I found this in a book I was reading and thought it was kind of cool. I think as a society we need to develop more good habits and this can help us remember how important habits are.
Who am I? I am Habit
I am your constant companion.
I am your greatest helper and your 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 and I will be able to do them quickly and correctly.
I am easily managed, you must merely be firm and show me exactly how you want something done.
After a few lessons I will do it automatically.
I am a servant of great men and the laughs of all failures as well.
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 place the world at your feet.
Be easy with me and I will destroy you.
Who am I?
I am habit!!!
