ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT: don’t judge other culture’s rituals and traditions until you fully understand their meaning. I used to complain about certain Chinese dinner and drinking traditions when I would travel to China on business. Recently , I took the time to dig a little deeper to understand the meaning and history of those traditions and I now know that are not based on some loose history but are mostly based on honoring coworkers and business associates and expressing a high level of respect. Some examples- the round table- allows no “head”, everyone is the same. lowering your glass during toast- shows respect for the other. Walking around the table toasting – taking the time to show respect and appreciation. Serving food to visitors- respect. I will not complain about these traditions anymore. I encourage you to take the time to understand the meaning of unique traditions from other cultures when you have the opportunity.

COT:
NMTA Not Meant To Arrive
There are 4 Pillars of arrival:
Can’t arrive. This is a negative mindset. You don’t believe in yourself and we need to fix that immediately.

Has arrived. You’ve made it, now what?
You’re not trying anymore. Afraid to take chances, because you might lose the title. Do not stop. Continue to set goals!

Will arrive. Once XYZ happens, then I’ll be happy. There are people sitting in nursing homes right now, still waiting on XYZ.

Not meant to arrive. This is where we should all strive to be! Become the next best version of yourself. Enjoy the journey just as much if not more than destination.
My development has no end. There is always more to learn, always more to do, and you can learn from every situation and everyone.

Be “Blissfully Unsatisfied!” Brothers!

”Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.“
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37‬:‭4‬ ‭NLT‬‬
