This quote highlights the danger of procrastination and the false sense of control it can create. Often, when faced with a task we don't want to tackle, we convince ourselves that we'll address it before it becomes too difficult.

On the contrary! Those historical residues have helped us to view religious teachings, as it were, as neurotic relics, and we may now argue that the time has probably come, as it does in an analytic treatment, for replacing the effects of repression by the results of the rational operation of the intellect.
