By George Matthew Adams (1913)

Dig.

Dig right through every obstacle. Fight to uphold the dignity of your Purpose. Dig, bore, squeeze, sweat — but get through!

Dig. The regular, persistent drop of water will wear away the hardest stone. Science says that the even, rhythmic step of an army has power to start the wreck of the strongest bridge. In like manner does determined effort win anything — anywhere. To believe so, start to-day to — Dig.

Dig! You see the other fellow carrying away plenty of “Bacon?” Dig. You failed in many things yesterday? Dig. You want money, reputation, glory? Dig. Mental, moral, or financial Bankruptcy stares boldly at you? Pay no attention. Just — Dig. Success is not a thing inherited. To get it you must — Dig.

Dig. Every man or woman who ever won at anything knew how to — Dig. It is the “A’’-word of the Alphabet of Doing.

Dig. No matter WHAT you want or WHERE you want it, or WHEN you want it, you must first know how to Dig — or you won’t get it. Dig.
