MEMORABLE MOMENTS

“If you keep taking one step in front of another, it's like driving in the fog. Eventually you'll get there. You can't see very far ahead of you, but as long as you keep moving forward slowly, you're heading in the right direction. You will get there or somewhere close to there.”

“Oftentimes there are more routes to a potential destination than you might imagine.”

“Short term thinking is good when it's good. But it's not good all the time. Because when it's compounded, it means that you're never setting a proactive agenda. All you're doing is reacting to external stimuli.”

“As long as you have the ambition, as long as you understand what the destination is, you just have to have one crucial thing, which is the next step.”

“Confidence, to me, is about having an internal locus of control, rather than relying on other people to dictate your worth…And I believe in the power of a low bar. That gives us confidence.”
