Time is your Enemy

If there’s a bad root in your life, then time is your enemy, not your friend.

I hear people say a lot, “Just give it time, things will get better.”

I think when people say that, what they often mean is, “I don’t know how to fix this.
To be honest, I really don’t want to open that can of worms… Hopefully, if I leave it alone, it won’t come back.”

Except that roots never stop growing. Time only makes a root stronger, deeper, and more resilient.

Have you been ignoring a problem, wishing and pretending it isn’t there?
Do you avoid thinking about it, afraid that touching it may make it even worse?

Know this: With every tick of the clock, that bad root keeps growing and making it harder to cut it off.

The best time to deal with a bad root is, and will always be, right now.
