@AndrewPlaTech I once spent 15.5 hours flying from Singapore to San Francisco, wide awake without a pair of functional headphones. It took me weeks to recover.

You can rise above this. It doesn’t define you. I am here to help. LET’S DO THIS!

The other day I had a great opportunity arise in my work. On Friday, I decided to take my family to dinner to celebrate the goodness of this new opportunity. Just as I wrapped my last call of the day,

I know that life is hard. I understand that every single one of us is struggling with something. And I know that most of us feel utterly alone amid that struggle. But, make no mistake, I hear you, I see you, I am one of you.

I don’t know about you, but those are the opportunities that I am going to seek out. Will you join me? Will you show compassion when it matters most?

What about you?

So often in my life I have stumbled. Many times I have fallen. In the moments that follow, the content of my character is on full display. I strive to live in such a way that those who see me would say: “Though he did fall, he had the courage to rise again, and again, and again.”
