The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
I think procrastination is a lot like using a dentist's drill on your own teeth. If you have some skill at it, and you use it right, then it can be a very good tool and you can end up with a big healthy smile on your face. If you use it wrong then you can cause yourself a lot of pain and end up with a rotten taste in your mouth.

That’s an oxymoronic or at least paradoxical ifferism…ie, it is an aphorism that begins with ‘if’. An aphorism is an original thought expressed concisely in a memorable way….memorable wisdom. [that's an 8-word example of how to hit a bunch of nuances in our wonderful English language...even though, I believe, it fails to meet the rules of proper grammar]
