IF YOU WANT A JOB DONE PROMPTLY AND WELL, GET A BUSY PERSON TO DO IT. THE
IDLE ONE KNOWS TOO MANY SUBSTITUTES AND SHORTCUTS. Most of us will never
know our true capacity for achievement because we never challenge ourselves
to perform at our best every day. This truism becomes apparent when you are
presented with an opportunity that really interests you. No matter how busy
you may be, somehow you will find the time to pursue it. Conversely, duties
that have little appeal for you are easily postponed and eventually
forgotten. Busy people are not procrastinators. They know that life, as John
David Wright once observed about business, "is like riding a bicycle. Either
you keep moving, or you fall down." The most effective people have a sense
of urgency. They set deadlines and force themselves to establish priorities.
Even if your activities don't usually require strict deadlines, set them for
yourself. You will be amazed at how much you can accomplish in a short
time-if that's all the time you have.
