The habit grows, as all habits do.
"Lose this day loitering, 'twill be the same story To-morrow, and the next more dilatory; The indecision brings its own delays, And days are lost, lamenting o'er lost days.
"Are you in earnest?
Seize this very minute.
What you can do, and think you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, magic in it.
Only engage, and then the mind grows heated; Begin it, and the work will be completed." Many people lose in the aggregate whole years of time out of their lives for want of system.

They make no plan for their days.

They let duties mingle in inextricable confusion.

They are always in feverish haste.

They talk continually of being overwhelmed with work, of the great pressure that is upon them, of being driven beyond measure.
