Keep your attention focused entirely on what is truly your own concern, and be clear that what belongs to others is their business and none of yours.

In short, the way to wealth, if you desire it, is as plain as the way to market. It depends chiefly on two words, industry and frugality; that is. waste neither time nor money, but make the best use of both.

All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.
