Keynote speaking has taken a very important place in my life. I convey the information I have experienced and personally experienced to people. I think it is useful in that profession. I love it. I can play billiards very comfortably until my 60s. But even in my 90s, I can talk, maybe slowly, but I talk. I have been a person who likes to develop in other aspects of my life.

I am a person who takes good care of myself. Although I am 57 years old, I am in good physical condition. My achievements are great but my life is small, I live with modesty. I am a person who does the job well done."
