Hi,

IWW Newsletter - Issue 140 - June 2024

Greetings and a warm welcome to everyone who subscribed to IWW Newsletter.

Thank you for subscribing to our newsletter.

1. Words of Success

a) "Somewhere inside, we hear a voice. It leads us in the direction of the person we wish to become. But it is up to us whether or not to follow."

~Pat Tillman

b) "You are the only custodian of your own integrity, and the assumptions made by those that misunderstand who you are and what you stand for reveal a great deal about them and absolutely nothing about you."

~Maria Popova, The Marginalian, https://www.themarginalian.org/

2. Editor's Note

Hope all of you are doing well. As informed in my last newsletter I couldn't send the additional newsletter last month. Then I was thinking I will be able to include it at least this month, but unfortunately not even this month. I don't know when I will be able to do it. Please` bear with me.
