Tired, and Trying to Spread the Word

 

   Wow! first week down at school, when you aren't a student very often, going back to class once every 18 months can wear a guy out!!   I started my advanced term for plumbing school, when i'm done the class in 2 months and pass, I'm eligble to write my papers and be a full fledged journeyman, and the world is mine!!  But its hard work, and just as taxing on you as being on the job, but the reward is worth it.

 

   My friend has a nine month old baby boy, she is stressed, and a single mother, i help her out when i can, and have trying to get her on the "TOOLS", i honestly feel that if can help me focus, over come fears and organise my life a step why shouldn't it do the same for her.  I understand she is busy, and commend her on being so strong to take do this on her own, she makes contant excuses as to not try program, and even pokes a little fun at me in the process. 

   That bothers me, i am one of her biggest supporters, but feel a little cheated by the way she sees "TOOLS"

  I've gotten a few people stoked on the "TOOL" and all thanks to my brother.

  I"m not sure what to blog some days, this just seemed to be on my mind,

   Now time to study for my first test of the year.

I appreciate you and

appreciate you trying to spread the word.

 

Don't let other people's attitude pull you down. In fact, what I always tel people is that the best way to attract people to Tools is be a magnet.

 

Meaning make you the best you that you can be. As you do, people will be pulled into your energy and ask you, "what are you doing, you seem different?" It will happen as you make you better and beter.

 

I know you want to help her, and help her by being the best you and be a magnet that pulls her in.

 

Great success on your test...

Good Luck

As a fellow tradesman I know exactly how you feel about the schooling end of the apprenticeship levels, I can't believe how much you almost have to change your mindset when you head back to the class room.  I find that 8 hours of book work more exhausting than 40hrs of regular work.....You are right the reward is way worth it.  Keep at it bro!

Good Luck!
