What would your autobiography be called? “NOT WHAT IS, BUT WHAT CAN BE” 2. YOU’RE A NEW ADDITION TO THE CRAYON BOX, WHAT COLOUR WOULD YOU BE AND WHY?

I refuse to believe that I must suit any one mold or ‘colour’ but instead relish the thought of transforming into what I need to be for the challenge at hand maintaining and revering only the fundamentals. 3. If you were 80 years old, what advice would you give your children? Focus and improve your strengths, utilize the abilities of others in doing the rest. You do not have to be or know everything; you just need to participate in building and strengthening a likeminded community of complimentary experts… in other words be a part of a winning team.
