"Sometimes the bravest thing to do is to step back from your productivity and value yourself. I didn’t realize it at the time. At that time, I thought it was being selfish. At that time, I thought I was not being a good leader. After that, then I realized that it was the hardest thing to do for me, and I think you would empathize because it’s easy to build your identity on how much you contribute and what you do for other people and the underlying question is what am I if I am not doing all these things. That is sometimes the scariest question for any of us." - Karen Tay
