“Küçükken oyunlarımda konuşmalar yapardım, büyüyünce akademisyen oldum.” İsmail Tuncer Değim, hayat yolculuğunda tutkuyla çalışmanın önemini kendi hikâyesi üzerinden anlatıyor. Yorulduğunda dinlenmek yerine başka bir işe koyulduğunu söylüyor. Ona göre, bir işi güzel yaparsanız mutlaka birini etkilersiniz.Bir iş ne kadar yürekle yapılırsa, hayat da o emeğe göre şekillenir. Ancak önemli bir denge vardır: “Çok çalışan kazanır ama dinlenmesini bilmeyen çalışmasını da bilmez.”Sevgi, başarıda temel taşlardan biridir. Bir şeyi severek yaptığınızda hayat mutlaka karşılığını verir. Yeterince istenen bir hedef, belki herkese değil ama mutlaka birilerine dokunur.Mesajı net: Bir şeyleri başarmak istiyorsanız önce sevin, sonra yürekle çalışın. Çünkü hayat, sevgiyle yapılan işin ödülünü er ya da geç verir.

They say motherhood is the most beautiful chapter of a woman’s life, but for me, it broke me wide open. I found myself drowning in postpartum depression, feeling ugly, unworthy, and painfully lost… but what I didn’t know then was that in breaking, I was being invited to rise.
