As I reflect and make changes, I wanted to share this with all.
"Habit"
I am your constant companion.
I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden.
I will push you onward or drag you down to
failure.
I am completely at your command.
Half the things you do might just as well be
turned over to me and I will be able to do
them quickly and correctly.
I am easily managed--you must merely be firm
with me. Show me exactly how you want something
done and after a few lessons I will do it
automatically.
I am the servant of all great people and,
alas, of all failures, as well.
Those who are great, I have made great.
Those who are failures, I have made failures.
I am not a machine, though I work with all
the precision of a machine plus the
intelligence of a person. You may run me
for profit or run me for ruin--it makes no
difference to me.
Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I
will place the world at your feet. Be easy
with me and I will destroy you.
Who am I?
I am HABIT!
