I've had this picture of Barry Sheene hanging up in my bedroom for over 15 years now, along with a quote he made written below.

It still remains the best bit of advice I have heard in life, and even on some days when I am finding something difficult, I often look at the picture and read the quote out loud to myself. It really helps.

'For God's sake just pick up the blasted phone and ring the girl.'

Actually the best piece of advice I didn't follow.
