Well, we have different ways to scale through different situations in life and at times we do a certain thing or delay somethings and at times we tell ourselves a certain lies which would only make us stay comfortable temporary. Just like drinking to forget your sorrow, after drinking the sorrow might still be waiting for you if nothing is done to take it out.
I remember enrolling for a program in school , we all started very well, the energy was top notch , we were all serious and did all what was expected of us. First year , second year, everything was going on smoothly but at a point nobody knew what happened, we all started feeling reluctant to continue . And to worsen the situation, the system ( country and school) was not helping matters. Our boss in the other hand, were not encouraging, works that were meant to be vetted in a week took months. The spending was becoming outrageous, it seems nobody cared and at a point people were just so tired of continuing with the program.
But I kept pushing and at some point I will delay or stop doing anything, I kept telling myself, " that I will finish one day and that the way others finished the program that I will also finish" . Although the words were true but it was somehow also delaying the process. I kept telling myself this. One day I said no, that I must put more effort. So I accelerated the process and added more effort and continued. And behold the process was hasten up, and I have gotten to a certain level now, I know I would complete it soon by God's grace.
So in as much as we give certain excuses and tell some kind lies to ourselves to stay comfortable, we should also realize that this is like procrastination, it only delay what ought to have been done. But the reality awaits you if not tackle when it's supposed to, because we don't skip stages in life.
Life is a process which must be followed.
