I
GOT
TENURE
a
year
earlier
than
people
usually
do
.
That
seemed
to
impress
other
junior
faculty
____________________

?
Wow
,
you
got
____________________
early
,
?
they'd
say
to
me
.
?
What
was
your
secret
?
?
I
said
,
?
It's
pretty
simple
.
Call
me
any
Friday
night
in
my
office
at
ten
____________________
and

Of
course
,
this
was

people
want

I
find
the
best
shortcut
is

I
see
it
,
if
you
work
more
____________________
than
somebody
else
,
during
those
hours
you
learn
more
about
your
craft
.
That
can
make
you
more
efficient
,
more
able
,
even
happier
.
Hard
work
is
like
____________________
interest
in
the
bank
.
The
rewards
build
faster
.
The
same
is
true
in
your
life
outside
of
your
job
.
All
my
____________________
life
I've
felt
drawn
to
ask
long
-
married
couples
how
they
were
able
to
stay
together
.

of
them
said
the
same
thing
:
