Resilience is key in the insurance business. Like palm trees and cactuses, agents must be adaptable and able to thrive in different environments.
Finding the right mentor or support system is crucial for success. It's important to connect with someone who challenges and educates you, rather than just making you feel good.

Individual growth patterns vary, and it's important to recognize and embrace your own unique journey.
Engage with the content and share it with others to help it grow and reach more people.
