‘‘Don’t go into architecture unless you’re really passionate about it. For most architects, success does not come for many years. There are many other professions to make more money and have fast rewards. Passion is the order of the day.’’

‘‘You need to work in a firm, company, or environment that believes in doing good when you are starting a career. Do not be wrapped up over your salary and remuneration in your early years. Your very first job will set your career path for you. You need drive, passion and perseverance — without these, you are not suited to a design career.’’

‘‘Dare to dream and to explore. You should wonder ‘what is architecture’ day after day, as you find new reasons to ask the same question.’’
‘‘You need to believe in yourself and in the things that you do. No one will believe in you unless you are confident about your abilities. Do not be intimidated by people who are more senior or has more experience. There is no one in this world who knows everything.’’
‘‘Go beyond what you see, and treat the world as a blank canvas. A vision has no form, be daring to explore the formless form.’’
‘‘Spend time alone with yourself. This is necessary to clear your head and shut out the noise. Learn to listen and trust your own instincts. Once you find your own distinct voice, be brave and prove the majority wrong.’’
