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 you might just as well turn
over to me, and I will be able to do them quickly, correctly. I am easily
managed-you might 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
failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine, though I work with all the
precisions of a machine plus the intelligence of a human being. You may run me
for profit or turn 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
