		<description><![CDATA[Hi Marc,

Always keeping it real and giving good advice. If you&#039;re not being honest, you&#039;re not providing value. What&#039;s the point then?

At the end of the day, you will be judged by results... these speak for themselves - can&#039;t fake that.

Appreciate your words of wisdom.

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Marc,

I&#039;ve always operated under the philosophy that my role as a consultant is to tell  clients what they need to hear, not necessarily what they want to hear. If you&#039;re lucky, they mesh. If you&#039;re not, they hire someone else and you&#039;re lucky too because they&#039;re probably not the right client for you.

Besides, there are lots of potential clients, but you only have one reputation. As you said, at the end of the day it&#039;s about being honest and adding value one interaction at a time.

Best,
Daria]]></description>
