He also emphasizes living according to principles like honesty, service, and hard work to avoid failure and maintain integrity. Jaliawala encourages readers to take responsibility for how they respond to situations and not make life overly complicated.

Unveiling the impostor
Life in academia can be very fulfilling: On the path from being a master student to a senior professor, we achieve mastery, we have a lot of autonomy in our work, and we have the nice purpose of improving human knowledge.
However, we are often struggling. Because life in academia is very competitive and sometimes isolating, a difficulty that a lot of us face is the lack of confidence in our own capabilities, work, and achievements. This can lead, for example, to procrastination, to the fear of asking questions, or of applying to a high-level position...
I hope this talk will be the occasion to discuss how we can manage to turn these difficulties you (or your colleagues) face into advantages.

【业务选择办理准则】
一、工作未确定，回国需先给父母、亲戚朋友看下文凭的情况，办理一份就读学校的毕业证【微信：A575476】文凭即可
二、回国进私企、外企、自己做生意的情况，这些单位是不查询毕业证真伪的，而且国内没有渠道去查询国外文凭的真假，也不需要提供真实教育部认证。鉴于此，办理一份毕业证【微信：A575476】即可
三、进国企，银行，事业单位，考公务员等等，这些单位是必需要提供真实教育部认证的，办理教育部认证所需资料众多且烦琐，所有材料您都必须提供原件，我们凭借丰富的经验，快捷的绿色通道帮您快速整合材料，让您少走弯路。

我们所定的价格是非常合理的，而且我们现在做得单子大多数都是代理和回头客户介绍的所以一般现在有新的单子 我给客户的都是第一手的代理价格，因为我想坦诚对待大家 不想跟大家在价格方面浪费时间
