Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Wherever you are - be all there.
