Where Do We Begin?
Why:
It doesn't matter what you
do, it matters why you do
it.
What:
the results of those actions.
Simon Sinek, “Start with Why”
“To be nobody but yourself in
a world that’s doing its best to
make you somebody else, is
to fight the hardest battle you
are ever going to fight.”
–Courtenay Hameister, writer, filmmaker and
host of Live Wire Radio
10
Be true to yourself
My ‘Why?’
To pursue infinity.
To keep learning,
growing and
challenging myself.
11
How?’
ASPIRE Assert yourself.
And persist.
REACH OUT Create a support network
RISE ABOVE Know your priorities, and live by
them
“Our career paths
are largely
incidental”
- Simon Sinek, “Start with Why”
What?

“Opportunities are
out there.
The ceiling is
where you put it.”
-Meg Whitman, CEO HP, @ Simmons Conference,
Boston 2012
