ADVICE

Building Thinking Strength

  • Gain real-world experience and learn by doing, focusing on how to simplify challenges.
  • Build confidence by focusing on the next step, not the entire goal. Action creates momentum and subsequent confidence.
  • Know your strengths and weaknesses; amplify your strengths instead of just fixing weaknesses.
  • Be accountable for your mistakes, actions, and responses, learning from them.
  • Take control of your trajectory, regardless of your current position or past circumstances; today is the day to start.
