Chapter 10
“The
struggle of life is one of our greatest blessings. It makes us patient,
sensitive, and Godlike. It teaches us that although the world is a whole of
suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it. -Helen Keller
The
struggles
Would
you believe me if I told you that I’ve faced bullying more than once in my
life? The first time was in second grade when a fellow student, for reasons
I’ll never understand, tried to throw me off the balcony. It was a terrifying
experience, but my mother didn’t hesitate; she immediately transferred me to a
different school. I was so grateful for her quick decision, knowing she
potentially saved me from becoming another tragic statistic. My mom wasn’t one
to play around with when it came to protecting me, and I applaud her.
Years
later, I encountered another bully while working as a receptionist. A girl in the office seemed to enjoy embarrassing me in front of others. However, that situation didn’t last long
because I didn’t let it define me. I moved ahead in my career, while she
probably remained stuck in the same place. The point is I inherited my
mother’s generous heart, and I strive to live by her example. But I’ve noticed
that people often mistake my kindness for weakness. They don’t realize that
kindness is a strength I carry with me in all my interactions.

Amazing story. You have been through so much. The next many chapters have yet to be written. May they be filled with joy and happiness.
Experiencing bully in the workplace should not be as common as it. Having the strength to get up and move past these experiences as you build your career is important. Don’t lose the lessons of the past. Let them make you a great leader.
