Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
