Who Am I?
WHO AM I?
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 of the things you do you might just as well turn over to me & 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 & after a few lessons I will do it automatically.
I am the servant of all great men; & 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, & I will place the world at your feet.
Be easy with me & I will destroy you.
Who am I?
I am HABIT.
