Thought for the Day

The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials. Chinese Proverb

I had a chance to attend Oprah's Live Your Best Life Tour last weekend in Denver. She's amazing to listen to, and got me thinking about my life's work.

I've had my share of career challenges and disappointments and made some good choices and some not so good. But, without all of them I wouldn't be who I am today. Oprah said her "biggest lessons come through the hardest lessons," and I know that's true for me, too.

Winning at working means learning as you go, polishing yourself, and discovering the best of who you are.
