“Good intentions may be an appropriate starting point for achievement, but they will go nowhere unless you follow through with action. Many people confuse intentions with achievement; after all, it is the idea that is most important, they reason.

Developing the habit of action may be difficult at first, but the more you practice it, the easier it becomes.”
— Napoleon Hill
