What was the best advice ever given to you? A former player on UDVB told me before I went that it will be hard, but there is no use in complaining because either way you're still going to get the hard thing over with and done. Your choice is the attitude you approach the task with, and everything about this program will be more enjoyable if you choose to be positive while completing whatever it is in front of you.
