Who am I?

I am your constant companion.
I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden.
I will puch you onward or drag you down to failure.
I am completely at your command.
Half the things you 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 but you must merely be firm with me.
Show me exactly how you want something to be 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've made them great.
Those who are failures, I've made them failures.
I am not a machine, though I work I with all the precision of a machine
plus the intelligence of human.
You may run 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 ?
