Procrastinator's Creed
I believe that if anything is worth doing, it would
have been done already.
I shall never move quickly, except to avoid more work
or find excuses.
I will never rush into a job without a lifetime of
consideration.
I shall meet all of my deadlines directly in proportion
to the amount of bodily injury I could expect to
receive from missing them.
I firmly believe that tomorrow holds the possibility
for new technologies, astounding discoveries, and a
reprieve from my obligations.
I truly believe that all deadlines are unreasonable
regardless of the amount of time given.
I shall never forget that the probability of a miracle,
though infinitesimally small, is not exactly zero.
If at first I don't succeed, there is always next year.
I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I
decide to change my mind.
I shall always begin, start, initiate, take the first
step, and/or write the first word, when I get around to
it.
I obey the law of inverse excuses which demands that
the greater the task to be done, the more insignificant
the work that must be done prior to beginning the
greater task.
I know that the work cycle is not plan/start/finish,
but is wait/plan/plan.
I will never put off until tomorrow, what I can forget
about forever.
