MESSAGE #579 - IF YOU FAIL TO PREPARE, YOU’RE PREPARING TO FAIL . . .

"The will to win is

not as important

as the will to prepare

to win.

Everyone wants to win,

but not everyone wants

to prepare to win.

Preparing to win is

where the determination

that you will win is made.

Once the game, or test, or

project is underway,

it is too late to prepare to win.

The actual game, test, or project

is the end of a long process

of getting ready, in which the

outcome was determined

in the preparation stage.

So if you want to win,

you must prepare to win."

This quote comes from

“Sixty Seconds to Success”

by the great Edward W. Smith


I liked Ed’s book so much

that I wrote a testimonial for it . . .

Sixty Seconds to Success is an incredible book.

Ed Smith is a motivational genius. There’s a pep talk

on every page!”
