Employed

I pursued business as my main subject at university because I enjoy it, which is my first nugget for you. Choose courses you genuinely enjoy. Chase your own dream not somebody else's. My choices have played a huge part in my career, especially as I teach business as my main subject.

The next goal of nugget is to stay curious ask lots of questions, why? Because you deserve the answers. The more you ask the more you learn, knowledge gives power but character gives you respect. That's the next goal of nugget, character. There's an old saying those with good intentions makes promises, those with good character keep those promises. So be mindful of the company you choose, because it can have a big impact on your character.

The final golden nugget for me is to have a plan. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. If your plan has to change that's fine, plan again and keep planning until your happy.
