“A determined soul will do more with a rusty monkey wrench than a loafer will accomplish with all the tools in a machine shop.”
- Robert Hughes
MY THOUGHTS:
You can have all the tools in the world, but they will not mean a thing if you lack determination. And it has to be true determination – the kind that you feel from your heart and you feel in every inch of your body. I truly believe that with determination, you can make things happen.

It’s kind of like exercise. I’ve heard many people say, “I need to get a membership to a club and get in shape”. Well, how about just making the decision, put together a plan and find all the ways you can exercise without a gym membership. Once you’ve shown your commitment to exercise and made some progress, then maybe you should join a club for the additional exercise opportunities. It’s really more about the mental game, than it is about having the right tools.
