Be An Apprentice
Excellence takes time, and to achieve it you have to adopt the mindset of an apprentice. To think like an apprentice:
- Watch, listen and be present in the process.
- Practice often instead of waiting for your Big Break.
- Accept that few become great on their own and learn from whoever accepts to teach.
- Offer to help the experienced in their missions. They will like you better and may become “patrons”.
