To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Always desire to learn something useful.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
I do believe that most men live lives of quiet desperation. For despair, optimism is the only practical solution. Hope is practical. Because eliminate that and it's pretty scary. Hope at least gives you the option of living.
