The Significant Others

Most human failures are catalysed by the failings of the significant others. If you observe that someone is drifting away from the ideal, then it is time to intensify your compassion rather than resort to criticism. People struggling need friendship, not alienation; they need engagement, not isolation.

Strength and Potential

When you make the most of your strengths, there are no limits to what you can do and how you can lead.

Vision & Decision-Making

Vision simplifies decision-making. Anything that moves you closer to your vision gets a green light; everything else should be approached with caution.
