Darren Yaw Phnom Penh Webinar Highlights

The Darren Yaw Phnom Penh webinar began with stories of his childhood hustle, demonstrating his early interest in business. He shared an inspirational story of when he was only seven years old living at home in Malaysia with no air-conditioning. He used to spot people all around the neighbourhood trying to cool themselves off. He thought to himself maybe he could sell them soft drinks, so he went around to a few small gas stations around and asked the owners if he can help them deliver soft drinks around his neighbourhood. Soon Darren Yaw was delivering soft drinks on his bicycle to everyone in his neighbourhood. In time he started delivering other necessities as well, such as milk and bread. He said that’s when he first felt the thrill of running your own business. Ever since then he was hooked on generating his own income.

Skip to Darren Yaw in Singapore as an older aspiring entrepreneur, where he told the story of how he started up with no capital. All he had was his hunger to hustle and his courage to take risks and enter new ventures. He recalled that he had to work with people who didn’t necessarily share the same life principles or views, and worked on jobs and tasks that didn’t fit with his passion and dreams. But he learned to see these as stepping stones, not obstacles. “It’s not about doing what you love, it’s about doing whatever it takes until you reach a point where you can finally start doing what you love,” he said.

The Darren Yaw Phnom Penh webinar then shifted the student’s perspective into understanding how we all have problems but that shouldn’t be an obstacle. “Everyone has problems! You’ve had problems all your life. It’s about time you realise problems are never going to go away. It’s something to simply live with, and to not let it stop you from chasing your goals. The world doesn’t belong to the pessimist!” he exclaimed.
He also discussed how important networking and constantly learning new skills to level up is essential to his success. He mentioned some of his tips on how every individual can gain the right skills in order to start taking control of their financial future by creating different streams of income.

Darren Yaw’s Phnom Penh webinar also highlighted the best ways to get a headstart is to start investing as early as possible. Investing early is one of the main keys in all investments, with the ultimate goal of generating income without having to rely on employment.

How Darren Yaw’s Wife Judie Inspired Him to Greater Heights

The Darren Yaw Phnom Penh webinar then proceeded to show that his wife Judie has been a major inspiration. He informed the students of his favourite piece of advice of hers. She once told him: “Surround yourself with people better than you, hire associates whose behaviour, skill and attitude is better than yours and you’ll level up in that direction.” He claimed that this one advice from her was a turning point in his life.

The Darren Yaw Phnom Penh webinar continued with him explaining that once he started applying it, he noticed a major change in himself. When he started associating himself with people who inspired him to be better and do better, his mindset changed for the better and expanded to new horizons. This pushed him and his work and business to new heights. “Find someone like my wife Judie Yaw who will push you, inspire you and will back you up no matter what. I guarantee you, your life will dramatically improve.”

Darren Yaw Phnom Penh Webinar Q&A Session Highlights

Darren spoke about how he enjoyed spending his spare time reading books about investments, studying and comparing different strategies. “My favourite activity was to study other people’s failures. It helped me know what exactly to avoid!” he said. “Learning from other people’s mistakes is essential. People usually underestimate how much they can learn from others,” Darren added.

He also noted how from his experience of meeting a number of different individuals all around the world, the one aspect he noticed that separates successful people from unsuccessful ones is that the truly successful ones say no to almost everything! “That’s because they are focused on their own personal journey. They don’t welcome distractions. They critically analyse each opportunity before investing. Successful people take chances but only smart studied chances. They are driven by thoughts not their personal emotions or people’s opinions,” he concluded.
