Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Never complain and never explain.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
It's always too early to quit.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Who seeks shall find.
I take mentoring very seriously and I am on the board of an organization called Girls Write Now, where we match teen girls and writing mentors because it changes their lives.
