An instructor should exemplify the things he seeks to teach. It will be of great advantage if you yourself can do all you ask of your students and more.

As an instructor, you must be able to distinguish between poor performance caused by lack of ability or aptitude on the part of the student and poor performance caused by lack of effort. You should treat the first with patience and the latter with firmness. You must never apply sarcasm and ridicule.

Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless like water.

The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Mistakes are always forgivable if one has the courage to admit them.

If you think a thing is impossible, you'll make it impossible. Pessimism blunts the tools you need to succeed.

Don't pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.

Always be yourself, express yourself have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.

The successful warrior is the average man, with laser like focus.
