Q11: Significant lesson - career
What is one lesson that you've learned that has proven significant in your career? That's a big question because there are lots of things I could say.
But I think the biggest thing I can think of is really learning how to learn. If you have an open mind, you can really learn whatever you want to.
It's just a matter of effort and time. Being able to learn efficiently and effectively is probably the most important thing I've learned. It's the ability to pick up new things as easily and efficiently as possible.
