"The purpose of dreams is inspiration. Dreams will only be dreams until they are turned into reality by hard work and accountability for our results. This semester I literally witnessed my dreams turn into reality. Winning the Vector All- American scholarship was cool, but it is only a stepping-stone to greater success. Now I know I have the discipline to achieve my dreams. That is what being All-American is about."

"When I first entered my Vector office, I was shy. Today, I am a Vector All- American. Once transforming from my home office to the Tampa Bay Powerhouse, I felt such confidence in my ability to achieve great things. I saw the conviction that my PSM gave in my PC and inspired me to achieve top 10 All-American - a first for the Powerhouse. My managers have constantly encouraged my growth not only in Vector but personally. With this experience and the skills I've developed, my opportunities are endless. I will forever be grateful for my managers and lifelong friends through Vector."
