Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Well done is better than well said.
Leap, and the net will appear.
After a storm comes a calm.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
