By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Who seeks shall find.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you think you can do it, you can.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Well done is better than well said.
The first book I wrote was The Bride Price which was a romantic book, but my husband burnt the book when he saw it. I was the typical African woman, I'd done this privately, I wanted him to look at it, approve it and he said he wouldn't read it.
