I AM A HABIT (Part One)

H-A-B-I-T…When 95% of people hear this word, a
negative thought pops up in their minds, because
most people think of a habit being negative. The
secret to your future lies in your daily habits so
ask yourself right now, “Are my habits today going
to help me achieve my WHY in life?”

I received the following excerpt from a very dear
friend of mine and felt that it is definitely the
best explanation of a habit that I have ever heard:

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 completely at your command.
Half the things you do, you might just as well turn
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 men.
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 man.
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
put the world at your feet.
Be easy with me, and I will destroy you.
Who am I?

I am a HABIT!
