Good morning, it's Gordon So from Social Media Currency. This morning I'd love to share with you a poem about habit. So here we go.

Half of the tasks that you do, you might just as well turn over to me. And I will do them quickly and correctly. I am easily managed. You must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done. After a few lessons, I will do it automatically. I am the servant of all great people and the regret of 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, but I will work with all its precision, plus the intelligence of a person. Now, you may run me for profit, or you may run me for ruin. It makes no difference to me. Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I will lay the world at your feet.
