Never complain and never explain.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
It's always too early to quit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
So I really did stop and change what I saw I was about, and really try to put that principle into play as the center of everything - my friendships, my marriage, my career, my family, my way of being in the world. And that changed everything for me.
