We often look at mountains, and think of the effort that it would take to climb it.
learning new tasks, adapting to change, doing that diet, venturing into the new.
On Wednesdays we tell ourselves, it just two more days until weekend.
We look at the time , and say just another hour until we knock off.
One more month until your birthday, ect.
We break time up to make the things we have to do more bearable.
However, sometimes its to procrastinate and avoid, like Ill write that report tomorrow.
Ill snooze my alarm, just five more minutes...
I know I have to do that thing, but ill wait until the deadline, or until they ask me for it.
Its great to make to it in such a way that we feel we are capable of completing the tasks set before us, and the ones we set for ourselves.
It makes it so much more achievable.
Being told, that its the last time you have to do something, you are more likely to do it, so its done forever.
When we tell ourselves that we still have time to do the stuff we put off, like taxes , fines, cutting your nails , all the chores ect , don't we put ourselves at a disadvantage?
For me, I silently stress about it , until the pressure builds up to such a point that I hit my mental sweet spot - seeing that I thrive under pressure, Personally I become more analytical .
But most of the time, I can say that I'm actually lazy.
I know this about myself, and yet I think that that is tomorrows problem.
I know that its an issue and its one today, and will be one tomorrow, unless I make the change.
Until I start to push. Until I resolve it, and be better - it will make me capable of doing so much more.
But before me is a mountain. Do I climb? I know its worth it. The view from the top will be amazing.

Sure I will, Maybe after looking at my mountain Ill find that there is a cable car it that foot of the hill.
Maybe the climb will show me my strength.
Ill never know if I don't push through it.
You will never know certain sides of yourself , unless you step out of your routine.
Sometimes change happens to you, But you can always bring upon change.
Keep on hustling. I know its worthwhile.
Do you?
Until Next time ...
