Dreams

My assignment in my leadership course I am taking for my BSN degree was to watch a video of a lecture by Randy Pausch on childhood dreams. For those of you who have heard it, know what an inspiring speaker he was. I really have nothing to report today but will give these direct quotes from him to dwell on. You can either relate it to the hobby or not, you choose...

"Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted."

"'Brick walls' are there for a reason, they let us prove how badly we want things and show our dedication."

"Don't bail...the best gold is at the bottom of barrels of crap."

"Get a feedback loop and LISTEN to it."

"Don't complain, just work harder."

"Be good at something, it makes you valuable."

"Be prepared- Luck is where preparation meets opportunity."
