As I have found out over the past couple of years, the bigger risks you take in life and the more “differently” you do things than other people, the harder it is to find people that truly support you.  Whether it has been to study abroad, relocate to Arizona, start my own business or any of my other crazy ideas over the years, my Mom has always supported me 100%.  She has never doubted me, questioned my abilities or told me that I couldn’t accomplish something – she only ever asks one question and its always the same one…  How can I help you?  It is so rare to have people like this in your life and I’m so blessed that my Mom is one of those people.

Happy Mothers Day Mom…  I love you!

Students – focus on getting involved in a variety of activities, becoming leaders in student organizations, building relationships with successful professionals in your field of interest and securing internships everytime you have a break from school.  Simply walking into an interview with a college degree isn’t good enough anymore, especially for those of you who are ambitious and have a strong desire to become successful.

Graduates – being in the office from 9-5 Monday thru Friday and doing what your told might not be enough to keep you employed, let alone be promoted.  Look for ways in which you can learn more about your industry, such as trade journals, industry websites, taking on increased responsibilities and offering to take a respected colleague out for lunch to learn from them.  None of these things will guarantee your success, but they will certainly separate you from everyone else who is just trying to keep their job and do the bare minimum.  Combining these learning experiences with a strong work ethic will put you in a much better position.
