    "Life is not a stage, Life is a war made up of many battles, some battles you win and some you lose. Just because you lose some battles doesn't mean you've lost the war."

    Just because you are losing some battles, doesn't mean you have lost the war......my take home. Thank you, Ronald!

    I know this man... very humble and a brother from another mother back in school... a very influential person ... you have no idea who he is until you stay with him

    I stumbled onto this channel and I cannot believe how fantastic the experience has been. This was a fantastic speech! I totally empathised with the speaker to the point where I believe I felt his every emotion....
    Thank you!

    Just to mention I've listened to this particular engage talk countless times, shared it in one of my Msc classes and they absolutely loved it. Thanks Ronald for sharing this. It gets me going through the tough days.

    I hope many people who give up easily should listen to our brother here in Christ.This behaviour is the only way to survive on this planet.

  • @petermutua9838
    @petermutua9838 Před 2 lety +5

    One of the insights for me is Starehe School's strong ethos, starting from the personality of Geoffrey Griffin and reinforced by the strong sense of community through its Old Starehians Society. There is a great deal to learn from this in the area of community/nation building i.e. that people can coalesce around a value system regardless of ethnicity/social/financial status and get things done...

    This Ronny was powerful! Thank you so much for sharing. Especially the aspect of the toll things took on your family. A lot of times we forget the families that find themselves sacrificing when people benefit from a leader. Wishing you and your family the very best.

    This is powerful journey and it was narrated in a way we could all understand..
    I loved your resilience to join starehe and if you could put the same you would probably be a dp one day.
    The part you said collymore said you had a return ticket tells more about him.
