Good morning, Friends! Remember… It’s not how much weight you can lift; it’s how much you can carry. Personal and professional accolades and achievements are wonderful, but remember that they are simply outcomes. Growth and development happen incrementally through our consistent efforts. It’s almost always part of the iceberg that everyone else doesn’t see. Have faith. Believe in yourself, keep grinding, and focus on the weight you carry. Have a wonderful day, folks. TS
