There is very seldom, if ever, good enough reason for procrastination in life. If a lot of money is involved in the decidion, then fair enough. But many folk simply put off making decisions and doing things, simply because it is outside of their current comfort zone. Carelessness can cost a lot in life as well. If one is careless at their job, they could be dismissed from their job,which would then result in lack of income, so it is very seldom a good thing in life. Excellent article.

Well, it could be if you are completely careless, but if you care just a little then it is ok. Being careless is not the worst thing in the world.

If it's investing in a bank (ie, buying stock), I think it's better to be cautious than sorry later. I think it's only those that has done the research but just keep putting it off that needs to get going.

Now, that's procrastination that can be deadly. Unfortunately, I must admit that I am one of the persons that you mentioned up above. Lately, I've been trying to find a good bank to invest in but I've just been lagging and doing "research" and it's really just delaying me when I could be accruing interest as we speak.

This has been a perpetual problem for me. The "just do it" mantra doesn't seem to stick for me. I am constantly over-planning and under-acting. But I'm working on it, and I found this post very encouraging. Thanks. Thanks for the shove. This has been a perpetual problem for me. The “just do it” mantra doesn’t seem to stick for me.
