Never complain and never explain.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
