I know we are all aware that this week is Thanksgiving week. A week to take some time to reflect and rejoice in all that you have and all that you have experienced. Let’s also take some time together to look briefly at some things in our leadership and personal journey that can all be used to help us grow and become better. It’s a matter of perspective.
Today be Thankful for the Trials. They are never fun to go through and deal with but trials are a part of life and can be used to make us wiser and better.
I also believe that the trials we go through, as a leader and as a person, are preparing us to help someone else through the same thing down the road. The trials that we go through can all be used for good if we will let them.
Learn from your trials and then be alert to the opportunities where your experiences can be used to help someone else through the trials they are going through.
Good times and bad times… All meant for your good and to be used to help someone else.
