Piss Poor Preparation, Promotes Piss Poor Performance, Piss Poor Performance Promotes Pain.

What is ‘Time’

Time.

Time is all we ever need.

Time is how we succeed.

To be early is to be on time,

to be on time is to be late,

and to be late is unacceptable.

What are ‘Excuses”

Excuses are the tools of the weak and

incompetent,

used to explain the failure

of an attempted task

and to build monuments

of nothingness.

Those who use them

will never be successful.
