Do, each day, all that can be done that day. You don't need to overwork-or to rush blindly into your work, trying to do the greatest possible number of things in the shortest possible amount of time.

It's not so much the number of the things you do but the quality, the efficiency of each separate action that counts. . . . you need only to succeed in the small tasks of each day. This makes a successful day. With enough of these, you have a successful week, month, year-and lifetime.
