Health

Actively watch over the health, regularly pass inspections - this is very important. I do not trust modern interactive tracking systems for health, I prefer to refer to the traditional doctors, whom I know well.

In 2014, for the first time I broke down the post. I liked it, so I plan to repeat. It is not as a religious practice, but rather out of interest: the feeling is very interesting occur during fasting. I will continue.

time management and social networks

I have a very busy schedule different trips in different regions, so time management is mainly built around travel. During the trips are usually nowhere in a hurry. In airports and train stations come in advance. Especially now that these objects are organized in such a way that they have a good time, right there, you can work and relax.

My schedule planned for several months in advance, and I always love it when I know exactly where, when and what I'll do. I am very uncomfortable, if something happens spontaneously, I try to avoid such situations.

Do not use social networks and I do not read the news (Headers only if necessary).

Life around you is too important to spend time mostly useless and often false information.

I prefer to communicate regularly with close friends in person rather than through live chat.

Finance

I have to respect the rule of money, because they get sometimes hard work, but do not make their presence is the main goal of his life. In other words, do not be upset because of unplanned expenses if these expenses are related to health or safety, or comfort - yours and friends.

success secrets

Its operational tasks short write on paper, then, as their implementation is expunged. It gives a sense of completion of the process, goals, even if these goals are small.

I appreciate the people around them and trust them very much. Not afraid delegate its powers, even if I do know that he personally would like to perform the task more efficiently.

In addition to the operational work that must be done every day (and life cycle at which a maximum of a week or two), I there is always more global goals and aspirations, in order to achieve that you need a comprehensive work for several years. When this goal is achieved, I find myself a new one.

It is also very important for me to show their humane side: to help those who need help (Charity), to share positive experiences with those who are younger than you (regularly give lectures to students and students).

I never try to assess their actions and decisions in the past. If they were wrong, or wrong, focus is now on addressing the problems that they have created, and I do not think about how it would be nice if I did not.

Travel and tourism

I always try to go from Kiev to rest. In Ukraine and in the world, I have favorite places, where the mood is lifted, regardless of the time of year and weather. For example, Bruges in Belgium, Bergamo, Italy, Odessa in Ukraine. There are many places, but I try to visit them regularly at least once a year.

I have my own rituals and traditions of traveling. For example, visiting favorite places in some cities, because most often in my life happened there anything important or positive. Such rituals allow me to dive in good condition.

An example of this ritual: whenever I get to Scotland, I stop in the city of Inverness and climb there on the hill in the city center, where there is a local castle. From there you enjoy an incredible view - probably the best view I've ever seen in my life. This is very inspiration. Furthermore, on the hill right in the center of live wild mountain hares, for them it is very interesting to watch.

At the same time always try to get somewhere in a new place, where else never was. Even when traveling to the place where I happen often, always I try to find something new, whether it's a new city or a museum, or a natural beauty. This is important for the horizon, and to understand how this planet, and new knowledge.

Of course, I am very hard to disconnect from work, because it is always with me, if you have not sat down battery of my phone. However, trying to live in the style of "here and now", to prioritize and focus on what what is important, Depending on where I am and what I'm doing. If now it is important not to think about work, and read a book, lying on the beach, I focus on reading lying. :)

House

At home I have a lot of books and whiskey. :) And also a good music system with lots of columns.

Inspiration and development

I never am looking for motivation in business literature or biographies of famous contemporaries of the business environment. I prefer to look for inspiration and new ideas in the history books and the stories of people from other spheres of human activity, especially those who admired in his youth (Ozzy Osbourne, for example).

I always try to teach or learn something new every day. Whether a new languageIn which, perhaps, you will not have to ever talk or pieces of world history (everything in the world tends to repeat itself) or something new from colleagues. Around me a lot of brilliant and just talented people who know and can do what you do not know or do not know how to do.

I listen to a lot of different kinds of music - from Bach to experimental heavy metal. Music creates the necessary mood, Energizes, and it helps to get out of emotional states, which I do not want to stay long. A lot of attention is paid to the sounds of nature and human life - they are very much complete the picture of life around me.

Beliefs and Philosophy

I prefer to remain non-public persona. In this status, I can bring a lot more good people around me, than if I was in the "spotlight" and a lot of time spent on maintaining the public status. But almost always respond to calls and messages that come from unfamiliar people, if they are adequate.

I think all the people around him equal and communicate with them as you would like them to communicate with me. Object of public contempt of the people and will never take part in open conflict.

I have no idols or people whom I imitate.

No people white and black, there are people gray and black. :)

At the most brilliant people and idols of the masses has always been present the dark side of the personality. Especially I think it is wrong to focus on great peopleRadically changed the world, even if positive. As a rule, they were ingenious crazy and often with very poor human qualities.

In life, as a rule, I go against the majority opinion, stick to non-conformist attitudes and beliefs. It seems to me that society always need a group of people that can provide an alternative opinion or behavior of the majority.

I think all the people around you are absolutely positive and treat them accordingly until then, until they prove otherwise.

I think that the word "hate" is too negative. From what you are someone hateWorse happens to you exclusively.

I am sure that every person is currently at his position in society solely because of their own decisions and actions in the past. Blame anyone that something did not happen in life - a sign of weakness.

That is why it makes no sense to dig into the past or to deny yourself now something for the future. We must live for the day and get everything out of life that you can take.

In situations when you need to make a choice, I always do it. If you abstract from decision making or make a conscious choice, you take the wrong decision or make an incorrect choice.

One should always apologize for their mistakes and take responsibility for their actions or for the actions of subordinates. So you at least become more sincere and honest in relation to others and to themselves.

I'm pretty self-critical, to declare any of their own success. The more that ...

Perhaps that is why I will refrain from their announcement audacious goals, they are often quite personal. :)
