It’s in your best interest to make those around you successful. Building yourself up at the expense of others only works for the short term.

Imagine you're on a boat sailing through the vast ocean of life. The winds of opportunity are blowing, and you're navigating through the waves, trying to reach your destination. But here's the catch: you're not alone on this journey. There are others sailing alongside you, each with their own vessel, dreams, and aspirations.

Now, you could approach this voyage with a mindset focused solely on your own boat, your own progress, and your own success. You could hoist your sails higher, catch every gust of wind, and leave the other boats trailing behind in your wake. But what happens when you reach your destination and look around? You're standing alone on the shore, with no one to share in your triumph.

The truth is, true success isn't measured by how far ahead you can pull yourself, but by how many hands you've reached out to pull up alongside you. It's about recognizing that the journey is sweeter when shared, that the victories are richer when celebrated together. When you invest in the success of those around you, you're not just building bridges, you're creating a network of support that will carry you through life's storms.

Think of it like a communal garden. You could tend only to your own plot, watering your plants and ensuring they thrive while neglecting the soil next door. But eventually, your garden will become isolated and stagnant. However, if you share your resources, exchange seeds, and help your neighbors cultivate their patches, you'll find that your garden flourishes abundantly, bursting with a variety of fruits and flowers that enrich the entire community.

So, as you sail through the waters of life, remember this: true success isn't a solo journey; it's a collaborative effort. Lift others up, cheer them on, and watch as the tide lifts all boats. Because in the end, the measure of your success isn't just how high you've climbed, but how many hands you've held along the way.

Now, take a moment to reflect: In what ways can you support and uplift those around you on their journey to success?
