“I’m not a non-profit person. I think of myself as an entrepreneur who wants to work on global education.”

When creating a business, does renting an office space now mean that you’re producing goods, training staff and generating revenues?

Make sure you make it a story you’re proud to have others tell.

My journey began with a single pencil. While traveling through India in 2006

I understood that I might fail, but I wouldn’t let it happen because I changed my compass along the way.

Big Dreams start with small unreasonable acts

For any movement to gain momentum, it must start with a small action.

Never take no from somebody who cannot say yes.

Speak the language of the person you want to become.

True self-discovery begins where your comfort zone ends.

In those moments when priorities clash always stay guided by your values, not your perceived necessities.

We fear leaving those familiar surroundings, which is natural, but through exploration of the unfamiliar we stop focusing on the labels that define WHAT we are and discover WHO we are.

Make your life a story worth telling. You only get one shot at this existence, and one day when you’re gone the most important thing you’ll leave behind is the legacy of the life you lived.

As our values are the core to who we are as human beings, they are also the easiest way to identify and connect with others in meaningful ways.

Creating something new is easy, creating something that lasts is the challenge.
