Reflecting on one of my favorite nights of the year, hosting my 17th annual Christmas 🎄 party for friends. Always such a blessing to share food, laughs, tears, and conversation ... sharing our lessons for the current year & our hopes/prayers for the year ahead.✨
Tonight, a dear friend shared a concept with us that really struck a chord with me:
♥️Experience
♥️Exposure
♥️Expertise
These are her words when I asked her to expound:
"Using those 3 things cohesively as you continue to live and experience life. Be it in work, love, disappointment , etc.... if you've EXPERIENCED it, you know how to navigate it somehow or way. If you've been EXPOSED, you're learning how to grow by challenging yourself to solve problems... resilience... expand your perspective. EXPERTISE develops as your competency in all the above gives you that confidence of knowing what you do and don't, will and won't , etc..."
This was such a blessing to me, as it resonates both personally and professionally. Just wanted to share.♥️🤍
