The biggest lesson for me from Covid-19 is Procrastination is more deadly than the virus itself. Because of procrastination, people may not get tested and treated and they may die instead of getting healed.  Because of procrastination, people put off doing things, waiting for another day.  The things that they put off could be to lose weight, look for a job, get organised, learn the course that they want, or simply putting off eating their favourite food or buying the wireless earbuds that they yearn for.  N ow with shops closed and lockdown in cities, they cannot do anything other than watch on the internet.

There are 5 things that we must say No to: Say No to Procrastination . Just do it now, and better still, do it yesterday. Napoleon Hill in his latest book "Outwitting the Devil" revealed that procrastination is the number one killer to success in this world. It doesn't matter that what you are not perfect, all it matters is that you start first and the rest will follow. Say No to Follow the Market.  Steve Jobs did not follow the market, he created the market. He also spoilt the market by giving customers more than what they asked for: instead of just a phone, he gave them an MP3, Video Player, Mini Computer, Camera, Video Camera and Photo Editor.  Say No to Dreaming.  Dreaming is having dreams with no timeline and action plan, a dream is a dream with timeline...
