The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
I can, therefore I am.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
You never know what motivates you.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Know or listen to those who know.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Put a bridle on thy tongue set a guard before thy lips, lest the words of thine own mouth destroy thy peace... on much speaking cometh repentance, but in silence is safety.
