Today; as I enter the final year of my 20’s I look back at the last decade of my life, and I realise what a journey it has been. I look back and see a brace faced young 19 year old, who dreamt of going abroad, studying at a world class university, and becoming a “big” man.
I don’t know about being a “barra admi” though, but this journey has been one hell of a ride. 10 years that changed me, shaped the way I see life, and truly taught me some lessons.
Today I reflect, and realise, whether I wanted to or not, consciously or subconsciously; the lessons the last decade has taught me will forever stay with me; and I’d like to share them with you today.
1. There is literally no substitute to hard work, you must always strive to do your best in every moment.
2. Only you, you can make your dreams come true.
3. Be kind, be foolish.
4. Gratitude has the power to move mountains
