Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Never complain and never explain.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Who seeks shall find.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Sometimes, if you don't have kids yourself, it's assumed you won't understand or know how to play a mom, which is kind of silly if you think about it.
