Why Preparation is Key to Success at the FAA Academy

In this episode, I talk about what may just be THE MOST IMPORTANT thing you can ever do to help you as a student at the FAA Academy.Being prepared for the Academy is NOT a choice! It is something that you either do, or not. Once you make the choice to not prepare, you will probably never get a chance to change that decision, and that is so very unfortunate.There are 4 major areas that you need to make sure you have prepared for BEFORE you get to OKC:AcademicMental and EmotionalLifestyleExpectations vs RealityI go over each of these areas as well as giving you insight into the "Why" of some of the things the Academy does.Understand this: Talent helps, but Preparation determines who survives and thrives at the Academy.Thank you very much for listening!
