The one piece of advice that I was given that really stuck with me was a quote
from Mark Twain given to me in a card and was not meant seriously. This
quote was "Why do tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow just
as well?" This advice doesn't stick without me because it is something I
follow, but rather, it makes you think. Does this advice make sense? I
mean, why should you not put something off if there is no downside to
doing it later? Many people will argue that it's procrastination and is
therefore wrong, but is it? By doing it later, you get other, more
urgent things done sooner. It seems much more effective to do things
this way than to do the more urgent things later. So, how much truth is
there to this statement? This question is why this piece of "advice" has
stuck with me.
