To My Prospective Boss
I wronged myself, others and followed the wrong path, something I am still working towards & I will redeem myself - but now more than ever I cannot yield for I know the capacity & strategic potential of Yonis. Sometimes when one innovates, you will make mistakes & its best to admit them and get on with your innovations.
To many I have failed especially to the close ones and those who have been following me with positive intent & I am truly sorry for that but failure not! Not according to me and I know I have a big ladder to climb to prove that for one is often judged by what he has done and not what he is capable of. One never really knows how good he is until he goes out and faces failure. This is a test for me and I will not yield. If there is one certainty in my life, it is that I have never been more explicit about my alpha potential and it will be wrong to yield now for anything less than premium and long term viability.
Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Which is exactly what is needed in my case, not negative but positive tension. If one´s strategy does not have a tension driven story, one does not have a strategy.
Excessive pompousness is no substitute for real character, vision and most of all positive energy.
We all have to start somewhere in life. The key being inclusive, work hard but never lose your eventual sight, character, goal and vision. Good managers come & go but innate talent is rare and should be nortured and capitalized on.
Simplicity and being detail oriented is the key, but more than anything getting outside your comfort zone, loyalty and showing humility. The world is a small place and I for one will never be apologetic about seeing arbitrage wherever it maybe.
Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves. Emotionally driven calculated boldness is not a hindrance, rather has been my catalyst and showed me the way in many ways. I will start where I need to and from there scale on.
Great visionary leaders & managers have a knack for finding talent in the wrong places in this world and I for one have no doubt Yonis Inc is viable and bankable with almost guarenteed exponential growth.
Will conclude with a quote from one of the great visionaries of the 21st century, Steve Jobs:
¨In most people´s vocabularies, design means veneer. It´s interior decorating. It´s the fabric of the curtains of the sofa. But to me, nothing could be further from the meaning of design. Design is the fundamental soul of a human-made creation that ends up expressing itself in successive outer layers of the product or service¨
