Know or listen to those who know.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
After a storm comes a calm.
I can, therefore I am.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
I would say the most help I got was from my dad. My dad is a civil engineer in Switzerland he's 90 years old now, so he's no longer active as a civil engineer, but still a very active person.
