Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Well done is better than well said.
