Who are YOU?
Although I am not what I do, most people
know me for what I do and not for who I am.
In my professional life, I am a strategist. As a
strategist, I envision the end result my clients
or I want to achieve and then I visualise many
different possible ways to reach that outcome
and proceed to gather the resources and put
the pieces together. Sometimes I work as a
Marketing Strategist; other times as a Brand
or Public Image Strategist. A very important
and fulfilling part of my job is to help authors,
consultants and coaches to launch their
careers in a big way. In my personal life I am
an ultra-curious person who always wants to
learn new things; try new things (sometimes
a new musical instrument, other times it’s a
slight-of-hand magic move) and spend time
cultivating my passions: writing, music, beach
walks and animals (I am a proud dad of three
cats and one dog! And I volunteer my time
and my home as a foster/shelter home for
abandoned cats waiting for adoption).
What is the biggest mistake you
have ever made in business
and what you did you learn
from it?
I have made many “big” mistakes and I know
for sure I will make more, but probably the
biggest one so far has been to believe that
what got me here, would take me anywhere
I want. I learned the hard way that success
is not a finish line and that one or two big
accomplishments won’t guarantee any
other triumph. We must work
as hard for the first big
achievement
as
for any other, and
nothing should be
taken for granted.
