Yesterday 9th Dec 2025 was a proud day for our son Andrew Hao Jie. He graduated with the degree of Bachelor of Information Technology from the Queensland University of Technology or QUT. We are very proud and honored to tell all our readers and followers this represents a milestone for us.
My wife and I flew in specially for his graduation and we then had a slap up lunch and dinner together with a good friend from Korea (thanks Quon for coming !).
Life is made for these special unforgettable moments, which mould us. As a proud parent my wish for him now is to land a job, find a nice person and settle down, either in Australia or Singapore.
Our part in supporting him will always be here, that is our promise.
One key takeaway from this wonderful experience is this. Like I have stated numerous times in my earlier post. There are many steps to success, perceived or real, which one needs or must do to 'get there'.
1. Be used to being uncomfortable daily and for the long run. This is the only way you will grow.
2. Every small victory, savour it and smell the roses. Then move on. The road is long and upwards.
3. Be present in good and bad times. Show up. Give no excuses
4. Try your level best. The rest ? Leave it to God.
5. Don't sweat the small stuff. They will always be there. In 5 months or 5 years its just a bump in your road.
6. Never underestimate the threats to you. Always manage the small problems lest they grow into unmanageable fires.
7. Be stoic in tough times. Tough times mould character. Only the toughest survive let alone thrive. We have no other choice.
One life one path one vision many goals.
Carpe Diem
