The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
One thing that was passed on from generation to generation in my family, over seven generations in 200 years, was never give up. That's the way we live.
