Lean On Me

OR: Don’t Let Pride Stand In the Way

old black-and-white family photo.

Especially in North America, we hear a lot about how we are supposed to be independent and not need anyone else.

This turns out not to be the case.

We need other people.  Other people need us.  Even as a solopreneur, we are dependent on others – our clients, our family, supportive friends, even the anonymous people who make available to us services like the Internet.

This video says it perfectly:

Think about who you depend on – and thank them.  Think about who depends on you – and encourage them.

With many thanks to my own supportive family and friends, especially:  Joan M, Kathryn T, Dan L, and Marsha T.
