You never know what motivates you.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Never complain and never explain.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
