You are what you do

The beginning of a habit is like an invisable thread.
Every time you repeat the act you strengthen the strand.
Add to it another filament with each repetition,
until it becomes a great cable
and binds you irrevocably to each thought and act.

First you make your habits,
and then they make you.

Your thoughts lead you to your purpose.
Your purpose always manifests into action.
Your actions form your habits.
Your habits decide your character,
and your character fixes your destiny.

Your habits are either the best of servants or the worst of masters.


-- Max Stein
