Incident Reporting

undefined

Reading and Studying.

Information, they say, is key.

When you refuse to be informed, you are deformed.

Reading and studying makes and helps me stay informed.

When you read other people's stories of success and failure, it helps you shape your own life in the direction it must go.

My reading habit keeps me informed even before an incident occurs.
