The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Know or listen to those who know.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
It's always too early to quit.
Leap, and the net will appear.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Only the educated are free.
That song is a story that shows how easily you could get slipped into being labeled as the bad guy, even though what you really trying to do is tell the bad guy to leave you alone.
