The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Never complain and never explain.
You never know what motivates you.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Wherever you are - be all there.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
So it's been a slow process and it's taken some patience. That's why patients are called patients I think - patience is required.
