As an intern at EGI Capital, this is our first day to start to adventure. During the orientation, June and Charles kindly share their insights and expectation for Taiwan with us.

What is our core value in Taiwan? What are the advantages comparing with others in this global village? How can we make most of our talent and make Taiwan great at the same time?

Every one of us has different answers to these questions, which means that everyone has a unique perspective and potential to deal with a bunch of critical issues in Taiwan.

The key takeaway today is that people here not only work hard, but also smart, which President Su already mentioned before we came. One of my roommate is a dental student and this is what she shared with me.

People here treasure their personal time so much that they don’t want to spend extra time on their work at all. They work hard and smart, and they love every moment of it.

They also prioritize their time, eliminate energy consuming tasks, and strategically re-energize themselves through breaks.

Comparing what I usually do back in Taiwan, I was a little embarrassed about myself hehe.

Keep long story short, your desired output must match your input.

FYI

We have the obligation to share what we learn along the journey with you. Of course, these are only our personal experience and thoughts. They may have some flaws, but we definitely hope these articles could open up some serious discussions. We are willing to discuss more and accept feedbacks. Thank you for reading this and we will keep it up for this journey.
