Never lose your student mindset
If I had the opportunity to start over, as in from primary, through secondary and then on to university, I’d be a much better student. I wouldn’t waste time complaining about things I can’t control – like teachers’ personalities, and homework and I’d focus more on learning and being more curious about subjects, even those…

Ready to Scale? The One Question Every Business Owner and Executive Leader Needs to Ask First
I left the Edge Leadership session feeling grateful. So much wisdom was shared. Diverse perspectives. Hard-won insights.

Few have a concrete strategy for saving and reducing debt and almost no strategy regarding investing. While many of us would like to change the RESULTS in our lives,…
Clarity BEFORE Execution. Structure BEFORE Speed
