- Never do today that which will become someone else's responsibility tomorrow.
- If work was so good, the rich would have kept more of it themselves.

Focus on the controllable
Posted by

Posted on
3:13 AM
In life we have two categories of events:
those which we can control, and those which we can't control.
Success, they say, involves distinguishing between the two
and directing your energies toward the controllable
while having the discipline to not waste time and energy on that beyond your control
Quote by Ron Sirak
