In everyday life, it’s better to be valued than needed.
Being needed creates dependency in others and obligation for you. You feel worried and guilty about letting them down.
Being valued grants autonomy. Your help is appreciated but not expected on their road to self-reliance.
@dorkitude We recently intentionally got to the airport in MSP early to experience the new Delta lounge. Despite our Delta creds that used to work, we were told we basically need an Amex Stratosphere Superspace Intergalactic Card to access it now.
I have a template that I use when mentoring someone. The template outlines the responsibilities of their current role and their potential future role. I use yellow stickies to keep track of efforts that support those responsibilities. I am thinking of creating a template for the @figma community. Would you be interested in using it?
You're fortunate if you have a great manager who keeps track of your accomplishments. Ultimately, though we are our biggest advocates. No one else will put as much effort into our growth as we will. That's why I think it's essential that we track our accomplishments ourselves and not rely on others to do it for us.
What do you think?

Bookstores rely on UPS -- and we are no easy feat! We love our UPS guy and he, and all UPS workers, and all workers, deserve dignity, safety and fair pay.
After topping out at 97°F today, Las Vegas has failed to reach 100° for 291 straight days.
This breaks the all-time longest streak of consecutive days below 100° set in 1964-1965 (290 days). Temperature data for Las Vegas goes back to 1937. #nvwx#vegasweather
If I have to email event organizers to ask for accessibility info, it means I have to ask, "am I welcome?"
Consider how it feels to have to do that, knowing the majority of the time, the answer is "no."
Give access info up front. Don't make disabled people beg for inclusion.
