Missing Keys & Hidden Opportunities.

In life there are obstacles and opportunities. The interesting part of obstacles is they are actually opportunities in disguise. On Sunday evening as Drew and I were about to head home, I went to my purse to grab my car keys only they were not in my purse. I searched everywhere but no keys could […]

Four Word Fun…damentals

Inspired by Seth Godin’s four word statement: “Do Work That Matters,” I’ve taken the liberty to come up with some other ones that I’d like to share. Feel free to pass them on, incorporate them into your lives and come up with some of your own (which I then hope you will share with us). […]

Free Admission

I, Joann Lim, am perfectly imperfect. I make mistakes. I am wrong sometimes. The more I know, the more I realize I don’t know. I am unrealistically realistic. I am my biggest critic.
