FAVOURITE QUOTE:
“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.” – Pelé
GREATEST LESSON(S) IN BUSINESS:
In life there are ups and downs for everyone. It’s important not to get too excited and comfortable when you’re at the highs and that you know it’s not the end when you’re at a low point. In order to be successful you have to be able to handle both with awareness and not let it throw you off your path.
