For me, being passionate about what we do provides the energy to work towards our goals and achieve our dreams. Passion fosters creativity, enabling us to develop better ideas and solutions, which in turn help solve problems. It encourages us to focus on tasks and keep going without feeling overwhelmed. Passion also drives continuous learning of new technologies and services that can simplify or better manage tasks. Additionally, it promotes collaboration, as it encourages us to work with others and share ideas, leading to a more collaborative workplace.

We are always facing many challenges at work, some of them are easy, some of them are difficult. The difficult challenge requires us putting more energy and effort in many aspects. We need to ask for cooperation from different teams in different functions, various locations and even different businesses. We need to break a complex challenge into small cases and solve the issue, one by one and step by step. We need to adjust the plans from time to time, find the most important and urgent task, leading the way to the ultimate target. We need to motivate the whole team especially in most difficult situations. We need to be patient, be diligent, be resourceful, be positive and stick to the true value. With all these small pieces done, everyone will definitely grow to a new level.
