CURRENT MISSION

"It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize the other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is." Hermann Hesse

ABOUT ME

I am determined about what I want and how I can achieve my goals. I am always trying to help others wherever I can, I am trustworthy, hard-working, enthusiastic, a rational and logical thinker, positively thinking and minded, a problem-solver, have always new ideas that I want to share... and want to realize when I think that it is possible, I am visionary, I tend to talk a lot and fast... also, you might have trouble because I am sometimes overwhelming withoug noticing. I can't really recognize somebody else's feelings, so I might be stepping on sb's feet unintentionally even though I don't want to hurt him/her.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize the other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is." Hermann Hesse

"Life has become faster than who we are. We communicate more but say less." Marc Forster

"Find our own personal truth: There are two kinds of lies we are living: those we tell others and those that we tell ourselves. All of us have only one life to live - we should think long and hard about what to focus on. If you make the effort to think about this you will be headed in the right direction." Marc Forster

"There is but one correlation with success, and that is attitude." Jeff Smith

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, gift, or skill. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes." Charles Swindoll

"To be trusted is a greater complement than to be loved." George MacDonald.

“To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others.” Anthony Robbins
