‘If you put yourself in a box, you are in that box.’
On the 30 March, Christy Chen Moeller, Founder and Managing Director of CBTravel & Event, shared her path and journey on living balance and the successful professional life with the IPWS community.
There are a lot of interpretation on this topic. As a mother and female entrepreneur, Christy inspired the audience to discover their own thoughts, interpretation, balance and successful professional life through her own story.
Event Takeaways
1. Life is an adventure, You need to try and find your own way.
Christy moved to Denmark in her early 20s, working in Denmark faces many difficulties and challenges. She tried a lot to work in Denmark and start her own business. To maintain her professional life and private life, she made the most difficult challenging decision to travel between Denmark and China for nearly 12 years. And she’s now sharing her journey and path, It’s something she’d never have imagined at 21.
Everything lies in your mind, keep your mind calm and stable, that’s the most important thing that we can do in facing any kind of external changes.
2. Cultivate self value.
It’s quite important, as a woman usually supports others in family or in the company or the society. Especially in Asia , women usually don’t have a sense of the value. It seems like you are measured by score, family, by everything, you have to do something, you have to achieve something.
So we need to be aware of even if you are doing nothing, you are a housewife, you still have value. It’s important to live your life, to think about the value of your life .
3. Don’t convince yourself to be the supporting role for anyone.
What actually matters even for your kids is that you are a successful role model. The interpretation about the success are very different. Like what kind of model would you be for kids, even you would be more present.
Sometimes you have to make some tough decisions, you need to think about how you feel about yourself, and what you will get as a result, will it make you successful and happy.
