We can either cope with life or participate in it. Those who are coping usually do not scale up, and start looking out for contentment and satisfaction primarily outside their work, seeking external solace, early retirement, sabbaticals, etc. Those who enthusiastically participate are able to harness the abundance that life offers. They fall and grow with the ongoing rhythm of life – at all times, life is an act of destruction and creation resulting in abundance. It is a continuous motion of change that never results in permanent death.

When setting up a business in Australia there are several key planning items that should be addressed which are not always front-of-mind, but if ignored may result in costly mistakes. For example, if an overseas company is conducting business in Australia, it will be required to lodge the foreign parent’s financial statements with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) each year, as well as have other obligations. Therefore it is common for foreign businesses to have an Australian subsidiary.

I recently met a fine entrepreneur who has been in the field of health care for some time now. I usually try to engage with a person, then have the general chit chat of “What do you do? How are you?” I asked him what he was trying to accomplish through his amazing organisation, and he said: “We wish to become the best provider of health care services offering affordable and trustworthy care”. This appealed to me. It was a great vision he was trying to achieve, so I was very interested to learn what motivated him to do this.

French auditors draw particular attention to regulations on antimoney laundering and combating terrorist financing (AML/CFT). The aim is to identify and to assess money laundering and terrorist financing risks. Risk levels are defined according to the type of client (natural or legal client, trust, unincorporated collective investors, persons acting on behalf of the client), the client’s situation (activity, location, particularities) and auditor missions (legal or contractual).

How many times have you told yourself, I love challenges? You do this to motivate yourself and to set yourself up for the long haul. And then, the game begins. You accumulate intelligence, knowledge, information, and degrees. You get faster, you become smarter, and you multitask. You believe that you have risen above the ordinary. After all these efforts and the powers bestowed upon you, how can you be doing mundane activities? Right? You would feel underutilised!
