Productivity is never an accident. It is always the result of a commitment to excellence, intelligent planning, and focused effort.

Determine what specific goal you want to achieve. Then dedicate yourself to its attainment with unswerving singleness of purpose, the trenchant zeal of a crusader.

Plan your progress carefully; hour-by hour, day-by-day, month-by-month. Organized activity and maintained enthusiasm are the wellsprings of your power.

Most time is wasted, not in hours, but in minutes. A bucket with a small hole in the bottom gets just as empty as a bucket that is deliberately kicked over.

Enthusiasm glows, radiates, permeates and immediately captures everyone's interest.

A burning desire is the greatest motivator of every human action. The desire for success implants 'success consciousness' which, in turn, creates a vigorous and ever-increasing 'habit of success'.

Do a little bit more than average and from that point on our progress multiplies itself out of all proportion to the effort put in.
