On Thursdays we take you to “the well” - your source for inspiration and how-to’s.

Just the other day I met a woman on the bus who shared some valuable advice with me. As we rode through the foggy city, Pearl told me of her triumphs in life and then offered some valuable words I would like to share with you.

“Don’t forget about relationships,” she said. “We spend so much time focused on our career and trying to make as much money as we can, but what about other people? People are what matter. Take the time to cultivate relationships with others. This is what will bring you joy, now and when you are much older.”

This may seem like simple advice, but it really struck me. To love is just as important as to be successful, and why isn’t love viewed as success?

If anyone has any thoughts or words of wisdom of their own to share, please let us know.
