“Mr. Morgan, in this envelope I hold the guaranteed formula for success which I will gladly sell you for 25,000 dollars.”
An old gentleman approached John P. Morgan, a world-renowned financier. Morgan said that he would be willing to pay for it if he liked it, and he opened the envelope and took out a sheet of paper. Then, without a word, he paid the agreed-upon 25,000 dollars to the old gentleman. The paper read:
1. Every morning, write down a list of the things that need to be done that day.
2. Do them.
