How to Coach Yourself and Others Essential Knowledge For Coaching | Seite 387

Consider this: Who Am I? You may know me : I'm your constant companion I'm your greatest helper; I'm your heaviest burden I will push you onward or drag you down to failure I am at your command Half the tasks you do might as well be turned over to me. I'm able to do them quickly and I'm able to do them the same every time if that's what you want. I'm easily managed, all you've got to do is be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want it done, after a few lessons I'll do it automatically. I am the servant of all great men and women, of course, servant of the failures as well. I've made all the great men who have ever been great. And, I've made all the failures, too. But I work with all the precision of a marvellous computer, with the intelligence of a human being. You may run me for profit or you may run me to ruin, it makes no difference to me. Take me. Be firm with me and I'll put the world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you. Who am I? I am habit! “Success is a matter of understanding and religiously practicing specific, simple habits that always lead to success.” *Robert J. Ringer* 1256
