Long walks and how to start a task

The following two are from Dan Galvin's Thought For The Day mailing list:

I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.
-Noel Coward


As Mary Poppins says, well begun is half done:

It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect its successful outcome.
-William James, psychologist and philosopher (1842-1910)
