7. Most people simply accept their lives—they don’t lead them.

8. “Your life is like a book. The title page is your name, the preface your introduction to the world. The pages are a daily record of your efforts, trials, pleasures, discouragements, and achievements.
   Day by day your thoughts and acts are being inscribed in your book of life. Hour by hour, the record is being made that must stand for all time.
   Once the word finis must be written, let it then be said of your book that it is a record of noble purpose, generous service, and work welldone.”
   -Grenville Kleiser
