This quote is important to remember when we have a task that we want to succeed at. One reason why i agree with this quote is because succeeding is a big part of life, we need to succeed to make sure we make our mark on the world. In order to succeed you have to do what the quote says. In order to succeed you have to follow through with whatever task you're trying to accomplish which is what the quote says. Bad habits are also sometimes really easy to pick up and that is what the quote talks about also. You need to be courageous and stop doing those bad habits because once you realize they are getting in the way of your success and in general well being, both mentally and physically. I have began doing this and i have seen a bigdifference.
