One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Raising a son. Very hard, extremely rewarding.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a person with big ego, I tend to think I got lots to share. Many people buy it... Can talk knowledgeably about business from personal failures and successes. For hours.

The 3 great non-fiction books I've read:
1. Stephen Covey - The 7 Hhabits of Highly Effective People.
2. Brian Tracy - Psychology of Achievement.
3. Robert Kiyosaki - Cashflow Quadrant.
2018 update: there's many more good ones. Read 27 in 2017, most decent, some incredible.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My deep personality. Some people say I'm an interesting person. I tend to agree - I never get tired of myself or get bored with myself ;)
