With only a few days left in 2012, I thought it would be a good idea to review what made the year memorable before starting a new one!
One of my favorite quotes/lines comes from my favorite movie, “The Wizard of Oz” in which the Wizard says to Tin Man:
A heart is not measured by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.
This is a powerful reminder for all of us!
With this is mind, I need to say thank you to each one of you who has liked what I said enough to share it, those who have attended workshops and Career Navigator, and finally, my friends and family who have supported me in many ways!
