Three Types of People

Bellevue suburb to buzzing Seattle, Jesse Tam touches on those who make an impact on our career and lives. There are people in our lives that we never forget. The days of youth when we remember our childhood school mates to working colleagues creating challenges and motivating our spirit.  Do you recall your favorite teacher who helped guided your path or shared an interest in your talent?

There are individuals who create obstacles and challenges. Take the challenges or risks and  find a way to move ahead regardless of what comes forth. Then there are people in our lives who pretend to be your friends, but otherwise and those who... Never forget...      http://jessetam.com/

Regardless of the path traveled this quote is something to think about.

                  1. Who helped you in your difficult times.

              2. Who left you in your difficult times.

      3. Who put you in difficult times.
