Is there anything else you'd like to share?
It's not going to be easy, but easy is boring. You will be challenged in every way, but overcoming challenges paves your path to success. You will need to take risks, but those risks sweeten life. You might have failures, but the learnings from those failures become knowledge, and that is power.
