[quote]1. Develop a command of the English language, for it is the door through which all other doors are opened to you. 2. Whatever goal you are trying to reach, whatever dream you are trying to realize; formulate a written plan made up of smaller steps, then prioritize and execute! Always be thinking about it, always be working towards it, and never give up. 3. Understand that you are always only seeing a partial truth which is part of a whole truth. While you see that it is day, it is night somewhere else. However, day eventually becomes night. So it is with all opposite points of view, so argument of them is fruitless. Strive for objectivity, eliminate egocentricity. 4. Much gathers more, and loss leads to greater loss. Focus on the short term wins to remain optimistic. 5. There is a constant battle for your attention. Focus only on what is important to the task at hand or that which furthers your goals.[/quote] A single tear ran down my cheek as I read this.
