Beware of Businessman Bill

I must beware of Businessman Bill.  He lives in my head.
He can't wait to jump up and enthusiastically approve of
my heading in a less than admirable direction to get what I want.

He's always very convincing and is a master at justifying the most
errant nonsense.  Unfortunately, the ends never justify his means
and I am always left further from my goal and down the road of ruin.  

So, take it from an unfortunate soul who has fallen for Businessman 
Bill's enthusiasm more than I care to admit and avoid his assurance
with all your will because if you do not you'll regret
you listened to Businessman Bill.

When you are deciding between the good and the great
please take time to hesitate.  If you hear Bill whisper the following,
stop in your tracks because if you do not,  you will wish that you had.

"Everyone does it."
and
"No one will know."

And by all means DO NOT BE FOOLED by his famous last words...

"This must be God's will!"

Morning? Already?

Does everybody have to deal with this tremendous conflict each morning?
