The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Know or listen to those who know.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
