About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be Myself (:

ABOUT ME

Happily Married. I love meeting new people, talking about business and practicing Falun Dafa.

I enjoy learning about the history of marketing, advertising, and PR (propaganda). I also like devising teaching methods that work.

I am addicted to oolong tea. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Always look within.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Renaissance music (not all) e.g. Philippe De Monte, The Glitch Mob, Some types of Chinese instrumental music, orchestral music, film music.

Books:
Zhuan Falun, Just Listen, Winning with Accountability, Death by Meeting, What Got You Here Won't Get You There, Stop Presenting!: Start Succeeding, and a couple of more (usually business or business novels/fables - but business is not all I think about)

Movies:
Oh I just love all the blockbuster crap that comes from Hollywood. I'm a movie freak. I'm also a big Joseph Campbell and Chris Vogler fan so I always watch movies from at least two perspectives. I also like movies which make you think, or which surprise me. I liked Inception and similar movies, although I don't like when some people try to make their movies "smart".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've visited about 30 countries in my life, of which Saudi Arabia was pretty amazing. I also enjoyed swimming in some caves in Cuba. Well that's just some of the things that come to mind.

My toys were once sold in Harrods, I remember being really proud and happy at that time. I had a company (now sold) with a friend, that produced high quality wooden toys(www.gepetto.pl).

Teach, Learn, Share

Marketing with stories.

I can give you some input on your current advertising or I can really give you a push in the direction you should be going.

I can teach you some Chinese Qigong and make you a great cup of Taiwanese oolong tea. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I know marketing might sound boring, but if you hate it, then I could probably help. :)

English/Polish lessons ;)

Building a website.
