WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO YOUR<br />
20-YEAR-OLD SELF?<br />
Dare to follow your passion fearlessly, never give up; do<br />
not be afraid to fail. Fail, fail, <strong>and</strong> fail early to succeed.<br />
Believe in yourself, as most of the time you will be your<br />
only cheerleader until people start to see results.<br />
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO<br />
SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO GIVE UP THEIR<br />
9 - 5 TO START A BUSINESS?<br />
Know thyself; entrepreneurship is not for everybody. It<br />
is a completely different ball game, <strong>and</strong> you must count<br />
the cost before leaving. I advise you to do something<br />
on the side first, build some sort of competence there<br />
before giving up your 9 - 5 job. Starting a business could<br />
be quite stressful but also rewarding if <strong>and</strong> when you<br />
succeed.<br />
HOW DO YOU LOOK AFTER YOUR MENTAL<br />
HEALTH?<br />
I look after my mental health by not taking myself too<br />
seriously, even when I am very serious or focused on a<br />
task. It takes the pressure off, leaving room to be human<br />
<strong>and</strong> vulnerable. One’s mental health should never be<br />
taken for granted. Know where to draw the line, take a<br />
lot of rest, <strong>and</strong> give yourself enough time—great things<br />
take time to actualise.<br />
WHAT BOOK HAS INSPIRED YOU THE MOST?<br />
The Bible is definitely the book that inspires me the most.<br />
I also find that the self-help classic Think <strong>and</strong> Grow Rich<br />
by Napoleon Hill has left impressionable principles in my<br />
mind.<br />
WHAT’S THAT ONE QUOTE YOU LIVE BY?<br />
“Whatever my h<strong>and</strong> finds to do, I will do it with all my<br />
might passionately.”<br />
