When I met Ariana I was a man without purpose and a pushover who struggled in leadership roles. Ariana showed me the amazing person inside me and how to stop holding him back.
Now, I am a leader and a builder. I've built 4 teams at Facebook, all outperformed expectations, one of them by 5x the other teams. I won a leadership award that my peers nominated me for. I started Happy and Successful, a program to support engineers which has grown to 8 circles and almost 50 people. I started a 3000 person group called One Kind Act a Day. And I surprised my entire family when I, the socially inept kid they thought they knew, gave a wedding toast that blew them away.
At the same time I am taking care of myself with better sleep and exercise. I have strengthened my relationship with my wife with better listening, communication, and empathy. I am more present with my children, I spend more time with them, and understand them better than I ever did.
My growth has taken a lot of effort, but the difference from my past self is night and day. Thank you Ariana!
