Your favorite sayings.

[Ronni]

One of my most favorite sayings is "Don't look back...you're not going that way!'

When my kids were little a favorite was "Do not prepare the road for your child. Instead, prepare your child for the road."

I still use this one as motivation to begin difficult tasks "The longest journey begins with the first step."

What about you?
