💡 If you could invest in one thing for your best possible future self, what would it be? Health? Wealth? Or something else?
In our recent pre-depareture wellness talk with the bright scholars of Yayasan Khazanah, our clinical psychologist / HRD-C Accredited trainer, Gary Yap explored this question together. The session, titled “Building Self-Resilience in Mental Wellness”, touched on:
- Recognizing stress as a fire (we can use it to cook wonderful meal, but it can also burn down a house)
- Relationship between Stress and Happiness in Life
- STRESS Practical tools for daily life and management.
One timeless lesson Gary shared with scholars comes from the Harvard 85-year happiness study:
"The most consistent factor for a healthier and happier life is not money or fame, but the quality of our relationships and social support."
In a world that often pushes us to “achieve more,” it’s worth remembering that building and nurturing meaningful connections may be the greatest investment we can make, for both resilience and long-term happiness.
To the scholars, thank you for your energy, questions, and participations during the session. Wish you a safe departure and meaningful learning journey ahead!
Once again big thank you to Yayasan Khazanah for the kind invitation.
