Find your voice & help Others find theirs. Creativity is thinking new things. Innovation is doing new things. Finding your voice is about doing the things we love to do or standing up for what you believe in. Taking charge of how you are perceived in the world. Owning your truth.

 

Saol is cosúil le cupán tae, Tá sé ar fad i conas a dhéannann tú é. Life is like a cup of tea. It’s all in how you make it. Shape circumstances don’t let them shape YOU. In other words take responsibility for the things you do and how you feel about the world you live in. Knowing you’re responsible means you and only you can make the changes necessary to have the life you want.

Take advantage of the Opportunity in the lifetime of the Opportunity. – Eric Thomas. Buail an t-iarann fad as ta se te. Strike while the iron is hot. Looking back with regrets and I should haves its not good for your heart. Recognising an opportunity is all about knowing what you want.

This above all: to thine own self be true,
& it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
William Shakespeare: Hamlet Act 1, scene 3,
