Tomorrow never comes.

Whenever tomorrow comes around, you notice it morphed into today. “That sucks,” you think. “Okay, I’ll try again tomorrow. Tomorrow, I’ll do this, and tomorrow, I’ll do that…”

But then tomorrow comes around again and turns into today.

You ask — “Where is this damn tomorrow I was promised? Why do I keep getting more todays?”

Was tomorrow supposed to arrive with an updated version of you that suddenly likes doing all the things you baulked at doing yesterday?

You wake up and it’s today again, what now?

There’s one thing we procrastinators hate: doing anything today.
We’ll do a lot tomorrow — oh yes, a lot — but not today.

A procrastinator doesn’t say — ‘I am never going to do that.’ Instead, they say — ‘I will do that tomorrow. I will do that later.’

A writer doesn’t say — ‘I am never going to write my best-selling novel.’ Instead, they say — ‘I will write tomorrow.’
