Equipping you with the tools you need to succeed.
That Time I Went to Law School
I was always that person who insisted that you should pick a career you love; who cares how much or how little money it makes? I constantly told my parents and everyone who would listen that I wanted a career that I was in love with—one that didn't feel like work. I had big dreams of being a musician or a museum curator. Those were my passions, and, by God, I was going to get a job doing one of those two things and I didn't care how difficult it was.

In a perfect world, education would be significantly different. In New Mexico, it isn't the perfect world that is needed, but at least an adequate one.

Interview Questions You Need to Stop Asking Job Candidates
Job interviews can be stressful for all parties, and more often than you might think the interviewer, not the job candidate, derails the interview. This is usually done through poor, unrelated, or impossible to answer questions. The best interviews should turn into somewhat of a conversation, and this is never accomplished by an interviewer asking a trivial or dead-end question.
Team-Building Activities for Modern Australian Companies
A work-performance study on Australian workers has shown that there are many factors affecting employee engagement, including working conditions, annual wage, and job security. However, there is one more important factor to consider and that is how the employees function as a part of a team. You see, even when the individuals have immense potential and talent, if they are not able to join their strengths with the common goal of making a business more successful, their projects are bound to fail. It is up to the managers to prevent that from happening by building well-connected and well-functioning teams. Fortunately, there are some great team-building activities that can help you with that.

My professor told me to drink. Now, that’s not to say that he was encouraging alcoholism or trying to influence a room full of young, impressionable minds, but he did suggest that us students take a drink. Or several.
Amanda McNeillPublished 7 years ago in EducationFollowing Your Dreams vs. Following Money
When you were a kid, everyone told you to follow your dreams. To do what you were passionate about. Sometimes what were passionate about doesn't necessarily pay the bills. For a lot of people, this is a reality we all face. Now, I'm a millennial (yes, I know), and growing up we were always told we could have it all, just because we wanted it. I discovered growing up that you can't have it just because you want it. So were thrown into adult-hood or "adulting" as we call it, with no experience and no actual education about the world and how it works. There's certainly no financial classes that are mandatory in school (which there should be) so a lot of us are lost when it comes to money. All of my friends in college are so stressed about money. It's an uncomfortable subject. A lot of us end up working for money for the rest of our lives, throwing away what we truly are passionate about because the reality for a lot of people is; passion doesn't pay bills. So what a lot of us do it end up in boring jobs that we aren't passionate about but pay well. Can you have it all?

At one point in my life I started to feel that I wasn’t good enough to achieve what I wanted. I want to tell you, that the thought was WRONG! If you have thoughts like that sometimes, don’t let them bully you into thinking you are not worth anything.
