Mr. Hands

I often delay small tasks for no good reason. Things that are often twenty minutes or less to do become insurmountable obstacles in my mind, and I especially struggled with this when I was a teenager. I would sit around not doing much of anything and then lament it was "too late" to do the things I initially set out to do. But it's only too late when you're dead. So today it was already 2 PM on my day off when I decided to finally clean the muck off from my non-retractable garden sunroof. I hopped on my bike, bought a telescopic garden hose extension, found out my garden hose was busted, and rode to the hardware store to get a replacement. After that, cleaning the roof really was only twenty minutes of vigorous scrubbing, and I had a freshly cleaned sunroof at 4:30 PM. Because very often, the only person who thinks it's too late to start something new, is you.
