Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Never complain and never explain.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Know or listen to those who know.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
