Get to work. Your work is to keep cranking the flywheel that turns the gears that spin the belt in the engine of belief that keeps you and your desk in midair.

About This Quote

When you get to work in the morning, you aren’t there for a vacation. You aren’t there to relax. You are physically there, but mentally you are already physically in the middle of doing work. Therefore, when you get to work in the morning, you have to get to work.

Get on with your day and continue with your plan. Keep cranking the flywheel that turns the gears that spin the belt in the engine of belief that keeps you and your desk in midair.
