Imagine reaching a point in your life where you looked back over the years and deeply regretted not having done something you wholeheartedly wanted to do. Now imagine the reasons. Did you not pursue your dream goal because you put yourself second or third to everything and everyone else in your life? Or maybe it was because you were afraid to try and become dejected over not being good enough to “make it immediately?”

Listening to your show is what gave me the courage to follow my dreams, and it’s working.
My first dream job was to work for a major league baseball team at 17. It took me six years to get that job. I did. Then I wanted to work in the media. I did. Then I studied for my BA beginning at 37 years old. I did. I wanted to become a community college teacher which required an MA.. I did and finished writing a 135 page thesis at 52. My journey hasn’t been a field of cotton candy. Hard work yes. Perseverance is what it’s about. And a deep belief in self. Or as Thomas A. Edison said, ““Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety-nine percent perspiration.”
Last December at age 42, I received my EMPA (Executive Masters in Public Administration) with a 4.0 GPA in 18 months and paid in full with no student loan debt thanks to Tom’s inspiration! Just remember when you’re slugging through the most difficult part of the program and struggling with your thesis, it absolutely CAN be done! Thanks, Tom!
