The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
It's always too early to quit.
I know it sounds new age-y, but what I've truly come up with is that you really need to trust that you're on your own path, as long as you stay true to it and you show up, which is 99% of it.
