PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE - Summer 1999This message is from our Stand Together Seminar booklet (now called the Be An Eleven Guidebook to Success) entitled “The Five Power Axioms for Success.”By Greg Shepard Published: Summer 1999 Winners Make Goal Choices and Form Positive Habits _________________ ABOUT HABIT I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper, or your heaviest burden. I will push you onward, or drag you down to failure. I am at your command. Half of the tasks you do, you may just as well turn over to me. I will do them quickly and correctly. I am easily managed, but you must be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done. After a few lessons I will do it automatically. I am the servant of all great people; of all great failures as well. Those who are great, I have made great. Those who are failures, I have made failures. I am not medicine, but I work with 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 lay the work at your feet. Be easy with me, and I will destroy you! Who am I ? I am called HABIT. HABIT IS MY NAME! |
