“Hold yourself to a higher standard than anyone else expects of you. Never excuse yourself.”

“‎Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself. Never pity yourself. Be a hard master to yourself-and be lenient to everybody else.”

“You have set standards for how you want to be treated and what you expect from yourself and for yourself.”

“You must assertively hold yourself to a standard in which you keep yourself in line but don't tear others down. Holding yourself to a standard in an aggressive manner imposes your will on others, essentially tearing them down. And if you take the aggressive approach but to a weak standard, not only are y...ou tearing others down, you are being hypocritical.”

“Don't judge yourself by someone else's standards. You will always lose”

“...you realize that you don't understand yourself any better than you understand anyone else.”
