I am habit
by John Di Lemme

I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper
or your heaviest burden. I will push you onward or drag
you down to failure. I am completely at your command.

Half the things you do, you might just as well turn over
to me, and I will do them automatically. I am easliy
managed; you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly
how you want something done, and I will do it quickly and
correctly. I am the servant of all great men and women,
and all failures as well.

Those who are great, I have made great. Those who are
failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine, though
I work with all the precision of a machine, plus the intel-
ligence of a human being. You may run me for profit or run
me for ruin, it makes no difference to me.

Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I will place the
world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you.

Who am I?

I am Habit.
