To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Know or listen to those who know.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Who seeks shall find.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
I discovered that in a story I could safely dream any dream, hope any hope, go anywhere I pleased any time I pleased, fight any foe, win or lose, live or die. My stories created a safe experimental learning place.
