As Neil Armstrong once stated: “You only need to solve 2 problems when going to the moon.  First, how to get there, second, how to get back. The key is don’t leave until you know how to get back”.

In our case, you’re also working on solving 2 problems:

1. Getting to the moon: how to get educated and re-skilled on the Salesforce platform

2. Getting back to earth: how to land your 1st Salesforce position

As you put the time and energy into #1, in parallel, please also start putting a strategy in place to accomplish #2.

Inevitably, #2 will most likely be longer, harder, and more frustrating than #1, but Neil and Buzz accomplished both, why can’t you?
