If you are looking to start your flying career or you have already commenced your flight training, here are important tips that I feel you should be conversant with to avoid having a serious incident or accident on your profile.

1. Stay focused: During your flight training, it's important to stay focused on the task at hand. Be present in the moment and avoid distractions. 
2. Be prepared: Make sure to go through all the pre-flight checklists and have a clear understanding of the flight plan. 

3. Listen to your instructor: Your flight instructor is there to guide you through the process. Listen carefully to their instructions and ask questions if you're unsure about something. 

4. Practice makes perfect: Repetition is key when it comes to flight training. Practice as much as you can to build your skills and confidence. 

5. Stay calm: Flying can be stressful, especially during the early stages of flight training. Stay calm and remember to breathe. 

6. Learn from your mistakes: Mistakes are part of the learning process. 

Don't beat yourself up if you make a mistake. Instead, learn from it and use it as an opportunity to improve. Remember, flight training is a challenging but rewarding experience. By following these tips, you'll be well on your way to becoming a confident and skilled pilot.
