Please take me &#8211; somewhere!</p>
<p>Put me in wander, put me in the whereabouts!<br />
Bring me back later &#8211; Keep me until tomorrow!<br />
Wait until Sunrise changes shifts with you;<br />
For as here in captivity causes me sorrow!</p>
<p>Show me a night to never forget,<br />
A night to live for the rest of my life.<br />
Give me memories that show only for an instant,<br />
But that habituate in my soul forever.</p>
<p>Moments that end as fast as they come,<br />
But that stay imprinted in eternity.<br />
Moments for which I get convinced to honor,<br />
Deserving declaration of a day of remembrance.</p>
<p>Set me free, put me somewhere!<br />
As here, now, it already feels like nowhere.<br />
Carry me, be my escort, show me the way,<br />
One that does not yet exist but is meant to be.</p>
<p>Show me what the world has to offer,<br />
Because you do know that well by experience,<br />
Beauty and wonder are on the loose daily,<br />
Give me, please, a piece of that tonight!</p>

<p><strong>&#8220;The Procrastination Page&#8221; -</strong> <strong>Coming </strong><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Soon</span> <strong><em>Sometime</em></strong>!  :)<br />
&#8230;still in the making, forever in the making!&#8230;</p>
<p>On this page, you can find some of <strong>my original funny quotes and remarks about procrastination</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>:  I am not finished with this page yet. I will continue working on it, OK? <img src='http://gustavoolmedo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyways,</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8221;The Pro-cras-ti-NATION&#8221;:  isn&#8217;t that where we live in?:  &#8220;The U.S.A.&#8221;!!!</p>
<p>&#8230;Oh! cool page!  I&#8217;ll be back sometime to read it&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;If we do it today, then, we can no longer be &#8220;dreamers&#8221;.&#8221; <img src='http://gustavoolmedo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />   &#8212; Gustavo R. Olmedo</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8221;Procrastination&#8221; or &#8220;Procrastinever&#8221;???</p>
<p>&#8230;I am not exactly &#8220;a procrastinator&#8221; &#8211; my son and daughter are. I am the &#8220;Father of the Procrastinators&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8230;I should, I may, I would, I could&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;I like this page!  I&#8217;ll bookmark it tomorrow, if I can ever find it again!</p>
<p>&#8230;Bookmark this page tomorrow, so that you can find it next year.</p>
<p>&#8230;Here&#8217;s why we keep procrastinating every year:  We had once said that for the next New Year&#8217;s Resolution, we would promise ourselves &#8211; as a Resolution, to never procrastinate again; but then, on New Year&#8217;s Eve, we never did such Resolution in the first place!</p>
<p>&#8230;After all these years, a friend finally gave me as a gift &#8211; a book on how to overcome procrastination. Nice!  I said:  &#8220;Finally I can get out of this!  I will definitely read it.&#8221;  That was 3 years ago. I still have not opened the book. &#8230;I think I know how the cover looks like, though!</p>
<p>&#8230;<strong>The real story, through History:</strong> Originally, the Language Bureau, upon creating new words in the early 1,600&#8242;s in America &#8211; while extending the vocabulary of the English Language, the actual word was going to be &#8220;Procrastinationalitize&#8221; as a verb, and &#8220;Procrastinationalization&#8221; as a noun &#8211; but they never finished the rest of the characters of the word!</p>
<p>&#8230;Stop telling me!  OK, OK, I&#8217;ll admit to be a procrastinator some day. Let me think about it&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;I leave for tomorrow what I have to do for today. Of course, I know that tomorrow I no longer have to do it, because as a time-sensitive work, tomorrow is then useless. Ha ha, I always find a way out of everything! <img src='http://gustavoolmedo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>&#8230;I have been 34 years &#8220;in the making&#8221;, but I still don&#8217;t know when I will be &#8220;finished&#8221;. I guess somewhere in my 80&#8242;s or 90&#8242;s like most other humans?</p>
<p>&#8230;Procrastination itself, was never meant to happen in the first place.</p>
<p>&#8230;I can talk about procrastination, because I finally came out of it. I no longer procrastinate! &#8230;what took so long?  &#8230;Anyways, this is good news, so I have been wanting to tell you, but hadn&#8217;t found a way to say it!</p>
<p>&#8230;List of Things To Do: _____________________________________.</p>
<p>&#8230;At least start by repeating the work to yourself!  Pro-cras-ti&#8230; YAWN!!! &#8230;ZZZ&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8221;Procrastination &#8220;pays off&#8221;!  Way-off what anyone would wish for!&#8221;  &#8212; GRO</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8221;Procrastination &#8220;pays off&#8221; very well!  &#8220;Misery&#8221; is it&#8217;s Currency.&#8221; &#8212; GRO</p>
<p>&#8230;What does &#8220;procrastination&#8221; means?   I heard of that word before, but never bothered to ask or look up it&#8217;s definition.</p>
<p>&#8230;<strong>My schedule for <em>next </em>week:  Write something</strong>!<br />
<strong>Monday:</strong> &#8220;Pro&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Tuesday:</strong> &#8230;&#8221;cras&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Wednesday:</strong> &#8230;&#8221;ti&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Thursday:</strong> &#8230;&#8221;na&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Friday:</strong> &#8220;Ufffff!!!  Almost there, beer today!  Let&#8217;s celebrate!<br />
<strong>Saturday:</strong> &#8220;Hangover&#8221;<br />
<strong>Sunday:</strong> &#8220;Ah!  What the heck!  Forget this!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8230;Alright &#8220;This is It &#8211; Now or Never&#8221;:<br />
&#8220;<strong>Things To Do this coming week</strong>:&#8221;<br />
<strong>Monday:</strong> &#8220;Finally do what still have not done yet&#8221;<br />
<strong>Tuesday:</strong> &#8230;&#8221;do what I was supposed to do yesterday, oh crap!&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Wednesday:</strong> &#8230;&#8221;do what I was supposed to do on Monday&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Thursday:</strong> &#8230;&#8221;do what I was supposed to do on Monday&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Friday:</strong> &#8220;rest because it&#8217;s been a busy week&#8221;&#8230;<br />
<strong>Saturday:</strong> &#8220;do what I was supposed to do on Monday&#8221;<br />
<strong>Sunday:</strong> &#8220;Carry on!&#8221;</p>
<p>Look, you know what?  Just do a tiny bit today &#8211; of whatever the task is, so then, since you actually started it &#8211; then, you can say:  &#8220;Procrastinator&#8221;???  NO! No No!  I am a &#8220;Perfectionist&#8221; &#8211; &#8220;I am still in the process of improving it!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;L                                                                                               .&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8230;I started writing an essay 2 years ago but still have not finished it.  It is about &#8220;How to Overcome Procrastination&#8221;.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;Analysis</strong>: (by a PRO)<br />
&#8220;<strong>Crastinator</strong>&#8221; = good<br />
&#8220;<strong>PROcrastrinator</strong>&#8221; = best</p>
<p>&#8230;I have not tried eating the candy brand &#8220;Now and Later&#8221; because I don&#8217;t like the first word in it. That&#8217;s too much pressure for me.</p>
<p>&#8230;maybe on second thought, or on third thought &#8211; but not on the first one.</p>
<p>&#8230;Not a good sign:  The word &#8220;procrastination&#8221; is lately getting a nickname / shorthand:  &#8220;procky&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8230;One of my Original Quotation related to procrastination:  &#8221;We make more excuses to ourselves, than to all the people we know combined.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8230;Oh, and you know what?  Since we are in the subject, here&#8217;s what I think: &#8230;Actually&#8230;you know what?  I&#8217;ll just tell you tomorrow&#8230;</p>
<p>OK, in <strong>conclusion</strong>, these are all <strong>My Own Original Procrastination Quotes</strong>, remarks, and &#8220;funny&#8221; statements, so DO NOT STEAL THEM TO THEN PUT THEM AS YOUR OWN! &#8230;or I may have to kick your butt some day!  :)</p>
<p>Oh, and MORE of these type of jokes and remarks about procrastination &#8211; but from other people:  (it&#8217;s kind of cool &#8211; the link is right below, so just click it some time!)</p>

<p>Let&#8217;s set an ebarkment towards what is considered impossible, not just open opportunities to what has already been done;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s hope for what Will definitely happen, as the sense of doubt makes a huge difference between reality and nonexistence;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s not give it the benefit of the doubt, let&#8217;s take the doubt away from the benefits;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s leave the options open, and ask ourselves The Question &#8211; but where the only answer is YES;</p>
<p>Because NO is just a distraction &#8211; a Test we get put through &#8211; one that we take over and over, as if we had never seen or heard of it;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s stop making excuses, as they are only tickets that buy us extra time, but time is limited, and the least thing we can ever buy;</p>
<p>Aim for everything, so that if you fall short and out of breath, you still catch Something,</p>
<p>As the last time I heard, Something was still better than Nothing;</p>
<p>But focus on Something, as Everything will otherwise spread yourself too thin;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s try it. &#8230;For a lifetime!</p>
<p>&#8230;Before you know it &#8211; you have already done it &#8211; over and over again, and know it, as we ourselves know our own name.</p>
<p>~ Gustavo R. Olmedo ~</p>
<p>In the hopes of that it can inspire someone &#8211; at least 1 person in the entire world &#8211; that is already &#8220;something&#8221; positive <img src='http://gustavoolmedo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
