As I celebrate my first thanksgiving as an American citizen and think about this holiday, the first thing that comes to mind is success. People have different ways to measure success, usually involving money and possessions. I evaluate success using different criteria, specifically, progress/growth and happiness. The first one comes from failure. Embracing failure as an opportunity for growth shows resilience and determination. However, overcoming failure alone sometimes can seem impossible. We need people by our side that can mentor and push us to get through those hard times. The support and relationships we develop along the way play a vital role in our success. They provide guidance, encouragement, and a sense of belonging that can help us navigate challenges more effectively. We also need people that will push us down and criticize everything we do, we use those people as motivators. Success can also be evaluated by our overall level of happiness and well-being. Once again for me it seems hard to cherish those moments alone. The people that surround us, our family, friends, coworkers, mentors, clients, teachers and coaches always play a huge part in who we are. So today I just want to say THANK YOU. Because of you I am able to harvest and feast from what I once planted.
Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone at Associa
