fence." Thinking about something to point that you miss opportunity! Never verbalizing your ideas for fear of recrimination!

WORRY: Most commonly expressed by finding fault with others; a tendency to spend beyond one's income; neglect of personal appearance, scowling and frowning; intemperance in use of alcoholic drink; through use of narcotics; nervousness, lack of poise and self-consciousness. Worry about every single little detail of life.
OVER-CAUSATION (overly cautious): The habit of looking for negative side of every circumstance, thinking and talking of possibility of failure instead of concentrating upon means of succeeding. Knowing all roads to disaster, but never searching for plans to avoid failure. Waiting for "right time" to begin putting ideas and plans into action, until waiting becomes a permanent habit. Remembering those who have failed, and forgetting those who have succeeded. Seeing hole in doughnut but overlooking doughnut. Pessimism, leading to indigestion, poor elimination, autointoxication, bad breath and bad disposition.
PROCRASTINATION: The habit of putting off until tomorrow that, which should have been done yesterday or last year. Spending enough time in creating alibis and excuses to have done job with time left over.
Procrastination symptoms are closely related to over-causation, doubt and worry. Refuses to accept responsibility when it can be avoided. Willingness to compromise rather than put up a stiff fight. Compromising with difficulties instead of harnessing and using them as stepping-stones to advancement. Bargaining with life for a penny, instead of demanding prosperity, opulence, riches, contentment and happiness. Planning what to do if, and when overtaken by failure, instead of burning all bridges and making retreat impossible. Weakness of and often total lack of self-confidence, definiteness of purpose, self-control, initiative, enthusiasm, ambition, thrift and sound reasoning ability. Expecting poverty instead of demanding riches. Associations with those who accept poverty instead of seeking company of those who demand and receive riches. Recognize these traits in yourself, go to work and change those things that are getting in your way by whatever means necessary. TAKE a RISK, PICK a LEADER, Do your homework in order to choose a winning company or friend make sure they have a proven track record where path has already been laid out for you. Find a mentor or mentors to be your guide and listen to him or her!
You are never too old or too young to start learning something new! Just make sure you have rid yourself of traits to failure… It's great for mind to keep it exercised while preventing dementia. Exercise body to prevent deterioration being able to stay active while living and learning. ``````````````````````````````
