TAKE AWAYS Never live anywhere where you have to cross a bridge to get to work. Early diversity, late specialization. Nature AND Nurture. Don’t plow your field with a Ferrari. Excellence is a transferable skill. Decompression is hard. Canadians need to improve at he way they support their Olympic athletes. Say YES to opportunities.
