How You Start Is Important, Very Important, But In The End It Is How You Finish That Counts. It Is Easier To Be A Self-starter Than A Self-finisher.

It Is A Great Mistake For Presidents And Other Leading Executives Of Organizations Having Branches Throughout The Country To Chain Themselves To Their Desks At Headquarters And Send Out Rigid Instructions To Those In Charge Of Distant Branches And Offices. Because A Man Sits In A Palatial Office In New York Or Chicago Or Philadelphia Or Detroit And Draws A Big Salary, It Does Not Necessarily Follow That He Knows Better Than The Man On The Spot What Ought To Be Done....

First Make Sure That What You Aspire To Accomplish Is Worth Accomplishing, And Then Throw Your Whole Vitality Into It. What's Worth Doing Is Worth Doing Well. And To Do Anything Well, Wheter It Be Typing A Letter Or Drawing Up An Agreement Involving Millions, We Must Give Not Only Our Hands To The Doing Of It, But Our Brains, Our Enthusiasm, The Best - All That Is In Us. The Task To Which You Dedicate Yourself Can Never Become A Drudgery.
