Invaluable lessons! Stay the course


Don't bring your problems home nor come back crying! Face up the world, fight your battle - do not give up easily, make it tough.

Cut your positions when you are in the money, don't be arrogant! If you are loosing, cut your losses and come back
another day.

Go long on integrity, character, values and reputation - be prepared to walk away and cut losses when these are compromised by someome. 

Life is a sport - play win, loose sportingly! 

We can be the best for a period of time only; pass the baton happily. 

Never underestimate anyone nor make assumptions or judgements. Every gem has its worth and needs to be mined, sorted and polished which needs time and persistence.

No one can steal character, integrity, intelligence, hardwork and passion; retaining it will help you to come back.

Don't try to herd cats and never abandon a dog!

Your courage, persistence, attitude and resilience is in your mind.

Be useful, relevant, humble, caring, kind, and happy.

Good laugh and a jolly mood reboots the mind! 

Life is about work, fun, play, travel and festivities. 

Our assumptions must not become our blind spots.

Don't believe the guy who says perceptions are reality; perceptions can be manipulated but cannot change reality.

Change your mentors and ideals with time, life experiences and life journey.

Every institution is vulnerable, no matter how great. No matter how much you've achieved, no matter how far you've gone, no matter how much power you've garnered, you are vulnerable to decline. There is no law of nature that the most powerful will inevitably remain at the top. Anyone can fall and most eventually do."   -Jim Collins, How the mighty fall (2009
