The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Well done is better than well said.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Never complain and never explain.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
