“Obviously this stuff takes a bit of planning, but I've always been someone that sets achievable short-term goals. I've never been someone that's had a five-year plan, or a three-year plan. That just seems to lead to a lot of disappointment, and doesn't give you the chance to be flexible. So I've just always been someone that's sort of reassessed where I'm at, and set goals that are realistic. And luckily, I've had plenty of chances to recalibrate and adjust, and good fortune's come my way.” WayGivingYearsSeemsThreeStuffBitsGoalTermChanceFivePlansFortuneDisappointmentPlanningPlentyMy WayFive YearsRealisticThree YearsFlexibleSetting GoalsShort TermGood FortuneFive Year PlansShort Term Goals Author:Eric Bana

“In the years of the Roman Republic, before the Christian era, Roman education was meant to produce those character traits that would make the ideal family man. Children were taught primarily to be good to their families. To revere gods, one's parents, and the laws of the state were the primary lessons for Roman boys.
