Things I Learned While Breathing on a Regular Basis (ePub)

Why would someone who in his early academic years was a C minus student in all subjects relating to the English language write a book? My beginning started when I realized what going to basketball camp in the fourth grade meant to me. Finding something that infatuated me and over time, making slow and steady progress while doing something I loved, was an eye opener. I didnt mind the effort required to become a better player.

The next important step was getting married and understanding how important is was to have a sense of purpose. I was part of team that was raising a family. A sense of purpose is a great motivator.

My final driver was realizing my children and grandchildren should understand that I wasnt a grandfather from birth. Growing up is filled with a multitude of highs and lows, and it is important to move forward, taking the good with the bad. I wanted to give them a taste of the things I learned over time.

In the early stages of life, so many young people have absolutely no clue as how much they will learn, growing physically and intellectually as they advance from teenagers to young adulthood. My suggestion is, find something you love to do early in life and decide to be very good in your field. There are no losses from this strategy as you will find something meant for you or something to stay away from. For me, it was important I stay away from engineering.
