I have learned some things that may be useful to share with you.

I am of an age where I am considering what I have accomplished and leave to this world in which I’ve laughed and cried, failed and soared, reverted and grown, extinguished and shone for a number of decades – essentially, what is my legacy. What can others learn that does not require them to experience first hand the costly lessons of my life? What foundation can I leave on which others can build?

In a nutshell, I believe I’ve learned that everyone knows stuff and each of us has a significant value, even if it’s not judged on someone else’s scale. And my career of the past twenty years is solid evidence of the value of that professionally.
