A procrastinator may come up with outlandish excuses for not taking action. But he still makes a decision ​ — he decides, in effect, to let others control his life. 15, 16.
إِنَّ ٱلْجُهْدَ ٱلَّذِي نَبْذُلُهُ لِلتَّوَصُّلِ إِلَى قَرَارٍ صَائِبٍ قَدْ يَذْهَبُ هَبَاءً إِذَا لَمْ نَعْمَلْ عَلَى تَنْفِيذِهِ بِكُلِّ عَزْمٍ وَإِصْرَارٍ .‏
