day no. 15,252: hard things now or harder things later?

"You can do the hard thing now, or a much harder thing later." - Douglas Wilson, The Neglected Qualification

Putting things off does not make them any easier. In fact, it only makes them harder. Whatever factors led to their difficulty will only be that much longer in force and that much stronger in force.

Difficulty is not diluted by delay.

If you are waiting to do hard things until they are easier, you will never do hard things. They won't be easier and you will be that much more used to NOT doing them by the time you get to the place where you thought you'd finally get around to them.
