Tomorrow. The one word that bothers me more than anything when people say it is tomorrow. "Oh, I'll just do it tomorrow," or "I'm too tired today, I'll just do it tomorrow." I cannot stand that word because it often snowballs into the next day, the next week, the next month. It's almost never convenient or easy or fun to take care of something challenging or time consuming or tedious TODAY, but usually it's better for you or your business in the long run. Even if there's no foreseeable benefit, it actually works in such a way that you train yourself to take care of things sooner rather than later and you learn to discipline yourself - that is a very positive side effect of doing things TODAY.
