Your Potential Is Unlimited
By Peggie Bednar
President of Myrtle Beach, SC, Branch 695 and Retired Postmaster of Rock Hill
We have the remarkable potential to achieve much of which we believe ourselves capable. When confronted with challenges, let us stand tall and remain resolute and deeply committed to our objectives.
Encountering dishonesty can be disheartening, particularly from those with whom we long have collaborated. For example, when a leader neglects to inform you of a new process and you invest considerable time working with the outdated method, trust is undeniably lost.
When a leader conveys half-truths to misdirect without offering explanations, trust diminishes. Moreover, when a leader reaps personal gains that are not rightfully theirs, trust erodes further.
As we pursue growth, let us recognize that surpassing a mentor may present challenges, yet it also opens doors to exciting new opportunities. The principles of learning and teaching form the cornerstone of our organization.
Supervisors who are genuinely engaged are more likely to share their valuable insights and experiences with members. Sharing knowledge cultivates leadership; withholding knowledge can hinder the spirit of collaboration.
Participating in conventions, meetings and training sessions and pursuing fellowships will significantly enhance your growth as a NAPS member. Participation also may position you for a leadership role in our organization.
Do not let a leader lacking integrity discourage you. Instead, build your confidence by passionately believing that truth will prevail and those who act unethically will face the consequences of their actions.
Your NAPS family is steadfastly here for you. All that is needed is for you to take the first step: Get involved!
