Randy, we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from? Resilience can come from various sources, and inspiration from their surroundings can significantly influence many. Throughout my life, I have found inspiration within my environment. Observing family, friends, and others throughout the world community endure hardship has taught me the meaning of perseverance, especially when faced with adversity. I learned about faith and how to manifest more favorable outcomes through faith and work. I often drew upon the adage, “What doesn’t kill me only makes me stronger.”
