You are the captain of your life, the chooser of your fate, the architect and builder of your unique, fleeting, and precious existence.

How do you see yourself?
In today’s hyper-connected world, it becomes so easy to get swept away in the opinions of others.

Measure of a Man
At first, we may get attracted to people initially based on how they look, talk or carry themselves.
