I like to play tennis with one of my classmate. We usually talk about politics , FX, BOND stock & share etc. He was relating one of his experience talking to a very humble successful biz man which own a sushi restuarant.


This man came from a poor family & father passed away when they were young. He decided to quit his secondary school to work to lessen his mother hardship . He worked in Daimaru as non skill job. He humbly worked very hard with the right attitude for almost 8 yrs struggle. Finally a opportunity came. He Japanese boss asked him to go Japan to work in his Sushi restaurant. He told his mother about it & promised her that he will not let her down & will send money back.


When he was in Japan. He started from the very basic of just washing toilet , dishes ,etc before he is able to learn how to make sushi. It is only a few years later that his boss started to teach the skill. During the learn period, his boss would slapped him & colleague will scold him & make life a hell for him. He refused to give up & continued his hardship struggle.


He knew his continuous struggle was for a better future. Finally with the skill he learnt. He decided to go back to SG with his Japanese girlfriend (later married) Her father did not approve their relationship . He promised her father he would talk care of her in SG. He opened a restaurant & was later became successful. LKY & family is one of his customers & always has a private room for them. Today, he is very successful driving lamborghini but still with a humble attitude. The harder the struggle . The more glorious the trumph. Right success is belongs to humble person


It is sad most of our young generation do not have our old parent mindset of hardship & just do it attitude.

This is a song about stepping through life, finding answer in life. It really shows how most of us struggle to get to the top in our lives.
So life is always a struggle journey. Mistakes are always there. We just have to learn from them and survived the lowest point of our lives.

totally agree..... worst is a lot of the mindset that hardship is cannot go holiday, need to work , cant buy fav branded stuff.. thats hardship to a lot of them

I have been once to his restuarant for Afternoon lunch many year ago at Goodwood park. I remember it cost $150 for 2 person.

My wife has found a new friend who work in Hai Di Lao (海底捞火锅). My wife went to Bangkok together with her just last wk.
My wife told me her friend's "Tiger" mum are in control of their lives. They (A family of 5) live at HDB five rm flat. Parent & 2 of his siblings
squeeze & sleep in the Master rm while most of the time she (eldest age 24) sleep in the living area. The rest of the 3 room are rented out.


Her whole family members (except her father - construction worker) work in Hai Di Lao (海底捞火锅). Mother as a kitcher helper. 2 young sibilings
(secondary & ploy) work during school holiday as a parttimer. She works as a "entertainer" waitress which is a much better pay than a normal waitress
Her gross pay can be as high as $3k/mth. But it is hard work. She needs to sing , perform magic trick , play with children etc. I have been there once.
The food is nice but NOT CHEAP. Surprisely, quite a number of young Sporean like to eat there.

She said to my wife once she completed her degree. She would find a normal stable job & later move out to rent out a small unit by herself .She feels that as a grown up girl. She starts to feel inconvenient living in a "CRAMP" house.

Life is always a struggle. Struggle are required in order to surivive in life. Lives life with a positive attitude and never give up. One day you will trumph.
