He is totally right about this. It takes small tasks that are done well to make sure that you do the big tasks perfectly. Just like anything in life, taking small steps before you take the big one helps a ton. One example I would use for this would be homework. All that homework that leads to a big test is very important. If you don't do that homework. Or do a sub-par job at it, then the test is going to be harder. The better you do small tasks the easier big ones become.

I love these two words. They are prevalent in virtually every part of life, including mine. But they can also be the opposites of each other. No-matter how hard we try, everyone lies. Maybe because they fear the truth, maybe the fear the re-precautions of telling the truth, maybe its because they have lied so much they believe it. Honesty I believe is a very big part of being a good person. Lying and deceiving people around you is very low in my opinion. Honesty gives you integrity, it cements you as a person. People that lie a lot are more likely to not be themselves, and wasting their time and energy for something they are not. I do my best to be honest at all times, but like I said everyone lies. I have fears too, a lot of them. I think that that is okay, as long as they don't control me. I am afraid of being alone, and having no one to turn to. But that's what friends are for, what family is for. I know that no matter how scared I feel, there will be someone I can turn to. Strong relationships are built through honesty, not lies. I am glad that I have people in my life I can rely on, for any of my fears or problems.
Les Brown says that many people fail at life because "not because they aim too high and miss, but they aim too low, and hit". This is a really powerful statement that is very true. Most people want to succeed but they think that aiming too high will make them more likely to fail. I think that it is very important to aim for the skies, even though you might not make it all the way. You will make it higher than the people that don't aim at all.
The path to success varies for everyone, these are 3 things I think are very important. Whatever your passion is, you need to be enthusiastic about it. It has to be a sincere enthusiasm. Someone who is pressuing medical schooling, is not going to be exited about something like designing and building a new structure for a city. And if that is the case, you need to be sincere with yourself so you don't go to the wrong path. Success also doesn't come easy, or fast. It takes time and the patience to keep going even when things look rocky.
