Learn this great secret of life: What people call interruption or disturbance to their routine is just as much a part of living as the routine. To split life into two parts, one called routine and the other called interruption, is to be caught between them.

Persistence prevails, like a stream that is temporarily blocked by boulders and then collects force enough to overflow onward.

Instead of fighting your problems, picture your way out of them.

Resistance to the disturbance is the disturbance.

Be teachable. That is the whole secret.

The need to impress others causes half the world's woes.

It is against the law to permit weak people to steal your strength. Never permit it.
