When I was younger, I thought my task was to forge ahead and succeed as an individual. But growing older has helped me realize that our success lies in our relationships– with the family we are born into, the friends we make, the people we fall in love with, and the children we have. Sometimes we struggle, sometimes we adapt, and at other times we set a course for others to follow. We are all leaders and followers in our lives. We are constantly learning from and teaching one another. We learn, too, that the most important work is not done by those who seem the most important, but by those who care the most. Caroline Kennedy
About This Quote

The quote above is not saying that the most important things in life are to be found in family, friends, and relationships. But rather, it is saying that the most important things in life are the relationships we make with the people around us. This means that you can’t necessarily succeed by yourself. The only way to be successful is to learn how to work with others. When you do this, you become an expert at working with people.
