Memorable Quotes
“Sometimes, you know, humor is the best way to deal with life’s adversities. And if we are talking a little bit more seriously than according to classical psychology, humor is one of the mature coping strategies if you face adversity in life.” – Kristina Mand-Lakhiani
“We are so fascinated with the idea that we have a talent that we are sometimes forgetting that we are multi-talented. And this was another key to the puzzle because it is not your particular talent that makes you the best in the world. It’s a combination of your unique talents that makes you so valuable because the combination is what is unique, not the facet by facet.” – Kristina Mand-Lakhiani
