“When we do the work, we look at it linearly and it goes up. At some point, you will go down and lose confidence. But I also have experience that the moment you learn from adversity, the work comes back stronger. It’s us working and transforming performance into results. Staying quiet and working harder, with greater qualification and efficiency”he added.
