If you've got a talent, protect it.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Know or listen to those who know.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
