Advice
If I could share one piece of advice about my time here to my past self or anyone that asks me is to simply be a sponge and soak everything the fantastic the dreadful the average soak it all in. Before I began internship I was anxious honestly, anxious in seeing if I could meet my expectations, the expectations of my family, and from my institution to perform at a spectacular level because my father send me to this country to represent our family and better my knowledge and I could never give him or Hofstra anything less than my best regardless of my results. But, as the time went on I found it was better to worry about the task at hand rather than spend my time worrying about expectations of what can be because the added stress and anxiety only hindered my mental state and it was only when I decided to live in the moment of my work and my interactions with supervisors that I felt true peace and solice and I know that as long I show consistent care and precision in the work I do and the preparation of tasks the results will come along. As a mentor of mine once said “The shot does not matter as long as the mechanics are sound because the shot will eventually follow” and I know I fully understand what he meant.
