To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
You never know what motivates you.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Only the educated are free.
It's always too early to quit.
After a storm comes a calm.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Well done is better than well said.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To the extent that we are all educated and informed, we will be more equipped to deal with the gut issues that tend to divide us.
