  2. Showing up is half the battle for most anything. Woody Allen has another quote that I like that goes something like, “I’m not afraid to die I just don’t want to be there when it happens.”

    Duane,

    Incredibly, just showing up and being on time will put a person ahead of the crowd. And if a person does a good job to boot, they will be in rarefied air!
