No unwelcome tasks become any the less unwelcome by putting them off 
till tomorrow. It is only when they are behind us and done, that we 
begin to find that there is a sweetness to be tasted afterwards, and 
that the remembrance of unwelcome duties unhesitatingly done is welcome 
and pleasant. Accomplished, they are full of blessing, and there is a 
smile on their faces as they leave us. Undone, they stand threatening 
and disturbing our tranquillity, and hindering our communion with God. 
If there be lying before you any bit of work from which you shrink, go 
straight up to it, and do it at once. The only way to get rid of it is 
to do it.
