be?
Margaret Thatcher, Arnold Palmer
2. What was the last book you read? What books do you love to recommend?

I'd love to own and operate a bar overlooking the ocean on the island of
Hawaii or Kauai.
4. What is your definition of success?
Accomplishment (results), leadership (guiding others to succeed with
behaviors they can be proud of), peace of mind (integrity and satisfaction
with accomplishment and leadership), happiness (strong relationships with
friends and family).
