    Listening to George leaves me with a punchline that no situation is permanent as long as you got yourself together and be positive minded,you’ll sail through..😀😍

    George narrates this story in such a humorous way, you only realize later it's a sad story.

    What an amazing inspiring talk. I am in the middle of a stormy sea right now and this is what I needed to hear. I lost two family members in 2022, one being my spouse and my business is literally teetering on a knife edge. I am so encouraged by George Ikua's story. It shall be well with me and my children and business too!

    I don't know why i bumped into this stort but guess it's a way of the universe telling me to still hang in on there, if i am still breathing then i will be ok.The key sentence is,it's just a pendulum it's not over,it's swinging.

    The accountants part was so hilarious but true! .it is one job a swore never to do, because i used to see how chaotic accounts departments looked. Little did i know i would get a job involving accounting. What i do realise though being organised is everything. So to be a smart accountant you must be very organised. I love being one.
