Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life: How to Unlock Your Full Potential for Success and Achievement

MAKE EVERY MINUTE COUNT
Get into work before anyone else gets there, and when you do ar-
rive, begin working immediately. Don’t waste time reading the
newspaper, drinking coffee, or socializing with co-workers. Develop
a reputation for being the kind of person who is always working,
and always working on high-priority tasks.
Work all the time you work. Discipline yourself to keep yourself
focused on the most valuable use of your time. Don’t allow other
people to put you “off your game.” When you have coffee breaks or
lunches, have them when they best suit you, not when they best suit
the clock.
