You will take many exams in your life. Prepare well and you will be fine.

I am 37 and still taking 3 hour written exams.  My finger and wrist are killing me!  However, I’ve done it and it feels good.
Did I pass? Well that might be another story.

On to the next one!

  
Remember not to take life so seriously.  Even if you are in a position of power, remember that we are only human and we can only perform to the best of our abilities.  You are where you are in life because you achieved it on your own.  Nobody has the right to put you down.  Don’t take things personally.  Let it go. Everything will be all right!

Tomorrow is another day to take on the world!

Remember what it was like when you were two! Carefree and happy!

Work smarter not harder.  This was told to me by your grandma (MaMa Young).  For some reason it always stuck.  A lot of other wisdom from not grandpa and grandma as well which I will share in time.

So what does this mean? Well early on in life like in you teens-early 30’s I want out to work hard.  harder than you think is hard enough.  Put in the hours and just know it will pay off.  Even if it’s mundane work you’ll learn how to do it quicker faster and more efficient.  Spend time learning shortcuts and finding shortcuts. 

Don’t recreate things (reinventing the wheel).  Make things better.  

When you get to my age you should be working less and making more.

Also do what you enjoy and don’t let anyone take that away from you.

Balance your life the way you want.  You are in control.  And for those things you can’t control – let God guide you.

The first step to success is getting out of bed.
