On my recent trip to #China, I learned something fascinating about the country’s history. The Great Wall was built to keep out invaders like the Mongols and Manchurians. But later, these very groups expanded China’s territory far beyond the original borders set by the Wall. This made me think about how building walls, whether real or metaphorical, can limit us.
Building walls can keep us from growing and reaching our full potential. We do better when we open up and work together. Countries, for example, need immigrants to help their economies grow. Similarly, we as individuals grow when we meet new people, build partnerships, and explore new places.
In today’s connected world, being open and willing to collaborate is crucial. Instead of isolating ourselves, opening our doors can lead to new opportunities and help us achieve more than we could alone.
