Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
I can, therefore I am.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
