“People will always have a safety net to fall back on. But if you let it, you can end up being sucked in a job you hate for years and years.”
“If you can almost turn around the way you’re looking at your situation, use it as something that’s going to motivate you to make a change because you have that ability. Only you have that ability to change your situation. So if you’re not happy about it, then bloody do something about it.”
“We have a culture where we try to accept everyone for who they are, We are very much a strength based business. You always want to be improving your employees. You also want to accept them for their strengths because that’s when they’re going to perform their best. Give them a role where they’re going to excel and help them develop and be the best they can be because that’s the much shorter part from getting good to great.”
“Not everyone has been lucky enough to find something they’re passionate about but I want to say ‘Don’t give up!’ Keep looking because it’s out there. You might have to go through a bit more heartache to find it but just never give up.”
