To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Never complain and never explain.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Who seeks shall find.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
I think I've learned that if you want to be successful, you have to tell your story honestly and from your heart - and I think a healthy sense of humor doesn't hurt either.
