Quotes
[edit]- "Fear is a thief, it robs you from realizing your potential, it robs you from experiencing optimal happiness, it creates doubt which then results in you giving up on your dreams and potential, but it can be tackled and one can overcome it"
- “But fear kept me away from my dreams, this is why I slaved away first as a reception for thirteen years and then as a personal assistant for ten years. But during my time as a full time employee I started to operate a catering company on a part time basis."
- “My mother worked as a domestic worker and my father was a fisherman and he made shoes in his spare time. They are my inspiration and till this day at the age of 82 my father still makes belts and repairs shoes."
