Don’t wait till your old age before you start learning how to balance life. Every aspect of life counts. The greatest achievers are those who find themselves at the top of the pyramid of Abraham Maslow’s Motivational Theory. Self actualisation speaks to a purpose-driven life, it speaks to the pursuit of meaning, creativity, personal growth and inner joy. You may find some of these in your day job today but definitely not all.
Strategic thinking is the ability to analyse complex situations, anticipate future challenges and opportunities, plan proactively to surmount any identified challenge and harness the opportunities therein.
In summary, success today does not guarantee success tomorrow. You have to be intentional. Accountants count net worth in figures. Sometimes they add goodwill. If you want to count your net worth, don't forget to balance your scorecard. Money does not answer everything.
If you achieved your goals in 2025, be grateful. If you had unmet expectations, be grateful. If you rode through the storms like me in what looks like a difficult year, still be grateful. My charge to you in 2026 - live life from the positive side. Be grateful.

Memory is in two parts. There are good memories and there are bad memories but all memories relate to the past. Good memories can inspire you but you can also be restricted by your past if you operate predominantly from your memories, even if they are good memories, let alone bad memories.
