Ready for Anything by David Allenby Parker on Twos"An hour of effective, precise, hard, disciplined, and integrated thinking can be worth a month of hard work. Thinking is the very essence of, and the most difficult thing to do in , business and life. Empire builders spend hour after hour on mental work... while others party. If you're not consciously aware of putting forth the effort to exert self-guided integrated thinking, if you don't act beyond your feelings and you take the path of least resistance, then you're giving in to laziness and no longer control your life." - David Kekich"The ancestor of every action is a thought." - Ralph Waldo Emerson"Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought." - Henri Bergson
