My Context of Practice
My Faith keeps me grounded, through the values of
compassion, humility and honesty. I believe in
doing what is right, and I believe that everyone has
the right to choose their life path. I take
responsibility for my life choices and behaviours,
and have control over my own reality.
My professional integrity makes me reliable. My
mind and heart are always open to new possibilities.
I am calm in a crisis and create an atmosphere of
peace. I take deliberate action with challenges, and
view them as opportunities. Change is a positive
motivator to be innovative and creative. I have a
positive work life balance, and find enjoyment in
both.
My lived experiences have shaped the person I am.
The mistakes I have made are the many lessons
learned.
