This episode is me going through various Terms & Definitions starting with the letter C.
Remember, when preparing for an operator exam, a lot of it is just knowing what certain terms mean and how they apply to water distribution or treatment.

It is important to be humble in victory and gracious in defeat, and to always take the various experiences we face as a lesson to learn from. I do not and have not taken a failure well, and 10-15 years ago I would not have taken this experience the same way.
We have to remain poise through adversity, proud in defeat and keep moving forward. Understand that we won't always win and we won't always lose, but we will always have an opportunity to try again!

Focusing your energy on creating a vision of what you want your life to look like will serve you well!
Having a VISION, needs to be followed up by having GOALS, once these both are achieved it will create a clearer sense of what needs to be done. Align your goals with your actions and you will streamline the game plan to get to the finish line.
Remember, if you are not living the life that you want to now, then how do you think you will live that life in the future if you are not doing anything to support those goals?
Create a Vision, Make a Plan, Do Work, Try some new things & Find the Sweet Spot!!!

As we continue the conversation of Distribution System components, we will discuss, Water Storage Facilities & various Valves.
There is much more to talk about but I have summed much of it up in a quick 20 minutes so that you can listen in on your way to work to get a little study session in.
Remember, as we are studying we want to focus our time in our notes & books for about 15-20mins. at a time to help retain the info we are reviewing. Do this at least 4-6x's per day and you will be more than prepared to smash your state exams as well as apply the learned knowledge out in the field!
