If you are angry, why not try this. Write a letter. Pour out all of your feelings, describe your anger and disappointment. Don't hold anything back. Then put the letter in a drawer. After two days, take it out and read it. Do you still want to send it? I've found that anger and pie crusts soften after two days.

When you are angry or frustrated, what comes out? Whatever it is, it's a good indication of what you're made of.

Judge your success by what you had to give up to get it.

Don't burn bridges. You'll be surprised how many times you have to cross the same river.

Become the kind of person who brightens a room just by entering it.

Remember that almost everything looks better after a good night's sleep.

I never expect to lose. Even when I'm the underdog, I still prepare a victory speech. [Optimism through positive expectations can help to bring about what is desired and makes the wait more enjoyable.]
