Oh my, what’s becoming to this blog? First, sex talks and now F words?
Now, before you close this window in disgust, let me assure you that this blog is totally family friendly!
“F Words to Live By” is just a shorthand title for another talk I attended organized by Touch Community Services. The official title is “Family Matters: The influence of the family in career decision-making”. The speaker was Daniel Goh who is a lawyer by profession running his own mid-sized law practice. He was a short and sweet speaker, packing lots of useful tips and stories in the 40-min talk. Definitely can tell from his presentation style how he can juggle his career and family so well!

Some useful pointers:
- Live a FULLER life. Even if you are not married or do not have kids, do not just focus on your career. Engage in your interests, support causes, etc.
- Be very FOCUSED, give yourself a task to complete within a set time and do all you can to stop any distractions
- Be FAMILIAR with a set routine to get things done, yet be FLEXIBLE
- Be highly FAVORED and win hearts by being sincere. Sometimes it’s not about who you are, but who you know!
- But dun be a FAKE
- Be highly FANCIED to do the job by being prepared and confident
- Be physically & mentally FIT because life is about survival of the FITTEST
- FAMILY matters so be FAMILY-ORIENTED! In a clash of commitments, choose to let FAMILY come first
- Be FINANCIALLY sound, live below your means
- Be FORGIVING of others and yourself especially when wrong judgment calls are made
- Have FUN in everything you do, once you have decided you want to do it
- FAITH in God sustains me through life. Without Him, there's no Em
- FORGO some things. Sometimes you just got to take some time to ask yourself what are the most important things to life? And then let go of all the less important stuff
- FORCEFULNESS having drive and passion in life
