In this episode I am joined by Lenny Primak to Help answer a listener mail and to discuss setbacks in your life and career. Lenny has some inspirational statements to help you through challenges in your caeer.
Announcements:
Just a clarification on how the Aerospace Scholarships guide is updated: A new edition of the book comes out once per year. Periodically during the year we do add some additions or make changes based on changes that organizations make to their scholarships. However the best way to get the latest information is to become a member of the site. The online directory has the latest information and the latest scholarships that we have found, and it is only $10 per month! Membership also includes access to several videos and other information only for members.
