Your calling is the combination of all your gifts: interests, skills, knowledge, personality
characteristics, and values. You live these gifts in all your life, not just one job.

PASSION Don’t wait for change to happen. Make it happen.

Sacrifice can lead to great success. Know yourself. Think outside the box.
Pay attention to your day dreams. Find your “Flow”. Follow your curiosity. Be patient.
