Now I don't have to. Seriously, it was on my list of things to-do. As you suggest, I recommend people start by looking at what others have done first using recipes: http://ifttt.com/recipes .

Reminds me of another great saying - Everyone wants to win. Chamoions *prepare* to win. Doing the hard, boring stuff (and doing it well) when nobody else is looking is key.

Particularly the part about staying enthusiastic even when the work gets difficult or boring. We're all enthusiastic as long as the work is fun.
