John Wooden

prepared when opportunities come up

A lot of folks that I talk to are wondering if going to school or going back to school would be the best option for them. I get it. It’s hard to work, be married, have kids and go to school. It may not be necessary for your job, but for those of you that think it might be good for you, even later in life, go ahead and do that. It will just be harder to do down the road. I’m not saying that college is necessary, but it does prepare you for something later on in life. I think John Wooden says it best…

“When opportunity comes, it’s too late to prepare.”

It doesn’t matter if it’s school we’re talking about. That’s just good advice.

Can you think of something that’s happened in your life that came up and you just weren’t prepared for it?
