a book – as soon as it is ended – ~

breath – then collect yourself yourself
and go ahead –

Energy of will & fixedness of purpose.

No man is wretched – if in his energy –.

Break up your mass of kn. [knowledge] &
begin like a little child to learn all anew,
and take nothing for granted.

Registration is good. – Keep a diary
& a com. place [commonplace] book of some sort ~
