Over the next few days, many will share their 2024 highlights. If survival was your biggest accomplishment, that’s OK. So was mine.

As Coach John Wooden said, ‘Success is peace of mind.’ Do your best with what your intelligence, abilities, strengths, and resources allow. We’re all born with different capacities—run your own race.

Happy New Year, 2025! Or, perhaps, just another great new day to seize. Every sunrise brings another shot at doing better, at fighting for what matters, and moving forward.

One step. One breath. One day. Let’s make it count!
