Advice For Going Forward

By F. M Fradenburgh

The way to learn to do things is to do things.
The way to learn a trade is to work at it.
Success teaches how to succeed.
Begin with the determination to succeed,
And the work is half done already.
Delay wastes time, weakens the will, dissipates
Energy, discourages ambition, and prophesies failure.
Resolve, and do! Do it now!
Decide, and get at it!

To get along in the world and make for yourself a good name,
You can make no dependence upon mere luck.
Pluck must be your hero.

If a chance does come, it will not help you
Unless you are prepared to take it.
Hold to your purpose.

Be not swerved from it.
Keep at it!
Always at it – this accomplishes results
