Mottos/ philosophy:
- It’s what you do when you don't have to do it, that
will determine what you will be when you can no longer help it. It's
not doing what you like to do, but liking what you have to do that makes
the world of difference. And good things come to those who wait, but
here's a rule that slicker; "it's what you do while you wait that
gets you there much quicker."
