Yesterday, I had a meeting with a couple of union leaders at the Ironworkers office.
I also met with a nice lady and her two nephews who are about to graduate high school. She read about me in the newspapers and wanted me to help motivate her nephews. I told the two boys about myself. I shared how I got involved in sports, community, business, law, and politics. Since everything I do is strategized and planned years in advance, I showed them my strategy book and calendar. I explained how I came up with my strategy to better Hawaii when I was in college. I also shared that life is full of ups and downs and challenges, thus, I gave them an advanced copy of my summarized strategy to achieve, compassion, happiness, and peace. It was nice to see how much their aunty cared for them. I wish many good things for them!
