Who am I?
I am your constant companion. I am
Your greatest helper or heaviest burden.
I will push you onward or drag you down to failure.
I am completely at your command.
Half the things I do you might just as well
Turn over to me and I will be able to do them
Quickly and correctly.
I am easily managed- you must merely be firm with me.
Show me exactly how you want something done and
After a few lessons I will do it automatically. I am the
Servant of all great individuals and, alas, of all failures, as well.
Those who are great, I have made great. Those who are failures,
I have made failures.
I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine
Plus the intelligence of a human. You may run me for a profit or run me
For ruin- it makes no difference to me.
Take me, train me, be firm with me,
And I will place the world at your feet.
Be easy with me and I will destroy you.
Who am I?
