In truth, the only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success.

The only certain means of success is to render more and better service than is expected of you, no matter what the task may be. This is a habit followed by all successful people since the beginning of time. Therefore I saith the surest way to doom yourself to mediocrity is to perform only the work for which you are paid.
