These 2 books impacted my life in the positive way.

Each of them impacted me in some ways to continue learning and be curious about myself, the world, and others.

I've been lucky for many things from being born to our parents

The environment I was in shaped my life in the early stage which drives me daily to be who I am today.

If I feel not productive, I go into total relax mode

Give me more responsiblity

Every time I have to present in front of audiences, I'm not familiar wit

First, I'm not big fan of public speaking. Second, it take me awhile to read the room

Being short since I'm thinking about million things in my head

leave me alone and give me time to think

I made a few million dollar mistakes for the client.

I recovered during the IRS audit by being upfront about our mistakes and working with the agent. What I learned was, to be honest and work with people to solve the issues. Even the IRS agents are reasonable.

I'm good at taking what works for others and adopting to what works for us

strategic meetings, 1-1 meeting, client works

I'll start analysing why things are not working first. Then starting to figure out how to solve the issue.

too strict, scary

R&D credits for one of Japanese companies

After another CPA firm told them they won't qualify, we dug in and found close to $10M credits over 3 years which we won't on the IRS audits. The client was very happy with our work and saved about 100 jobs in the US

Finishing many projects during the tax deadline. Great team work

After losing a few members, we were still able to meet deadlines and ensure quality work for our clients. Total team work from everyone stepping up/

Classic romantic comedy

Sloppiness, no accountability, not taking ownership, no thorough

It appears that people don't care about what they committed to

Presenting me with problems without any guidances

Autonomy to come up with solutions and system

detail, persistent, don't give up, self-starter,

Notifications off, nice glass of wine, be in the nature, binge watch NCIS

Traveling

I want to be a better leader from learning how I react to things

Only thing keeping my company to grow is me

do what they say they do, come up with innovative ways to solve problems

accountability, problem solving, caring, detail

I lived in 4 different countries.

I'm pretty active including running, going to the gym, skying, surfing, etc
