His 3 pointers

1) Connecting the dots. He looked back his life. its likes dots connecting n lead to his current achievements.
~Looking back at mine.. i think the biggest & Best Dot is my parents' divorce. It lead me to become more independent and mature at younger age. Have to come out work part time waitress @ seoul garden at 14... I had to be stronger to fend for myself... I dun get to enjoy parental loves..
BUT i have my forever loving aunties n grandma & i love them always!
~I'm left with grandma & ended up, i get proper guidance to my studies instead..Think i'll be worse if left with my parents. At least I have a degree.. wont die of hunger outside..
~If i'm not in NUS, i wont get to know Lifen, n i wont be here now.. I always rem Lifen is the one tat lead me to having current happy lifestyle...
~& I brought dear into this industry that lead him to better heights!

2) Love & Lost. Steve stopped his boring & meaningless studies. He pursues wat he really loves.. "Find wat u love" "In work, love wat u do" "Follow ur heart n intuition"
~I totally agree with this.. Before joining Pru, i worked in few other companies... When i joined this industry, i know immediately this is the rite 1 for me liao.. the job is jus me lor.. i can jus talk naturally n be happy...
~tats why even till now, i'm still doing good & still enjoying my job..
~I have this "intuition" or "feeling" when i hit the rite one.
Eg, when i started out with dear, i know from tat moment, he's the rite one... hee... jus the same feeling as my current job oh...

3) Treat everyday as though its ur last day. He got cancer last time n got cured. So he treasure everyday.. it makes him make decisions "to do it".. keep looking, dun settle..
~Hmm.. this i haven really make full use oh.. cos i think i'm still lazing ard.. Din really make every a fruitful one... i din visit grandma as often as i shd... din do tele as often... din do housework as much... din help dear manage agents much etc...
~oki.. I think starting to go jogging makes life abit more meaningful ba.. @ least i'm not nua-ing everyday...
~Personally i think i din put alot effort in my sales.. but i'm actually happy with my current "relax" closing rate oh.. my close colleagues always say why i like relax relax can do so well still... Hmmm.. think cos i enjoy it ma.. i think as long i'm happy can liao.. but must have enuf money la..

His golden words:

-"Stay Hungry"
i understand it as... when 1 is hungry, 1 will always hav the drive to improve & strive to do better. Or innovate to find better ways to make things better. When contented/"full", tats the end for learning n improving n innovating.. keep looking.. dun settle..

-"Stay Foolish"
i undertand it as... dun think ownself is too clever (聪明反被聪明误).. or sometimes when 1 think things simply, foolishly , innocently... u may get a whole new idea.. or something extraordinary.. think out of the box...
