To achieve anything worthwhile with your life - be comfortable with being uncomfortable.

 


If you want to be successful, you need to be uncomfortable. Everything which you are proud of in your life, you had to struggle and fight for it. Thats why it is so precious to you.

To achieve the great heights, you need to (be) :

a) disciplined

b) focussed (your goals)

c) mentally strong 

d) persevere and pick up after each failure

e) hard working 

f) lucky

I recall with much pride the 2 biggest single chamber sold in Singapore by QRA INTERNATIONAL in recent years to Defence Science Organization and Sports Singapore were very trying times, mentally and physically for me and my team. That was in 2015 and 2016.

In the end, when we completed it, and now when we look back, I am happy to say that we contributed in several ways to :

a) enhance the defence capabilities of Singapore through science.

b) enhance and improve the sporting excellence of our national athletes

To reach great heights in anything, business, sports, and in one's personal life  a lot of sacrifice, blood, sweat and tears needs to be shed. 

People only see the outcomes of that success. But they are blind to the sacrifices and toils which led to the final outcome. Many times, it is a sad ending.

Only the strongest mentally and physically survive the tests and an even smaller number climb up to the very top and achieve the unimaginable beyond their wildest dreams and plans.
