Thank you for your thoughts, Mike! I believe in the notion of "paying it forward" and your post captures the heart of that approach: What a great way to begin a new week!

Though there are common interests in any community, each member does have unique gifts.  Authentic leaders pour out their unique talents in service of the rest, setting an example for others to emulate.

Though I actively invest in my customers and my industry peers, I do see a need to increase my investment with my co-workers who serve in different business functions. Thank you for your encouragement to "rebalance my portfolio!"
