    Stop making excuses. Go to class every day. It's the easiest way to raise your grade, whatever bullshit excuse you make to not go is just a bullshit excuse.

You're right. This is what I've been doing all along. Making excuses for not working on what needs to be done, let alone something I'd enjoy doing. Thank you for pointing it out.

At some point, fear itself becomes more painful than the pain of doing the work.

The former pain can last forever and build all the while, but the latter is transitory and often diminishes once you confront it.
