What I have found is this "have to" mentality really sets us up for failure or gives us an excuse to not do something we didn't want to do in the first place.

When we "have to" do something, we put ourselves by default and automatically in victim mode/position.

This is just my opinion, but if you really wanted to do something, you wouldn't put it off. If you find yourself in a position where you are continually "having" to do something, you might want to rethink why you are even faced with things you "have to" do in the first place. Whether it's work or something you want to explore as part of your personal development. Isn't it so much easier and non resistant to simply say ...I WANT to do this, or I GET to do this?

Just my 2c
