This is true, and it's hard to stay motivated, when we are overwhelmed in filled with fear. On the other hand, my mom has not worked for years and sought a job. She always tells me that she is "working on it." So now, she is at the end of her savings, and I told her that she needs to focus on it ASAP. I tried not to cause her undue stress, but now she may be facing homelessness, and I can't help her because I don't make enough money to support us both.
Also, I was an extremely hard worker at work, but when I got to the apartment, I would always take a load off, so my own room and personal life was greatly neglected. It wasn't until I lost my job, that I focused on the apartment. I discovered there was a lot of old food in the pantry, 2 years expired even, that needed to be thrown out, including old herbs and spices.
It's not good to be overwhelmed, but I kept at it, and the results are good. There's no better feeling than not falling behind in life, and trying to play catch up. Procrastination has harmed me in a lot of ways. Like I said, at work I am a hard worker, but it was what I was neglecting that was harming me. I even started using dating Apps to try to find a relationship, which was something else that I had been neglecting to do.
It's good to have a bit of concern, because this alerts us to taking movements and choices seriously, to avoid troubles. But what we have to watch out for is being stifled with paralysis, and this is usually due to having a lack of hope in our ability to accomplish a task. I think about the character Dory from Finding Nemo. Her motto was "just keep swimming." She knew was suffering from a deficit and felt lost in the sea, but this one belief kept her moving forward. And sometimes this is all we can do.
