Make It a Habit to Finish What You Start 

“Laziness is nothing more than

the habit of resting before you get tired.”

Mortimer Caplin, educator and lawyer  

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Make it a habit to finish what you start

Nothing gets done until you make the commitment to finish the things you start. Things left undone have very little positive value and actually will become a drain your resources and your energy.

Things left undone can tarnish your reputation and have negative effect on your business and business relationships.

Many times the difference between success and failure is a thin slice. That thin slice of getting the job done in an effective productive manor.

Finishing a job you start is a habit, a habit of success. Make the choice to follow the pathway to success and to make it a habit to finish what you start.

Finish What You Start

Motivational Power Quote

Finish What You Start

“Much of the stress that people

feel doesn’t come from having

too much to do.

It come from not finishing

what they started.”

David Allen, author

As I see it. . . . . . . .
Finish what you start


Reduce your stress . . . . Finish what you start.


When we start a project and leave it unfinished we create anxiety. That anxiety will grow under the weight of unfinished work and will create stress.


The weight of that stress feels like we’ve mentally carrying 100 pounds of excess baggage around with us every minute of the day. As the weight of that baggage continues to grow will become both physically and mentally exhausted to the point to where we can’t successfully function.


Stress causes sleepless nights, worry, inaction and poor decisions. Under stress we not longer function effectively and our thinking becomes distorted to the point where we are not longer productive.


Finish what you start and the stress will evaporate.
