Concentrate on what you do well, and do it better than anybody else.

A difficult time can be more readily endured if we retain the conviction that our existence holds a purpose a cause to pursue, a person to love, a goal to achieve.

We speak of waves in a storm as "sea horses." Like wild horses, impetuous and irresistible, a man can drown in them, but if he can ride them in a wellfounded ship (as a man rides a horse which carries him), they can support him on his voyages.

As we express our gratitude, we must not forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

Look at frustration as a positive thing. It is the frustration that drives you to improve.

Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation. Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
