The Man; Mark Carney!

I do not usually read profiles of individuals except they really leave an imprint on me. However for Mark Carney, I just had to. An Oxford as well as Harvard university graduate. He has been described as the outstanding central banker of the year by George Osborne, and it is not all the time you hear the British with their tight upper lip commend people especially when they are non British. However to make a difference you have to break out from the realm of the ordinary to the extra ordinary while still maintaining humility. Mark Joseph Carney was the Canadian central bank governor. He was the eighth Governor of the Bank of Canada and is the Chairman of the G20's Financial Stability Board. These appointments were on October 4, 2007, and on November 4, 2011. However he happens to be the first non British to occupy the position of Governor of bank of england in its 200 years . His wife is also a smart lady, an economist too like him. At some point, I was having a laugh with a colleague, and I say "I believe they will be discussing the economy/work over dinner and she will be making contributions which will help Mark function effectively lol!



Yea its obvious I really admire strong men, but when this combines with humility, it is absolutely mind blowing. Most men can endure adversity but to truly understand a man, test him with power. Mark Carney warmed his way to the heart of most people like me as he was spotted on the train to work. He has really proved that when you know your onus, you break across barriers/protocols. Never say never! Sometimes we are so used to routine that we become uncomfortable with leaving our comfort zone. Dare to be the best at whatever you find yourself doing. Maturity like someone said is not when we do big things but when we start understanding small things. *DREAM BIG*
