Resources “No matter what accomplishments you achieve, somebody helps you.“
These are the words of Althea Gibson (1927-2003) -- who has often been referred to as the Jackie Robinson of tennis, and who was a pioneer in both amateur tennis and professional golf.
I agree with Althea, nothing I have achieved was done on my own. It was accomplished with the help of others.
