No one makes it to the "top" by themselves. Each step you take is guided by at least one person's blood, sweat and tears. Appreciate those who stand behind you as you rise. They are the only ones who will catch you if you fall. The ladder of success is steadiest when someone's there to support it. Carlos Wallace
About This Quote

There's one common misconception that people often make; they believe that if they worked hard enough and long enough, they would eventually "make it to the top" and achieve their dreams. The truth is: each step you take is guided by at least one other person's blood, sweat and tears. But thanks to those people who have come before you, you have a chance at making it to the top. No matter how long it takes or how much effort you put into your career, there will always be someone there who has made it to the top before you. This ladder of success is steadiest when someone's there to support it, and those people are those you've worked with already.
