What’s one thing you wish you had started doing earlier in life?
I’m sure there are hundreds of things I wish I could have started or done earlier in my life. Two things stand: First, starting to read books. I grew up in a small Midwest farming town, and I was always outside playing. Reading never came into my mind until I got my first Nancy Drew book. Don’t know why my mom gave it to me, but it started me on a journey.

The second thing can drive me crazy thinking about it. Why didn’t teachers/parents teach children how to study??? I mean they give us homework after all. While my younger sister never needed to study, I found that I could get Bs without any worries. I thought as long as I read the material, I should be fine. Then someone created a study group and gave me a completely different way to learn and remember the material.
Why do we tell kids to do something without explaining how to do it? Well, done with soapbox.
