My intern David Okao asked “What if the west coast workplaces are too demanding? Can you cope?” I replied
- As an adventurer, I don’t mind the risk… robust, resilient confidence
- As an adventurer, I see myself as adaptable, a survivor

- If similar to Macq, I put up a good fight but still fail due to personal “capabilities”, I ought to feel positive about the whole experience.
- I’m good at the job-hunting game so no real worries.
