80% Solutions
When I decided to start my graduate program two years ago, I had a young family, a full-time job, and a consulting business. This period has taught me the value of the 80% solution. The 80% solution means that all things do not need to be perfect if it is not a matter of life and death. Do you spend the extra hour doing homework or getting your son ready for bed and reading him his bedtime stories? My GPA has lowered, but my quality of life has increased.
