A Message from the President


"I Thought This Summer Would Be Easier"

I don’t know about you…but I thought this summer would be easier. Work would get a little more relaxed and the stress of deadlines a bit more manageable. As I was sitting in the office feeling the pressure, I ran across a message on the internet from Kara Lawson, head coach of Duke University’s women’s basketball team. Here is what she said:


“We all wait in life for things to get easier. ... It will never get easier. What happens is you handle hard better. That's what happens. Most people think that it's going to get easier. Life is going to get easier. Basketball is going to get easier. School is going to get easier. It never gets easier. What happens is you become someone who handles hard stuff better. ... And if you think life when you leave college is going to all of a sudden get easier because you graduated and you got a Duke degree, it's not going to get easier. It's going to get harder. So, make yourself a person that handles hard well.”


She is so right. I think I just got a kick in the pants! So, if you will excuse me…I need to get back to work.

Check out the MSE Detroit calendar and join us for the August 16th networking event.
