People always talk about getting a better job, starting a company or making a dream come true, but when you ask them what they've done about it, they have no answer and get really mad at me. Well, how the heck is it going to happen? One of my mottos is, "walk your talk, lead by example; do, don't speak." There's also something to be said for positive thought, being clear about one's goals and attracting the right things in one's life. (That said, unfortunately it doesn't always work that well in Greece, though I do believe I've gotten much further than the majority by doing exactly what I say above). That’s so true.
