I have advanced so much more in my career by having a good attitude as opposed to having an impressive education history.

This is the most insightful God's Honest Truth ever! I remember my neighbor telling me before I went to basic training that I will find out I am smarter than most of the people I will encounter in the military. I don't know if he was right or not, but I got through it with a positive mental attitude. Eventually, I received an AS in Criminal Justice and a BA in Political Science. Those degrees got me a commission in the US Army.
