Personal best:
‘Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out’ - Robert Collier

Background:
Robert Collier (April 19, 1885 – 1950) was an author of self help, and New Thought books. Collier wrote about desire, faith, visualization, confident action, and becoming your best.

Louis Smith says:
“Being able to perform the skills I do does not happen overnight – you have to work relentlessly to get the smallest of details right and then when you put everything together that you’ve done over the years, you can achieve success – something I think the above quote sums up perfectly”.
