Every month, the Ci Research website – www.ci-research.com – posts a Q&A with a member of the team. Every Q&A includes the question “what is the best advice you have ever received?”
For our final Top 10 of 2010, we wanted to share a selection of these words of wisdom.
10. Anna Davydova-Nicholls
“‘You make your own working environment’ (my first manager) and ‘Keep a spade in the car in the winter’ (my Dad).”
9. Andrew Roberts
““Son, the easy way is not always the best way and never the most rewarding way”. My dad’s explanation as to why I was a blue rather than a red following our relegation to League One.”
8. Andy Wright
“Get over yourself (I’m still working on that one)!”
7. Edyta Kusmierska
“You should never regret that you are not someone else.”
6. Amy Wilde
“Look both ways before you cross the road.”
5. Lynsey Cargill
“As quite a few of the quotes in the Handbook of Life allude to, the best piece of advice I’ve ever received is, ‘life’s too short’.”
4. Lindsey Wall
“Enjoy life. This is not a dress rehearsal”.
3. Gareth Hodgson
“If you are running further than 10 miles, put elastoplasts on your nipples.”
2. Anthony Shephard
“Only do it if it’s fun. If it’s not fun, make it fun. If you can’t make it fun, don’t do it.”
1 – James Oliver
“I’ll keep this one seasonal – never eat yellow snow!”
