In this episode I share about my personal health journey and sometimes my motivation to keep with my routine is the external surroundings of being by the river.  The water - whether it be the Gulf Coast, the Ohio River, or a local lake is my happy place. It's my calm when things are turning like a tornado.  

I wanted to share how motivation in learning is often similar in that it needs the motivation to keep it up - especially when things start getting hard.  Technology is an ever-growing and constantly changing field that one can often be overwhelmed when trying to learn skillsets for their future careers.  My best tip that I practice myself and that I advise my students is to find what you really like and dive into it.  This doesn't mean to forget other things in life but once you find that spark - those things that motivate you - explore it.  For me, my personal areas of fascination are in AR and VUI, and as time allows with other responsibilities in life you'll find me creating, practicing, and failing forward in my learning in these areas.  

I tell my students that in your two years with me you'll (hopefully) discover what you love, what you like, what you hate.  My goal is to help fan the flames of what you love and like and help you manage w/ what you hate.  Your goal should be to catch the fire of interest and start working towards that career early on those interests.
