Welcome to Woman Leadership show. I'm Janet Aisyah and in this episode, I will be sharing with you it is not the Degree but is the Better you.
Show Notes
In my earlier episode I shared about my depression when I was in JC, I went to the school because of my good friend from Secondary school. However, she started to hang out with our new friend and I felt neglected.
My results from straight As in the beginning of the year became moderate pass at the end of year 1. I did not want to stay another year so I continue year 2 but I struggled badly in catching up. I did not do well in JC results and could not go to local university.
Without guidance, I continued to take part time diploma and later on part time degree course. I continued to struggle in 10 years of my early career until I had a breakthrough in my mindset to accelerate my income and career.
I managed to catch up faster than my peers who had degree or masters degree and have my financial independence.
Key Takeaways
- I started late but I caught up later on by extra hardwork and having the right mindset to achieve what I want
- It can be demoralizing in the beginning when my peers were doing better than me with starting salary but is a marathon. We never know till 20 years later to see the results.
- Degree is only a tool but is our mindset and attitude that makes the difference. If you focus on improving yourself and surround yourself with positive people who want you to succeed and able to support you to next level.
- I hope that through my sharing, it draws inspiration and personal reflection for you. I believe every woman can be a leader in your own way.
