Think faster or run faster
I am not a mushroom, although I'm not always convinced of that when the lights are off. It could be that I morph with ludicrous speed as soon as the lights are turned on, so I may never know. Which is in itself why I could be a mushroom....you know....being in the dark and all that.
The chinese say I am a rat. Thank you, I say. Thank you very much. Not a unicorn, or even a mushroom. But a rat. I'm not a mafia rat though...one of those 'you dirty rat you' rats. But a rat nonetheless.
I guess that means I am human...part of the rat race. And that's why I was led to the belief that while in this race, you have two choices:
Think faster...or run faster.
Otherwise you'll just get trampled. Don't get confused with the trampling part....that's not a third choice, but a consequence of not making a choice between the first two choices.

I'm 32 year old entrepreneur and company owner. My current focus is my company, Freefallers, which designs and manufactures skydiving freefall simulators for public entertainment. My work is my life, because through my work I can bring about positive change in society, with a focus on job creation and education.
I want to leave my mark, but I don't want to leave a stain - a human stain.
I have another life - and that's my music. I've been a drummer and percussionist for 17 years, and played with all sorts, from orchestras to jazz to metal. I love music. It's my honest, unedited expression of me.
