"...In which class are you? Are you easing the load
     Of overtaxed lifters, who toil down the road?

Or are you a leaner, who lets others share
     Your portion of labor, and worry and care?"

This week, I’m reading a poem, 1:39 ?rgn=div1;view=fulltext">The Two Kinds of People by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, published in 1896.

Reflection questions:

• Is there a new fund development professional in your network that you can reach out to in order to encourage?

• Or, do you feel like you are drowning a bit and need a lift from a colleague who is a bit wiser in the field?  Can you take a moment now and reach out by text or email?
