Here's to those who have the belief in themselves and the solutions they can offer and possess the courage to stay the course, even in the midst of a pandemic.
Here's to those who insist on excellence and take no shortcuts.
Here's to those who work quietly and feverishly behind the scenes until the spotlight finally arrives.
Here's to those who contribute to others endlessly, selflessly, even when they forget who it was that helped them when they needed it the most. You still step up to the plate again and again with the same spirit of contributing to others, regardless of gratitude or praise.
Here's to those that may not be part of a tribe but don't need to lean on one because they're driven internally. You'll be successful with a community of colleagues in many industries no matter what. It's nice when others show up, but your success and your vision carry on with or without them. Stay focused!
Here's to those who appreciate talent and camaraderie from a client or colleague when they do show up. And who are smart enough to know never to let them go and always will appreciate them fully.
Here's to those who maximize every opportunity and leave no stone unturned until it's all on the floor, then quickly press ahead to find even more opportunities.
And here's to those with a relentless pursuit of excellence for themselves first so they can contribute powerfully and deliver amazing outcomes to all who look up to them and are counting on them to win.
