    I was a first-time father and an executive. It was a few nights before my son turned three months old. Because of my upbringing, I always wanted to have a different father-and-son relationship. And then, my wife and I heard a scream in our bedroom. I ran to our room:

    I held up my son. Foam started coming out from his mouth. He was fighting for oxygen. His body colour changed to blue-ish purple. His limbs became motionless. He looked past me and closesd his eyes. Many thoughts crossed my mind, one of them was, "I couldn't save my own son."...

  • I don't know what I did that saved my son that night. After he suffocated in my arms for five minutes, I experienced waves of negative emotions. I felt like I failed. Every day, I asked myself the same existiential question but I did not know how to answer it.

     

    What is my purpose?

     

    There was a void in me that I couldn't shake off. The life that I thought I knew. It came crushing down. I felt stuck.

  • After languishing for half a year, I remember saying to myself

    one day, "I should just follow my heart."

  • I locked myself in my room and wrote about what happened.

     

    Following my heart and clarity shall come later on was my hope.

     

    I started to write and reflect daily on my negative thoughts.

     

    Five years later and after many failed experiments, I became an author, a global speaker, a podcast host, and a communit builder.

  • If you ever feel stuck like I did, you are not alone. It just means that you've outgrown the known path.

    Here are 3 things that helped me reinvent my career, relationships and life. I hope they can be the guiding light for you too.

    1. Focus on your Passion. Do what you love and good at.

    2. Focus on becoming 1% Better each day.

    3. Show up and Help others.

    This is your

    Transformative Purpose
