Itโ€™s okay not to know. Life is about learning and growing. If someone asks a question, letโ€™s support them and offer kindness, not disrespect.

The next time someone asks a question and you donโ€™t know, be proud to say, โ€œI donโ€™t know, but I would love to learnโ€ or โ€œI donโ€™t know, but I will find out.โ€

So who wants a verified 'Microsoft' and 'Microsoft MVP' label on their profile and all the posts?

I just finished setting up @bluesky.ms as a labelling service.

Go subscribe to the label to start seeing labels on verified MVPs and Microsofties.
