“Its not the load that breaks you down; its the way you carry it.” Lena Horne
How can I help you? A question that so easily parts my lips. I am always helping someone even at times when I am the one standing in the greatest need. I always ask myself, why it is so easy for me to recognize when someone else needs help but harder for me to ask for help of my own. The answer is always the same. I don’t want to be a burden. But when you are surrounded by people who are truly for you, dividing up the load is not a burden but a blessing. No man is an island.
I have learned that trying to be everything to everybody, will leave you depleted of all your energy. Learn to delegate. If you are the only source of information within your circle, either it’s time for a new circle or you have handicaped your circle. We can not become hoarders of information. We must empower others to grow and reach their full potential. Remember someone is watching you climb, leave a trail for them. They will thank you later.
