To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Know or listen to those who know.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
After a storm comes a calm.
Never complain and never explain.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
