Fred and Linda Harteis, owners of Harteis International, thank you for choosing growth. Growth is a choice, and through your example you have shown many the importance of personal growth. D. Nyad has said, "I am willing to put myself through anything; temporary pain or discomfort means nothing to me as long as I can see that the experience will take me to a new level. I am interested in the unknown, and the only path to the unknown is through breaking barriers, an often painful process." Thank you for breaking through that barrier and leading others by your example.
