Procrastinator's Creed

I came across this cute little Procrastinator's Creed the other day and decided it was too good not to share. Of course, I've been putting off sharing it for so long that I can't even remember where and when I saw it. Oh, well....

...I believe that if anything is worth doing, it would have been done already.
...I shall never move quickly, except to avoid more work or find excuses.
...I will never rush into a job without a lifetime of consideration.
...I shall meet all of my deadlines directly in proportion to the amount of bodily injury I could expect to receive from missing them.
...I firmly believe that tomorrow holds the possibility for new technologies, astounding discoveries, and a reprieve from my obligations.
...I truly believe that all deadlines are unreasonable regardless of the amount of time given.
...I shall never forget that the probability of a miracle, though infinitesimally small, is not exactly zero.
...If at first I don't succeed, there is always next year.
...I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I decide to change my mind.
...I shall always begin, start, initiate, take the first step, and/or write the first word, when I get around to it.
...I know that the work cycle is not plan/start/finish, but is wait/plan/plan.
...I will never put off until tomorrow, what I can forget about forever.
...I will become a member of the ancient Order of Two-Headed Turtles (the Procrastinator's Society) if they ever get it organized.
