Well said, Carson. This rings true regardless of where one may be on the hierarchy of life whether in business, in politics or in one’s daily life. A person is not just judged/valued by who they are but how they make others feel or their positive influence who those others are.
Your title will change and skills will evolve. But the way you make people feel will define your career forever. Your real value is in your impact. Early in my career, I thought success meant climbing — bigger titles, bigger stages, bigger awards. And I got a lot of them. But

I learned what those “lines” were for in Grade 9 typing. Possibly you never took typing as a course?

Perhaps rather than a salary cap in the MLB, there should be a restructuring of TV revenues. It is my understanding the Dodgers current get some $300M annually from TV revenues whereas other teams do not get near that much.

First of all, although long known by many as being a communist country, it is not. https://t.co/SAhGw6T8iF And if you choose to call it a “communist dictatorship” then currently the US could be called a “fascist dictatorship” based on the events of the past year.

Labeling China as "communist", despite it embracing market reforms and private enterprise, fuels Western misconceptions, writes Ottón Solís.
Mark Carney is selling out Canadian values to a communist dictatorship. This is dangerous, ineffective, and immoral.

And of the Dodgers’ $429M, I understand that $300M of that is paid by their earnings from annual TV revenues. If the Dodgers were to lose that TV revenue, then what would happen?
This is why #MLB needs both a salary floor and a salary cap. The industry payroll differential is so exaggerated that half the teams literally have no-chance at a World Championship.

“The Suicide Pact: What Happens the Moment We (the US) Touch Greenland” - Brent Molnar A VERY interesting read that SHOULD make more people in the US think about what their President is thinking of doing. https://t.co/95Kl7MZ4lI

I was actually on LinkedIn before I was on Twitter or Facebook. We will have to connect on LinkedIn but I would also invite you to BlueSky where certainly my feed there is not as toxic, as it is here. (Note I’ve quoted your post to restrict responses from only you)
@MarkC_289 @AdmiredLeaders @X My feed is toxic now and includes people I never followed. @x is clearly not concerned about losing people. Many never left. They just stopped coming. Please connect with me on LinkedIn if you spend time there Mark.

Longwoods Road (former Hwy2) is snow-covered with bare and track-bare spots, but I am sure there are other spots where drifts may be across the highway. Visibility will be hampered mostly by blowing snow. Be safe out there!🙏 #ONStorm 2/2

~30 km SW of London ON, I would guess we currently have 7 to 10cm (3-4 inches) of snow but as you can see by the pic, the winds have left some spots bare. Our rural laneway is mostly bare to the highway, but there is also a 3 ft (90cm+) drift closer to our garage. #onstorm 1/2

Some would say the US is ruled by a fascist dictatorship detaining , physically attacking and killing its own citizens. So, Canada’s choice appears to be between a country ruled by a communist dictatorship or a country ruled by a fascist dictatorship.🤔🤷♂️
@strauss_matt Maybe we should wait and see?

If Russia or China went in, all of NATO, including the US should respond. If the US “goes in” that would be in breach of the NATO agreement regarding attacking/invading a NATO ally. The rest of the remaining NATO allies would have to respond together, effectively ending NATO.
@Breaking911 That's BS. If Russia or China goes in, this would be breaching our NATO agreements and NATO would be at war with Russia Or China.

And here I thought Johnathan Ross to be a PERFECT a$$hole! Guess I was maybe wrong?
BREAKING: It turns out that the internal bleeding that Jonathan Ross had after killing Renee Good was just hemorrhoids. For those who are buying into the propaganda being pushed by the Trump DOJ, Trump DHS, Trump ICE, and apparently Trump controlled CBS, remember that Donald

Ah, but the ICE agent almost lost his phone when reaching for his gun, so he suffered bruising (considered internal bleeding) to one knuckle when it was caught between the cellular and the front hood of Good’s vehicle as he caught it before it fell to the pavement.🤷♂️

We are all part of “the Americas” but we do not say “Canada of America” or “Mexico of America”, etc., etc., etc. I think they should just be called “United States”. 🤷♂️ 2/2

Since “someone” started re-naming things, I have referred to our neighbour to the immediate south of Canada is simply the “United States”. The Americas are made up of Canada, the United States, Mexico and the rest of the countries in Central & South America. 1/2
I live in Canada. Canada is part of North America. North America is not America. Canada is not America. Not once in my life have I said I live in America.

One of the responses to this post indicates Jon Stewart is not funny. In this segment even the audience laughter is subdued, as the reality is that Trump & his acolytes view what is being done by this administration are good things. THEY ARE NOT GOOD THINGS & they are not funny!
