Fellow humans,
In my eyes, 2011 has been the year of the Sponge. A year of a learning. A year of thinking, talking & debating.
According to the Chinese, 2012 is the year of the Dragon. To me, the dragon represents a concentrated ball of enormous energy and activity. This year ladies and gentlemen, is the year of action. It’s about taking the steps you’ve been thinking about for so long. It’s about making an impact on life. Changing the game for the better. It is about materializing your values and beliefs into the real world, not just your head. Lets do it. And lets do it together.
