Humans Can Win

Today was a day. Today was going to be difficult but doable. That is until my wife’s surgery was rescheduled 2 hours earlier than planned. And then everything became infinitely more complicated. I am grateful to my customers who understood and moved our meetings. I am grateful to everyone who understood – even those who have been pushing, pushing, pushing for speed and progress. I am grateful, that although we all have things that need doing, or fixing, or implementing, or solving – that humanity and empathy led every interaction – from customers to coworkers. I am grateful.

My wife is recovering right now as I write this.

Also, I should have taken the day off. The days of trying to do everything are over. Some things should always take priority, and your significant other’s surgery should always make that list.

Lesson learned.
