“I HAVE THREE RULES I LIVE BY. IF YOUR PREFERRED PLACE AT THE TABLE TO LEAD OR INFLUENCE DECISIONS/POLICY IS UNAVAILABLE, CREATE YOUR OWN TABLE AND BLOOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED. MAKE TIME TO REFLECT ON WHERE YOU ARE COMING FROM AND APPLAUD YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS THUS FAR. FAILURES ARE ONLY LEARNINGS AND STEPPING STONES TO GREATNESS.” – DORCAS DUBE-LONDT
