Most of my days are jam-packed, but every month I set aside time just for mentoring. I get to talk to people and help guide them. In the process of doing that, I discover so much and get joy out of people’s experiences. I try to be really honest. I talked to a guy last night who just got promoted. He said, “I told my wife, ‘You’ll probably never see me.’ ” I said, “Well, call her back and tell her that you were just kidding, because that’s not okay.” Jobs don’t love you back. People do. And the more we keep that in mind, the better everyone will be.- Latriece Watkins
