of working hard, we are reminded of the painstaking efforts it would take and we quit.
How do we prevent this? Honestly, it's quite simple. We think of something we truly enjoy while working on our task at hand. We look at the reason why we are doing the task in the first place. Such a correlation wouldn't prevent you form working towards you goal. However, if it still doesn't entice you to wake up, then picture someone you love or admire in your life. Imagine growing old one day and meeting that person. Would this task help that person in the future? If you do this now, what could be the changes you could bring in your life? In the life of the people you admire and love? If it would bring no changes, then the task you're doing is of no importance.
Second chances don't come often. Unless you take the effort to make a change, nothing will change. Start now. Don't let the people around you suffer. Don't let yourself suffer. Don't wait for a moment to arise where you are incapable. Do it while you have time. Take advantage of the time you have. Don't let time take advantage of you.
