Counting down to the end of January. It’s been an awesome one month ride!! Fresh start , getting it right, character development , identifying talents and learning skills.

I will work smart too, meaning: I will put my mind to it; I will make sure my presentation is appealing. I will pay attention to details, no room for 'cut and join' or shabbiness. A man of excellence stands out and will always keep ahead of peers. Hard work is the first step for smart work because hard work gives the experience which enables us to think smartly on the easiest way to solve the problem.

There’s a price to pay for success. I have my goals 'penned' down but what must I do to achieve them, what are those things I did in the past that didn't work for me? What are those that worked??
