About Me

Most overnight successes take a decade. pushing through the dip and becoming the best in the world at what you do is in fact the key to success. But (and it's a big but), if you're required to become someone you're not, or required to mutate your brand into one that's ultimately a failure in order to do so, you're way better off quitting instead.The alternative is to be the trusted advisor, the person who gave up one dream to realize a bigger one, and to build a brand and a lifestyle with long-term leverage.................................................... ..........+-*^mathematics is the language of nature#+%-
