Learn the job
Learn the job,
do the job,
pass on the job.
I blinked and now here I am.
20 plus years ago, I was just getting started on this amazing journey.
Little did I know what I was in store for.
I wish I could have known then what I know now.
I can't change that, but I can make sure the next generation does.
Be sure to stay a student of this wonderful craft.
Always focus on the basics.
They always work.
It goes by quickly.
Make sure you have something worth passing on.

I've been reminded on the importance of being patient. A person can only do so much. I've learned that having this new goal has made me excited on overcoming these new obstacles. I've been...
