“Dreams: Why Every Second Counts." By Chris Mentillo "Success and failures are generally considered a slow process, because you either are slowly building things up, or you are gradually tearing them down. And that is why I say you have to pay attention too. You have to watch. You have to watch every single second. Because those seconds turn into minutes, and those minutes turn into hours, and hours turn into days, and days turn into years. So in that second which already went by, will turn into everything I just said; so in those seconds you will either be building ground, gaining ground or losing ground within seconds. So every second count, so make every second count.”
