“When we procrastinate, it’s because we have an urge to run from the difficult, uncomfortable task.  We don’t want to do the hard work, or be in confusion, or fail at something, so we get the urge to run.  It stems from the fear of failure, of not being good enough.  The urge comes up, and we follow it!  But we don’t need to follow it.  We can watch the urge to procrastinate, like a cloud, but not act on it.  We can just let it float by, and get to work.  Let the cloud float away, because it doesn’t control you.  The cloud isn’t you.  It’s just a passing phenomenon, one that arises and floats away.” ~ Leo Babauta, Essential Zen Habits (Page 87)
