?? Proud to spotlight Anthony Day from First Southern Bank, whose journey in commercial lending exemplifies the power of taking bold career steps. Our favorite takeaway from this inspiring piece? Anthony's perspective on fear of failure: "It's far more fulfilling to look back on your experiences and acknowledge that you tried, even if the outcome wasn't what you hoped than to regret not taking the chance at all." ?? Kudos to Joe Szynkowski for capturing this story! Member FDIC, Equal Housing Lender #FinancialServices #CareerGrowth #CommunityBanking #Leadership
