FOLLOW THE PATH OF OTHERS TO SUCCESS
You can learn from other people to make up for Your lack of experience in any area of life.
Be open and receptive to people around you. They have things to teach you. Take advantage of the people that have made the Journey ahead of you.
Try to pick the right role models. Don't look for people that make you feel good or entertain you. Look for people that can help you.
Role models are more than people you like and admire. The key is to look for people that will help You to be more successful. You can learn from the mistakes of others. You can learn different approaches to overcoming challenges.
Learning what not to do is as important As learning what to do.
Success depends on using not opposing.

Interesting. When I first quit, I looked to all the non-smokers for strength and guidance. I was amazed to discover how calm they were. It always seemed that everyone at the office was as stressed as I was but when I quit smoking, I found that though everyone was indeed working hard, they weren't as stressed as I was or used to be. It was the nicotine that made me so jumpy. I found that many took natural breaks and refreshed themselves with fruit or cheese. I had not seen any of that when I was a smoker.
