The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Well done is better than well said.
Wherever you are - be all there.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
