Yesterday I felt empowered that I, just one person can do so much. As a toastmaster and woman to be help co ordinate the Lee Denim Day Event at my workplace, NAD. It is it the first group initiative that the company has allowed staff to participate in and the response from colleagues was tremendous. While speaking with a friend, I realized this was the first Cancer related or theme event that I had ever voluntarily and enthusiastically participated in with a whole heart and it felt very rewarding. As though I had conquered a fear or faced something I had once seen as unbearable or a no-talk topic. I also liked that the thank you letter showed a connection between manager and Employee to show others that it is possible and that titles do not segregate us when a cause or the value of a human life is involved.
This morning I smiled thinking to myself that it feels great to be recognized. To be in a place where your natural talent is appreciated and displayed without hesitation. Many persons: friend, family or co workers has asked my advice on projects, papers, receiving help in an initiative where speaking n persuading others is a must. This is the first time I am have been so vibrant, engaging and social in a workplace and I am loving the feeling.
This is all a reminder that God is in control, and He knew that greatness was in my future, seeking that I join this new employment to find my inner strength.
