"In life there is one inescapable fact; at some point you’ll have to pay your dues. My suggestion is front-end-load them. Work hard now, while you’re here. Study hard, develop the learning skills you’ll need to be successful, and prepare yourself for your career by never turning down an opportunity to gain more knowledge and better yourself.
