The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Only the educated are free.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
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.
