Never give up. Never give in. Never allow yourself to be seduced by the orgy of ego if victorious. And if at any time you lose, never give that loss any more power than it deserves, if any at all.

Take comfort in their ability to reach their destination.
And always remember that they can get to where they are going because you not only pointed out the way, but also led the initial journey and drew up the maps.
Keep those fists up, brothers and sisters.
