If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
