Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Always desire to learn something useful.
I can, therefore I am.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
