If my uniform doesn't get dirty, I haven't done anything in the baseball game.
Work hard on your job and work harder on yourself
You are not paid to work hard. In fact, you are not paid for effort at all. You are paid for results. It's not what you do; it's what you get done.
Be the kind of person others admire, can count on, trust, and enjoy spending time with. After you have developed that reputation, people will start to ask you what you do and you will be amazed at how many people will want to work with you. You will attract others based on your character.
I have discovered there are only a handful of good ideas in the whole world. You already know them. You have heard them your entire life. Here are some of the main keys to being more successful: Take personal responsibility. Things change, so be flexible. Work smart and work hard. Serve others well. Be nice to others. Be optimistic. Have goals; want something big for yourself. Stay focused. Keep learning. Become excellent at what you do. Trust your gut. When in doubt, take action. Earn all you can. Save all you can. Give all you can. Enjoy all you've got. Above all keep it simple.
Few people will turn to themselves to take responsibility for their results until they have exhausted all opportunities to blame someone else.
What you think about, talk about, and get off your ass and do something about, comes about.

Sometimes you can think that 'I've had enough of wizards!' And sometimes fantasy is not just about wizards.
