Achievement level unlocked

I was promoted to the President of our company. We currently have 76 employees and 3 locations. I’ve been in the same line of work for 26 years (14 yrs at current company) . I have no college degree. Theoretically I don’t deserve this, I started from the very bottom of this industry and 26 years and 3 companies later here I am.

I never felt smart enough, educated enough, good enough, to have this happen. I’ve lived my adult life with a constant hunger for knowledge and leadership and a desire to impact those around me.

For me, I am undeserving and I truly believe if you knew me, it’s by the grace of God that he’s allowed me this responsibility and stewardship of what ultimately belongs to him. I don’t say that casually or lightly, this isn’t one of those award shows where everyone thanks God.

I post this publicly for two reasons

Nothing in my life or background by “normal” corporate standards say I should be here.
Wherever we are, at the bottom, middle or top in our careers, we can make a difference. We can bless others, help others, support others and lead others right where we are.

This is for my guys out there who need to hear the impossible is possible.
