My mindset has always been, The redfish of today has the potential of being the Whale of tomorrow.
I have been on this platform 3 years today. I have had the pleasure to assist in @theterminal and other places to lift-up other folks when they were starting out in my small way. Some of those folks are much more influential then I am now!
Reminds me of a conversation with a Lieutenant I had years ago, when I was a Sergeant in the Marine Corps...
Lieutenant: Sergeant Lamb, your Corporal does a better job in the FDC and Leadership than you do!
Me (addressing the Corporal): Who trained you in FDC methods?
Corporal: You did Sergeant!
Me: Who influenced your promotion to your current position?
Corporal: You did Sergeant!
Me (addressing the Lieutenant): Looks to me, sir, that I am pretty good at my job!
Lieutenant: Carry-on Sergeant!
Me (addressing the Lieutenant): Aye, aye sir!
I believe my greatest skill is seeing the potential in others.
