Years ago, I expressed my doubts about pursuing a desired graduate certificate due to challenges like distance, cost, and managing it alongside full-time work. In response, my mentor said, "You've told me all the reasons why you can't; now tell me why you can." 🤯 So simple, but it completely shifted my perspective.
