We all want the “sweet stuff,” but we have to work for it, and this often means to be ahead of the game.
In this next part of my 10-day preparation series for the NABJ convention in Boston, I want to encourage you all to be on time early to sessions!
You shouldn’t do it just because it’s the right thing to do, but because you don’t want to rob yourself by missing out on valuable information and opportunities to grow. (You also don’t want to disturb anyone’s discussion.)
Of course, things happen that we have no control over– like my hunger that caused me to be late one time and I had to stand in the back (well, that’s not a real excuse, haha)– but to try to avoid things like this, plan ahead.

Don’t wait on your friends either if you see that time is ticking down. And don’t be scared to sit in the front (if you want to chat with some of the panelists, you’ll be first in line to do so).
So are you excited for the convention yet? Then, tweet this! And feel free to join in on the conversation by sounding off in the comments below or by using the #NABJcountdown hashtag along with the official#NABJ14 hashtag.
