Education and reflection

My friend stopped work for one year to study for an masters degree in a UK university. Here are his thoughts as he reflected on his father (who had since passed away)

Hi!

Looking further backward, I didn't really study well when I was a student in both primary school & lower secondary school - because I was too playful. This is my regret.
If my father is still around, he will be quite surprised to know the route that I have chosen and came this far.
He is wise. From his point of view, university education is probably a luxury and he probably never expected me to graduate from a university.


He was correct in pointing out that the most important education was probably during primary and secondary schooling because if the student was brilliant, he or she could gain all the necessary and sufficient knowledge and character to succeed as in business.

He once told me that, the years spent by the top 10 richest Chinese businessmen in Malaysia was less than 15 years. The most important criteria were attitude, determination, willingness to work hard, confidence, self-esteem, respect of elders and teachers.


Treat others like you would like to be treated and have a willingness to serve or help others. These characteristics would made him a successful businessman by bringing valuable products to serve a particular market.
