The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Who seeks shall find.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Know or listen to those who know.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Well done is better than well said.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
