The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Who seeks shall find.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Well done is better than well said.
I'm hopefully touring with Colin Baker next year in Perfect Strangers. I have performed with Sylvia Simms in poetry and music evenings. I would love to do those for the rest of my career - they are so fun and witty.
