Knowledge and productivity are like compound interest. Given two people of approximately the same ability and one person who works ten percent more than the other, the latter will more than twice outproduce the former. The more you know, the more you learn; the more you learn, the more you can do; the more you can do, the more the opportunity... Given two people with exactly the same ability, the one person who manages day in and day out to get in one more hour of thinking will be tremendously more productive over a lifetime.

A step at a time. A pebble at a time. Making a difference.

I've got myself not one, but two new toys for the holidays... *smirk* Although, the ultimate toy would have been the Wii... I'll wait until it gets DVD playback cuz I'm lame like that.
