  • Stay focused, write up a concrete, specific plan of action, 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and stay focused on it.
  • Work on it - Everyday!
  • Find the people and resources to help you, anything, anyone that will give you a chance. Search them out. Ask. Ask. Ask

  • Get out there, be energetic, be positive, have integrity, meet and work with your peers, and promote, promote, promote.
