The price of a procastination

several years ago.. (at least it seems that long) i was forced to have multiple bank account for my salary purpose. One of it has an ATM card while the other don't. That's mean that i need to go to the bank and transfer the money from one account to the other in order to have the freedom of using the ATM card. And its really a hassle. So i decide to use online banking. and it took me 2 years or so to create the account. That mean that in 2 years i had to Que to transfer the money, another 2 Que to pay the bills (one for celcom and one for the rest of it) that is equal to approx. 3 hours per month, which means that i had wasted around 72 hours of my life by queuing.. just for the sake of procrastinating.

Now lets count that into something else. if i want to read a full English book, it'll take me around 10 hours to finish it. =72/10 = 7.2. if i had read 7.2 book of hypnotism, i might have the skill to make rapid induction by now. If i can make RM 25 sales per hours, i should have 72*20= Rm 1800.. hmm.. that should be enough to repaint by car.. or if i put it into a fixed deposit with 7% profit (Islamic), i will have extra RM 252.. and the list will go on and on..

To create an account took me around 5-10 minutes. Procrastinating it, make me lost so many.. and that is just a small area of my life.. just imagine what will happen if i take care of myself and take control of my life.. deciding on some thing good and directly applying it... continuously.. hmmm.. i suspect that the future will be a lot better than now..

  1. Di,
    The difficult first step is to recognize the problem. Now that it is out of the way, the rest should be easy. Good luck.
