8. How to Survive Keep up with daily work including reading homework
I cannot possibly teach you everything you need to know – you need to be self-motivated
Put forth your best effort at all times, even when nobody is giving you credit or “points”
This is true for life
Breathe
Allow me to help – I will push and challenge you and I will help you
Have fun and laugh
Take a step back and look at the bigger picture
