“Oh fuck.”

Is what I thought about two years ago when in a moment I actually realised that money doesn’t lead to happiness.

All the time in business I hear people saying “I’m a big picture person,” or “I’m a detail person.”

When I was interviewing Professor Fiona Wood, Australian of the Year, pioneer of spray on skin, I was struck by her statement that “We must keep some of the best of us for those who mean the most to us.”

“Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.”

Excellence is a choice, a way of being.
