– Frankly speaking \u2013 <\/em>Prof. Skar\u017cy\u0144ski had begun with a humorous reference to the title of the host magazine, \u2018Wprost\u2019 meaning \u2018frankly\u2019 \u2013 today we can speak about our success on a global scale. In the World Hearing Center we perform daily the largest in the world number of hearing improving surgeries. It is many times more than the leading centers in the USA and Europe. There is no other center that reaches even the half of our results. \u2013 <\/em>added Prof. Skar\u017cy\u0144ski seriously.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In response to the question asked by Jacek P\u0142ochopie\u0144, chief editor of the \u2018Wprost\u2019 who was moderating the debate, how such success can be achieved, Prof. Skar\u017cy\u0144ski had responded:<\/p>\n

– The most important is the belief in success. Also, you need to know what the needs in a given field are. If hearing was not of crucial importance for the development of modern society and if it did not have such impact of communication between people which determines that we remember, process and pass on, then the need for our services would probably be smaller. It is also necessary to remember that at the base of the success lays a hard work and risk. <\/em><\/p>\n

Other questions asked during the debate regarded the barriers and limitations encountered by people of success. Professor Skar\u017cy\u0144ski had pointed out that the most important is the ability to perceive the difficulties not as a danger, but as an opportunity for development.<\/p>\n
