"Sometimes I am asked about the secret to my success. I reply I really don’t know… but I live by three principles that I wanted to share with you today:

  • Do better than your very best. Don’t do just average
  • Always look forwards, never backwards
  • At some time in your life, you will fail but it’s about how you deal with it.

“My favourite quote is from Denzel Washington: ‘Fall down seven times, get up eight, but never be satisfied with failure’." - Dinesh Patel
