Believe in love at first sight.

Volunteer. Sometimes the jobs no one wants conceal big opportunities.

Use your past successes as a trampoline, not an easy chair.

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.]

Drive inexpensive cars, but own the best house you can afford.

Ask yourself if you would feel comfortable giving your two best friends a key to your house. If not, look for some new best friends.

Let perseverance be your engine and hope your fuel.
