Being a productive member of a team or society at large means knowing yourself. You may not like who you are, but you always can fix that.
· Our inner selves
· Are always on display,
· Whether we like it or not.
· Talk to the owner about that.
We get thrust into the public every day and must be prepared to do and be our best. Don’t show up without being honest with yourself, knowing what’s needed, and doing what it takes to be ready to effectively play your part. Don’t put others in a situation where you’re not supporting them as much as you want and need them to support you. Whether it’s rushing to finish your homework on Sunday night or taking the time to ground yourself for your challenges at work, you owe it to yourself and others to be on time and in the moment. Don’t settle for being less than prepared and trying to ‘wing it’ – others will notice and while they may not say anything then, they won’t forget it later. Wrestle with whatever needs to be wrestled with and give your angels a reason to sing. Don’t be any less prepared than you hope and expect others will be today.
August Wilson (1945 – 2005): American playwright often referred to as the "theater's poet of Black America" and best known for a series of ten plays collectively called The Pittsburgh Cycle.
