Teach others how to excel. In teaching you learn twice.

Probably a good idea to reserve your helpfulness for two groups:

  1. Those who ask.
  2. Those who’ll pay.

Time is wealth.

So is health…

Health is wealth.

Knowing today’s weather will be cloudy and rainy, we cancelled (in advance) our plans to leave the apartment at 4:40 AM to walk to the beach for sunrise.

We also include one weather day for every seven days.

Meaning, plan for a day where you can’t do anything outside.
