If you've got a talent, protect it.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Well done is better than well said.

Know or listen to those who know.
