Spending fifteen minutes thinking about what you are going to do before you start will save four hours of wasted time later on. Any individual who has thought through her workday, set priorities, and organized the days’ tasks is likely to accomplish far more than someone who randomly moves through the day.
- James W. Botkin
People who have a tendency to mindlessly start a task without planning things ahead are doomed to fail, whereas people who draw out the bigger picture before starting anything are likely to succeed. Lincoln once said “If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend six sharpening my axe.”- those who follow these words will be closer to success. A small difference in routine can determine success or failure.
