- Let’s Learn with Jeff Yong -
Don't have a clear direction in life?
Jeff's story is going to inspire you and help you move forward.
At school, Jeff was never one of the top scorers. However, he knew what he wanted in life, very early on.
Jeff’s dream to be a business owner started at the young age of 9. However, the journey from helping his mum at her hair saloon, to now being a multiple award-winning business owner, was never easy.
His most notable business role being the CEO & Founder of HAIRDEPOT, one of Malaysia’s leading hair and scalp care retail chains with more than 30 outlets located in Malaysia.
“Change” & “Perseverance” are the 2 keywords that Jeff holds dear to his heart, and he believes everyone should have these values in mind as early in life as possible.
Here are quick sharing of lessons we learned from Jeff:
1. Travel around the world to change your views on life.
2. Take the time to find out your objectives in life.
3. Being alive itself is our most important and biggest win.
4. Most people take for granted little things in their lives. Learn to appreciate small wins too.
5. A career is not a destination, but a process.
6. Always prepare your next goal (after you hit your current goal).
7. The moment you give up on yourself, you’ve already died inside.
8. There’s no lack of smart people in this world, only people who can execute and persevere on their dreams.
9. The fastest way to be grow bigger is to solve more problems.
10. Your capability comes from the problems that you’ve solved.
11. No one can conclude that you’ve lost, until you give up on yourself.
12. Whenever you feel like giving up, ask yourself, “Why did I start in the first place?”
13. Most events are neutral. We get to choose to label them either as positive or negative.
14. Be very aware of yourself when you start becoming negative, and switch your thoughts immediately.
15. Sharing negativity on social media doesn’t help anyone at all.
16. The hardest thing to change is ourselves. It’s the easiest too.
