Pep Talk: Sometimes there’s just no time to study, research, or even brush up on all the information you’re expected to know. So when the real life application appears, you get that “I’ve never seen this shit before in my life” pit in your stomach. Ok, that’s fine, everyone is surprised sometimes. You could bs your way out of this or you could genuinely try. I bet, with all your life experience, you know what this situation calls for. The info is already swimming around in that big brain of yours. Coax it out with thoughtful questions and sincere interest… or pretend to have pink eye and go home.
Today remind yourself: The answer is already in my brain.
