“I learned to always take on things I’d never done before. Growth and comfort do not coexist.”

This quote has been a favorite of mine for many years. As I’m someone who can be timid and shy at times, this quote has helped me recognize that sometimes being afraid of something is a good thing and can lead to the best opportunities. I also did my MBA internship last summer at IBM, and really look up to Ginni Rometty.
