| MY EXPERIENCE WITH GRACE I |
| For the first time, I realized that I needed to link my inner being and sometimes spiritual being with my project. I learned to engage my brain more than usual and allow my spirit to be free to think and engage my surroundings to be able to discover the hidden meanings of my actions and the people around me. However, this took some time since I found it time consuming and sometimes demanding and exhausting. One of the main reasons was that it required one to have overall control over the project so as to be able to make decisions and gain ownership of them. |
