I really like Roosevelt’s quote. A lot of times, people say they are planning on doing “X”, but, only after event “Y” happens, or if they can just get one more “tool” for the project, then they will do it, and they delay action. Roosevelt just believes that action needs to be taken right now.

Kind of like Thomas Edison’s quote that genius is one percent inspiration and ninety nine percent perspiration.
Action is the Key!
