Good habits make time your ally. Bad habits make time your enemy.

Time is the friend of someone who is properly positioned and the enemy of someone poorly positioned.

Time will multiply whatever you feed it.

Good habits make time your ally. Bad habits make time your enemy.

Learn to use time, think of it as a friend, not an enemy. Don't waste it in going after things you don't want.

Time magnifies the margin between success and failure. It will multiply whatever you feed it. Good habits make time your ally. Bad habits make time your enemy.

If you have good habits, time becomes your ally. All you need is patience.
