    Trust your choice (about what you love) and if you’re told you can’t – prove them wrong!

    •Seek opportunities
    •Demonstrate the skills (you will get noticed)

    Learn to Say “No” and “Yes”
    •Not all opportunities are equal
    •Know what you’re good at and what you stand for

    Plus:
    “I'm always in problem-solving mode for almost everything.” ~ Jill Tietjen

    The Energy of Possibility

    Everyone has a passion. When you’re engaged in the areas you’re passionate about it's like floating on air - a standstill - because that's where you're supposed to be and what you're supposed to be doing. When you get to a place like that, it's just a wonderful place to be. Find those passions!


    Until soon! Be curious, be inspired, simplify the way…
