The Small Town Boy Makes It Big: Wilson Finds His Own Brand of Success
Realizing that engineering was not really what he wanted to be doing, Wilson went back to school, this time to pursue his MBA at the University of Calgary. He graduated in 1985 and began to work as an investment banker with McLeod Young Weir (now ScotiaMcLeod). There, he was told to "sit down and shut up" in order to learn from those who had come before him.

Lesson #1: “Entrepreneurs have to be willing to stay the course”
“It was hard not to enjoy the success we were having, doing a deal a day,” says Wilson of the early days with FirstEnergy. “It was enthralling to be at the office. I got as caught up in my career as any investment banker could be.”
Get into the action habit .
Are you a do it now person? There is a shortage of leaders who have the ability to get things done, to get results. Most people procrastinate much to often.

The successful person takes action, will follow through on ideas and gets things done. The average person will delay and find excuse why he can’t. University of Calgary professor Piers Steel states “In 1978, only about 5 percent of the American public thought of themselves as chronic procrastinators. Now it’s 26 percent.”
