The Importance of Diplomacy

My mother gave me this paperweight many years ago and it still sits on my desk today. The advice she gave me about the importance of learning how to work with other people has been a major influence throughout my life. I share more of this story on my website. https://tinyurl.com/4u69v2ay

Growth rarely happens in isolation. It happens in rooms where ideas are bigger, standards are higher, and the people around you are focused on possibility, not limitation. Growth isn’t just about what you do. It is about who you are consistently around. Surround yourself with positive people who challenge you, support you, and expect more from themselves and from you. https://tinyurl.com/3vcjsx6t

If you want to succeed in life, make your own business better and be sparing in the way you criticize others.

Remember, no one has ever built a statue to a critic. It can be easy to tell other people what they are doing wrong, and it can be hard to do the right thing yourself. If you want to build strong business networking relationships, refrain from giving unsolicited advice.
