After 'surviving' from the doomsday, I attended the event mentioned on 22nd and 23rd December. It was one of the best seminars that I had attended so far as all the guest speakers were all enthusiastic and inspiring.
To most of the people, seminars are considered boring events but that is not the case in Amway Moving Up Seminar. From a youth to a midget, from a businessman to a housewife, people from all walks of life had shared their backgrounds and how they succeeded in Amway business. There is no better motivation than real-life experiences.
To summarise the two-day event, I will briefly state each speaker's background and the main points of what they had shared:

- Gave up the opportunity to study overseas

4. Peter Lee (Crown Ambassador, 60, Owner of 13 Types of Businesses)

6. Grace Wong (Diamond, 45, School Teacher)

- The ones who changed their concept thinking faster has become billionaires, e.g. Steve Jobs, Li Ka-Shing, Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey etc
