3 Skills
My work ethic impresses! Thankfully I've followed advice of Peter Ragnar over the years. His philosophy is simply to do all you can. This mindset frees up energy to assume a great attitude, to fully be there for your fellows, whether friends, family, co workers or customers. I am aware that the moment may be put to the best possible use.
