Throwback Thursday: 2/22/13

In honor of Throwback Thursday, we're going back to February 22,2013 when motivational speaker, Mr. Al Duncan, came and spoke with our Barstow youth group.

Mr. Duncan not only gave us inspirational words and advice (called Duncan Nuggets), but also created an activity showing us the art of the handshake.

While attending this motivational speaking event (at the time a 1st year WIA student and freshman in college), I learned how to give a good handshake, and also remember his tips for college students.

1: Utilize the resources around you.
2: Get connected.
3: Invest your time.

The Career Institute has helped me with all three. They showed our youth group what's available on-campus, offered different opportunities to get involved not only with them but also on and off campus, and did an entire session on time management and the importance of using our time wisely.

If you live in Barstow and are interested in how the Career Institute can help you, come by our office or check us out online (www.cinow.org).
