Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
It's always too early to quit.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Never complain and never explain.
You never know what motivates you.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
You always have in the back of your mind that would be cool if you get recognized. But you can't concentrate on any of those things. You've got to just keep playing and doing your music and the rest is just a bonus.
