P E E R T O P E E R : I L T A ' S Q U A R T E R L Y M A G A Z I N E | W I N T E R 2 0 1 9 9 I would say do not be too hard on yourself. Accept that you will make mistakes throughout your career; use every misstep as a learning opportunity and squeeze out as much learning as you can by talking it over with people you trust and admire and whom you know will be brutally honest with you. Each misstep – used well – will bring you one step closer to wisdom.

The best way to learn and advance is by connecting with your peers! S E C R E T A R Y Chris Hunt Sugarman, Rogers, Barshak & Cohen, P.C. hunt@srbc.com Don't worry so much. In hindsight, I wasted a lot of ener (and a tossed in a good dose of self-sabotage) in worrying about not knowing enough, not having a master plan, not being polished enough. A career takes work and time but being open to possibilities will hone what really speaks to you.
