Profile
Name: Chua Gek Huey (chuagh74@gmail.com)
Some of my thoughts and principles in life:
- Others can let you down, but never let others down; 宁人负我 毋我负人
- I advocate "Love what you do" instead of "Do what you love"
- Event + Responses = Outcome; good outcome comes from good responses even if it is a bad event
- Contribute back to society; 取诸社会 用诸社会
- Success is when you make others succeed
- Life is not meant to be fun, it is for you to make it fun
- A little smile means so much; A little help means as much
