experience Sharing of the day

16 Sep

In which my dad engages me in a conversation about dreams vs reality and the investment banking industry:

Dad: You know, I really don’t think you’re going to be able to make that two million you want to have before you get married if you stick to PR agencies.

Me: But dad, I’m pretty good at doing what I do.

Dad: You know the Char Kway Teow seller around the corner? HE is really good at what HE does too (*makes stir frying gestures to demonstrate*) How much money do you think he makes? His Kway Teow is damned good!

Me: …

Dad: The point is, there’s a difference between doing the thing right… and doing the right thing.
