“When I become a big boy……”This is like the little boy who says when I become a big boy, I will do this and this and I will be happy. And when he becomes a big boy he says, when I fnish college and do this and this and I will be happy. And when he fnishes college he says when I get my frst job and do this and this I will be happy. And when he gets his frst job he says when I get married and do this and this and then I will be happy. And when he gets married he says when the kids get out of school and I do this and this I will be happy. And when the kids get out of school, he says when I retire and do this and this, I will be happy. And when he retires what does he see?He sees life has just gone by in front of his eyes.
Some people practice procrastination by hiding behind high sounding words, saying：“I'm analyzing”and six months later they are still analyzing. What they don't realize is that they are suffering froma disease called：“Paralysis of Analysis”and they will never succeed.
Then there is another breed of people who procrastinate by saying“I'm getting ready”and a month later they are still getting ready and six months later they are still getting ready. What they don't realize is they are suffering from a disease called“Excusitis.”They keep making excuses.
“等我長大成人……”這樣的話就像一個小男孩經常說的，等他長大後要做這做那，他就會快樂；當他長大成人之後，他又說，大學畢業後要做這做那，他就會快樂；等到大學畢業後他又說，找到第一份工作後就要做這做那，他就會快樂；當找到工作後他又說，結婚後要做這做那，他就會快樂；當結婚後他又說，等到孩子們畢業後要做這做那，他就會快樂；當孩子們完成了學業後，他又說，等到自己退休後要做這做那，他就會快樂。當他退休後，他看到了什麽呢？他的生命正在他的眼前悄悄流逝。
有一些人總是通過冠冕堂皇的吹噓來掩飾他們的拖延。他們會說：“我正在分析。”然而六個月後，他們還是在分析。他們沒有認識到自己已患上了一種“分析麻痹症”，結果，他們永遠都不會成功。
還有一些人，他們常常說“我正在準備”來達到推遲做事的目的。一個月過後，他們仍在準備之中，六個月後他們依然在準備之中。同樣，他們也沒認識到自己已經得了一種“借口病”，他們總愛不斷地找借口。
