Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Who seeks shall find.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Being around some of the bright lights of the technology world and having them expect great things helps you sit down and do it seriously.
