Leaders with a history of success have developed a habit of working hard to achieve their success.
Vince Lombardi said, “Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.” How does winning become a habit? Sarah Knowles Bolton, a press correspondent and author of the late 1800s, wrote several books that summarized the lives of successful people: statesmen, artists, and scientists, to name a few. In her research she found that “The victory of success is half done when one gains the habit of work.”
The word habit is usually associated with something bad that needs to be stopped. Hard work is one habit that you can be proud to claim. Does your history of success show that you have developed the habit of hard work?
