Inspirational Everyday People

In my last post, I said that the favourite part of my job is client liaising.

Occasionally, I'd come across individuals who have inspirational stories of their own. In the last month, I met a hotelier who started out as a factory worker and is now the GM of a hotel in KL; I met an executive chef who worked the paddy fields at age nine and broke his spinal bone carrying 40kg of rice on his head; I met a lady entrepreneur whose paper trading business makes millions, allowing her to now pursue her real passion of interior design; I met the founder of an international training company whose first job was making roti canai.

They are humble people with great stories to tell. Perhaps this will one day be a Wit & Words project - Working title: Dream Big
