If you haven't heard yet, I'm currently working on my next book! I'm interviewing 100 people who have achieved a dream in order to find out what really goes into making a dream you have a reality. Is it possible? What can we learn from those who actually achieve their dreams?
What I've been learning so far has been more exciting than I can express.
I recently shared a bit of what inspired this book (as well as what I've learned so far) on Huffington Post, and I wanted to share it here with you since the article shares some tips that I know can also help you as you work to achieve your dream of graduating from college.
I hope you ROCK your spring semester!

10 things to do before you graduate college
I recently read an article on a college website that said things like getting a fake ID and getting drunk in vegas were "must-do's" before you graduate college.

A lot of the items on their list seemed more like good ways to get arrested than to have a successful college experience.
So...
My list is a little different. It might not be attractive to the college party-hards out there, but it's guaranteed not to have you found passed out on a street (unless having a rockin' awesome successful college experience makes you faint). ;)
10 things to do before you graduate college
1. Travel outside the country
2. Join a club based on a culture outside your own
3. Visit your college career center
4. Become president of a club
5. Take a random elective that fascinates you
6. Job shadow someone with a job that interests you
7. Do something that's always scared you
8. Mentor a HS student or freshman to help them through college
9. Have a conversation with a professor outside course content
10. Lead a new initiative, project, or event on your campus
