Hello Boss!

My father taught me how to play chess when I was six years old.

When he captured my rook, horse or bishop, I’d get visibly flustered- which subsequently led to a cascade of consecutive checkmates.

The secret to winning in chess and in life, he shared, was to make the next right move.

By staying calm and centered, we can refocus and rise above the chessboard of life and overcome any challenge, any issue, any problem.

What's your challenge today? Rather than getting discombobulated, ask yourself. "What's your next right move?
