title: Life Lessons: From Alpha to Omega
author: Richard H. Schmidt
description: "Some things can't be taught in schools, they must be learned through experience, trial and error, and hard knocks." The lessons of the book's title are those Schmidt did not and probably could not have learned in school. They aren't so much facts and concepts as states of mind and acts of will. Most of the lessons contained in the book came to the author through trial and error and relecting on mistakes and misunderstandings. Some emerged out of a time and pain and disillusionment. It is when a relationship is strained, a project botched, or an idea scorned that creative reflection and growth occur.

  things.
  
  
  I still expect you to attend all your training sessions and report to Falcon
  if there
  
  
  are any problems. Your mother and I will be calling every day to check up on
