Taking time to look back and honor sacrifices of those who lived with the purpose of bettering our lives today is essential. It provides the extra push to be excellent as a Black man because you know the price paid to have the opportunity. Black History Month is a fresh reminder to be thankful for the unique history that I’m connected to. It’s an opportunity to take time to study the mindsets and patterns of the strong Black innovators and leaders who built the foundation I stand on. My grandfather, Dwight, is a hero for me. He left his hometown to start a family and worked early mornings and late nights so my generation could be in great position. He’s a Black man of faith that instilled hard work, faith, and consistency in our DNA. His excellence is what I refer to as a benchmark for greatness.
