Your success in life and work will be determined by the kinds of habits that you develop over time. The habit of setting priorities, overcoming procrastination, and getting on with your most important task is a mental and physical skill. As such, this habit is learnable through practice and repetition, over and over again, until it locks into your subsconscious mind and becomes a permanent part of your behaviour.
There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.
Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement.
Whatever we expect with confidence becomes our own self-fulfilling prophecy.
