Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

<Mark Twain>

Give just as much regard and respect to the advice and ideas of others as you do to your own ideas. Think and consider the ideas of others, just as your own. This is what it means to give regard to the ideas of others

Better to spend 10 minutes doing something than 1 hour thinking about something.

Each day/week set small achievable goals.  This will get you started and you will feel you are making progress.

The story goes that "Thomas Edison failed more than 1,000 times when trying to create the light bulb".

When asked about it, Edison allegedly said, "I have not failed 1,000 times. I have successfully discovered 1,000 ways to NOT make a light bulb."
