Diligence

Leadership falls to the diligent.

Those not diligent work for someone else.

Diligence assumes responsibility; meets deadlines; keeps promises; studies all the areas of your business; keeps at a thing until it is completed.

The American Heritage Dictionary defines diligence as; 1. Earnest and persistent application to an undertaking; steady effort; assiduity. 2. Attentive care; heedfullness.

Without diligence we forfeit control, influence and leadership not just in other's lives, but also in our own.

Diligence takes discipline too.
Goes hand in hand.
I need to be more 'D'.
