The first thing I do when I wake up is ...
Remember God and thank Him humbly for blessing me with another
exciting, uplifting and momentous day.
Ideally I would spend every day ... Sampling a new
dessert.
If money was no object I would ... Share it all
with the needy and destitute.
The greatest gift I have ever received was ...
The
greatest gift I continue to receive, which is my family and friends
praying for my welfare and happiness.
My one piece of advice would be ... Keep faith in
God, appreciate His singularity and transcendence, and always
discharge yourself with integrity, honesty, respectfulness and
decency.
My first job was ... As a management
consultant.
I'm scared of ... Not having an inspiring
challenge to embrace.
I'm excited by ... The prospect of the next
exciting and inspiring challenge.
If I could go back in time and do one thing again it would
be ... To spend more time frequenting the theatre and
watching my favourite plays.
I love ... God.
I hate ... Nothing for hate is a word alien to my
humble though endearing vocabulary.
I want ...
To see a world in which we all live in
peace, amity and happiness, in which we all celebrate the diversity
and plurality of humanity, with mutual tolerance and allowing all
faiths and cultures to co-exist in harmony and consonance.
You have to read ... Giants of Engineering Science
authored by my younger brother,
Everyone should listen to ... All The Time In The
World by Louis Armstrong.
You must watch ... On Her Majesty's Secret Service
and On The Waterfront
If I could be anyone else I would be ... No one
else
My ultimate ambition would be ... To carry on
serving humanity with humility and dignity and always be there for
my family and friends when they need me.
My biggest inspiration has been ... My wonderful
parents who are my best friends.
I think God is ... The pivot of my life
My epitaph would be ... A humble servant to
humanity.
