1. What has been your biggest lesson in life so far?
Let the people who are important to you know. Tomorrow might be too late.

2. What mattered to you when you were younger that doesn't matter now?
Other people's opinion of me.

3. What matters to you now that didn't matter when you was younger?
Can't think of an answer.

4. If you could go back and change anything, would you? If yes, what would you change?
This is/was totally out of my control, but I wish my brother had not been killed. Not sure this is what you meant though.

5. What was the most valuable piece of advice you have ever been given?
Actually two things
a - "trust your staff" that translates to me not having to be in control of everything 24/7
b - "stop being an ahole" There's a long back story, but the short version is that if someone is trying to give you something be kind and accept it.

6. What has mattered most in your life and What has brought you the most meaning to your life so far?
My mom

7. What is your biggest regret?
I prefer to not have regrets in life. There have been some decisions I wish I could go back and change and some things that have happened in my life I would prefer not to have experienced, but all those things went into creating the person I am today. I like the person I am. If those things were changed I would not be who I am.


8. And finally, what do you hope to understand as you get older?
Sorry, I can't think of an answer to this one.

I'm 60
