Feeling lost in life as we head into the New Year? Listen to this collection of memorable quotes, lessons, warnings & life advice (between the late 1990s - 2010) from the late Lee Kuan Yew regarding careers, life purpose, relationships, physical & mental health and bilingualism (primarily geared towards young people, especially Singaporeans). He covers his thoughts on what he would do if he was a young person again - like starting a company, moving overseas to China (or another country), becoming fluent in another language, etc. Lee Kuan Yew books/memoirs I mention in this video: LKY's View of the World: (Hard Cover) From Third World to First: The Singapore Story: Hard Truths: LKY's Bilingual Journey: Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro (ft.
