The one thing you should know – everything, I mean everything, is fixable. So don’t worry about doing something wrong. There is no wrong, only better. With that said, start by looking around your place. What needs to be done? With a few key tools and a little gumption, you will no longer have to endure an endless litany of excuses when it is time to ask for help. Roll up your sleeves and start your first project with a fearless and positive attitude.

Imagine your honey’s surprise when he asks if you need his help to hang that curtain rod, and you smile and say, “No, thanks. I can do it myself.”

Stuff a 40-Something Freshman Says

• Hey…Captain Obvious…laying on your horn in the parking lot traffic gridlock really isn’t helping.
• You’re not as interesting as you think you are – use your ‘inside voice’ in the hallways and between classes.
• Are you really so tired you need to lie down in the hallway between classes? Five Hour Energy drinks…get some. 
• Did Mommy pick your classes and make you take one on Friday? Complain to her then.
