Find me on:

I did a talk the other day, and a young girl asked me how it feels to be an entrepreneur and what do I learn from it. I know why I ended up as one, but to express how it feels to be one is not quite as simple. Try asking yourself this: how does it feel to, say, be a lawyer, an analyst, a banker, or a CEO? I hope your answer is not just "It's alright" or "It's great and fun!".  

“Don’t forget to be kind”. What exactly do I mean by that? Helping someone who is struggling in a wheelchair? Donating money to charity? Giving up your seat to a pregnant woman? All of these are acts of kindness that we have the moral duty/sense to carry out because they are more explicit situations that call for it.

Being an employee, employer, and entrepreneur I realized the role that has helped me in my career is that of a sportswoman. I run, do road biking, practice yoga, and climb mountains when senselessly inspired by adventure and spontaneity.

Cheryl May Ng loves meeting entrepreneurs and business owners to inspire and help, so after quitting her job in search of refreshing, she ended up founding a company that has now been going strong for over three years.

I chose not to drive my car this week and decided to opt for the train and bus instead. The great thing about that decision to break away from the norm and routine? I learned a few new things, but the biggest lesson of the day was the realisation that it is important to break your daily routine once in a while because there is a lot to be gained.
