"Presumption is
a rash expectation of salvation without making proper use of the necessary means
to obtain it."
And...
"We may be
guilty of presumption (1) By putting off
confession when in a state of mortal sin; (2) by delaying the amendment of
our lives and repentance for past sins; (3) by being indifferent about the
number of times we yield to any temptation after we have once yielded and broken
our resolution to resist it; (4) by thinking we can avoid sin without avoiding
its near occasion; (5) by relying too much on ourselves and neglecting to follow
the advice of our confessor in regard to the sins we confess."
