"Today's quote is from Seneca, and it hits close to home, because procrastination is something that I have a daily struggle with. It always seems that a stoic quote hits me just when I need it.

“Putting things off is the biggest waste of life: it snatches away each day as it comes, and denies us the present by promising the future. The greatest obstacle to living is expectancy, which hangs upon tomorrow, and loses today. You are arranging what lies in Fortune's control, and abandoning what lies in yours. What are you looking at? To what goal are you straining? The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately.”

― Seneca

Don't put things off. You might not ever get the chance to complete those things that you wanted to do.
