Glen’s words of advice:

I believe that the secret to becoming successful in life is taking it one step at a time, do not look at the end of a challenge just concentrate on getting through it one step at a time.

Learn from your mistakes as you go forward. By doing this, you will reach your goal before you know it. Remember, quitters never win and winners never quit. Also, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Your perseverance is the key to your success. You can only go forward with your life using your perseverance. Never be afraid of perseverance. Your perseverance will never kill you. But it will strengthen you and make you more powerful.

When I went to the Salvation Army Officers Training School, they gave me a folder showing what I would do for the next two years. The courses were college level, and I only had a high school GED plus they kept us busy from morning to night with no summer break. I felt like I was sitting on a beach watching a giant tidal wave coming at me. I wanted to quiet and runway.

Instead, I repeated my favorite Bible verse' I do all things through Christ who strengthens me.' I mentally stepped back and looked at the first thing I had to do and then did it, then taking each task one at a time I made it through with passing grades. Whether you believe the Bible is divinely inspired, it is full of wisdom that can help anyone. It helped me to get two years of college credits .

Yours,
