The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
You wrestle one night, get up the next morning and fly out to the next city. You try to work out, you try to get some food into you and, lo and behold, you have to go work again. You are living out of a suitcase.
