    Paul Smith, Red Hat

    New WashingtonExec Series:

    WashingtonExec asked the simple question to top area executives:

    “If you could give your kids only three pieces of advice, what would they be?”

    Today’s insight comes from Paul Smith, Vice President of Government Sales & Operations for Red Hat.

    1)  Hard Work Pays Off.  Life is a marathon, don’t be thinking of instant success.   Pay your dues and overtime you will achieve greatness.

    2)  Be Honest.

    3)  Be Joyful.
