Today, you got a day older.
That’s a good thing.
Our #1 goal should be
to get older.
But that also means
there is one more day difference
placed between you
and shiny new grads,
folks who have (hopefully) spent
the last 4 or so years
of their lives
learning the most current skills
and information.
They’re younger,
have more energy,
enjoy the power of youthful optimism,
and they want success
…badly.
You, however, have
the power of experience
and a longer lifespan of
accumulated learning.
If you constantly learn,
no one,
not even a fresh grad,
not even someone
with more raw natural talent,
will know more
or be as skilled.
Your age will be an asset,
not a liability.
Today, you got a day older.
Are you a day wiser?
