Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Only the educated are free.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
I was fortunate enough to have my kids early, so being a mom always ended up being a better gig than these other parts that came along. So I always justified not really working a lot because I had a family.
