By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Never complain and never explain.
Know or listen to those who know.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
I have quite a robust relationship with regret. You simply don't know what the alternative would have been.
I hope to have more time to think, to look at the sky, dealing with less crisis management, to learn another language, to travel.
