Always desire to learn something useful.
Wherever you are - be all there.
You never know what motivates you.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
