To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
It's always too early to quit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Always desire to learn something useful.
