People do things for the craziest of reasons. But it makes
perfect sense to them. When someone, anyone, has found a
“Purpose behind the Purpose”, that person will meet with
success uncommon to others because of the “fire in the belly”.
In an “edutainment” style, Dr Goh will seek to share in a
light-hearted fashion on serious stuff like why few people enjoy
success while the majority only knows mediocrity. He will also
impart his version of “Ten Tips How To Build Tenacity”, and to
keep on keeping on! Indeed, obstacles are for overcoming and
“when the going gets tough, the tough gets going”.
