The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Who seeks shall find.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
I think that my past stands me in good stead in that it does have a certain strength for musicians.
