How you should dress depends on where you are going. By this, I mean that each given point in time requires a different phrase or message. I love quotes and also metaphors. They usually have a motivating, mobilizing effect, not to mention also a retaining effect.
Lastly, when you aren’t working, what do you do to relax? I’m always active. I love my work and have always enjoyed it. But I also know how to enjoy my leisure time. Enjoying time with my children and my family is what I enjoy the most. Travelling, organizing fishing trips, trips involving snow and a game of tennis from time to time are my ways of grounding.
