Today I’m returning to my circle of knowledge theory: Learn-it, Do-it, Teach-it. Passing California state boards gave me the legal license to practice the trade I’d been studying four years. It was the culmination of a dream I’d held for the previous 10 years. And finding a job in Paso Robles brought me into the second part of my life’s cycle of knowledge, the Do-it phase. I was ready and eager to apply the knowledge I’d mastered.
