Set high standards and live up to them. And, in living up to them, if you have to fail many a times or pay a high price, be prepared.

Fight a high battle. Be your own hero. Heroes don’t have to cry in loneliness on their pillows, right? That’s one nice thing about being a hero: you can sleep peacefully; you don’t have to wet the pillow. That doesn’t mean that you have to be one of the silver-screen heroes.

Remember the high standards I am talking of. Set those high standards wisely, with love and understanding, and then do what it takes to meet them.
