The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Wherever you are - be all there.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Well done is better than well said.
Never complain and never explain.
It's always too early to quit.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
