What have I learnt from Sue's success story:
1. a vivid imagination and all that comes with it like fantasy and make-believe is an important ability to have
2. Seek out the whimsical, beautiful and fantastic in your life - they may just contain the gold you're looking for
3. follow your instincts
4. Share what you love and find interesting - it may just be what you should do to be successful
5. have a clear purpose for what you are doing (hint: making money is not one of them!)
6.whatever you choose to do, make sure it's something that provides you the opportunity to pass along your love for life,to follow your instincts and to remain true to your values

Quote: At night, I remember gazing into the heavens, thinking about the billions and billions of stars that sparkled in the northern sky. I wondered if my life would shine brilliantly like one of the bright stars above, or if my life would be like one of the billion stars that just faded off into the vastness of space. Determined to shine brilliantly, I followed my childhood dream . . .
