People emphasize that you should be independent but I go by “interdependent. To me, independent means isolation and not achieving as much as we possibly can. While, interdependent means coexisting, making life more enjoyable, relying on each other, and achieving much more with more resources.” Terry Kebbel, Blinded Veteran, Mentor, Trainer, coach, Advocate
