The Lepers Theory (Procrastination)

Good Thursday Morning my beloved.

Here is what the lepers said in 2 kings 7: 9 
"Then they said one to another, We are not doing right. This is a day of [glad] good news and we are silent and do not speak up! If we wait until daylight, some punishment will come upon us [for not reporting at once]. So now come, let us go and tell the king’s household." (AMP). 

The truth is that, embodied in this lepers theory are many success principles. They did not just know to do good regardless of the evil done against them, they also knew to be spontaneous!

Procrastination indeed attracts many punishments.
1. The punishment of remaining at a stagnant place. The only antidote for stagnation is instant action. Never keep for tomorrow what should happen now!

2. The punishment of frustration especially when you see the people you are better off move on. I've discovered that moving on is not much of competence than it is of stepping out. I keep thinking what happens to an immobile competent fellow in comparison to a mobile incompetent one? Most likely the mobile incompetent guy would embrace competence on the go while the immobile competent guru would die only him knowing his competence.

I think of good guys who wouldn't land a job because they wouldn't accept a-day-of-little-beginning-offer as a result of their high horse competence. I also remember some guys who decided that a little is better than nothing until before their eyes they climbed to having it all.

The lepers said, "If we wait until daylight, some punishment will come upon us [for not reporting at once]. So now come, let us go and tell the king’s household." (AMP).

Here is my point, great people only turn out great because they have mastered the act of AT ONCE (spontaneous) good decision.

That I preach the AT-ONCE principle does not negate paying attention to your sensitivity.
The wrong things must not be done at once.
The wrong deal must not be signed at once.
The wrong decision must not be made at once.

Once your sensitivity detects danger, use "Delayed gratification," which is also a principle of greatness.
However, Once you've searched your spirit and all is correct and you have a strong push to move, never slack!

Most men that I know regret over land they should have bought many years ago when they had the strong nudge to, but because they procrastinated, they didn't buy and the land now is hot cake, but not theirs.

Here is my last point about procrastination
3. It will eventually deny you what you'd intended to do. By that I mean you might never do it again.
Stop the procrastination.
DO IT NOW!
Do it at once!

Get ready!
- today, grace for spontaneity is released on you!
- what others struggle to do, you will do easily!
- You will never miss a golden opportunity again and the ones you missed in this season of total recovery are coming back to you!
- Your mistakes will turn to a mighty miracle for you today!

Be blessed and highly favoured as you share this thought with your friends and follow me @PstIyke(twitter).
