A crisis is often the problem which was previously procrastinated. Allowing it to build up to a point of a crisis-event — an emergency that needs to be immediately attended to — is something which many of us do. It is the immediacy of anything that finally focuses us to attend to the issue; with our busy lives, we tend to ignore, put off and delay that which does not “have to” be dealt with.
But it is often the problem after that continues to haunt and nag. We can attend to this or that crisis, but the resultant consequences trailing thereafter will often be the long-term conditions which have a residual impact long lasting, and while the crisis may have been handled, it is the problem after that will often defeat.
Look at our national debt. So long as our country can continue to borrow, it is not a crisis, and so none of the politicians deem it a necessary issue to discuss. By the time it becomes a crisis, none of the politicians who are in office today will be there, and so there will never be any accountability. Yet, the problem after the crisis will remain for decades thereafter, if not longer.
And what about a health crisis? Delay, procrastinate and disregard — until the health issue becomes a crisis; and the problem thereafter is often the chronic, progressively debilitating disability that remains.
And what about one’s job or career? For Federal employees and U.S. Postal workers who suffer from a medical condition such that it is becoming apparent that the medical condition will no longer allow you to continue in your job, consult with a Federal Attorney who specializes in FERS Disability Retirement Law. Deal with the coming crisis now, lest the problem after becomes unsolvable.
Sincerely,
Robert R. McGill, Esquire
