Wisdom Wednesday Quote: “How high you fly is derived from how big you think.”

____Robin Sharma

We had our Chief HR Officer, Leena Nair, speak to us yesterday. What a phenomenal woman and leader she is. Below is 3 pieces of advice that she shared with us which I would like to share with you:

1. Dream big. It doesn’t matter where you come from, just dream big then work towards achieving it.

2. Stay curious. The world is changing at an amazing pace and if you are not open to learning regardless of your age, you will get left behind. Call me crazy but I see learning as fun. Each time you learn something new, it changes your perception of the world and expands your horizons so get learning.

3. Stay humble. This goes hand in hand with staying curious. You have to be able to acknowledge that you don’t know everything to open yourself up to learning.

And at every step of the way, don’t forget to “help someone cross” as Tyler Perry says.

I got to put this saying into practice recently. It’s the small things that build faith and this series of everyday events have gone a long way to build mine up. You can read more about it in my latest blog post here

Quote of the day: Wednesday

“Just focus on the one or two really really important things, and everything else, just surrender to it. Just take it as it comes. Just accept it. Be glad with it. Be happy that you’re in this world.”
