In truth, I’m just like you: no better, no worse
Though, I may have started off worse...
After getting laid off from my first job, I never felt secure in my position.
So I decided to take the CPA (Certified Public Accountancy) exam.
At the time, it was considered the most difficult certification exam, with only a 15% first time pass rate.

Overwhelming to say the least!
I decided it might be good to learn memory and learning techniques.
Thought the time I put upfront could save me much more in the long run.
Sure enough...it did!
I found tools like mind mapping and speed reading that were really helpful.
…and I passed the exam!
This Got Me Thinking...
Intelligence is overrated.
I used to think either you had it or you didn’t...
And if you didn’t, there was a level of success that was not possible.
