EP.25 Dr. Gordon Chiu: Why You Need To Be Crazy Sometimes

Dr. Gordon Chiu joins with Aaron to talk about we sometimes need to be a little crazy and drop our ego to find happiness in life. Dr. Gordon Chiu's daughters changed his life - and motivated the noted inventor and researcher to turn from solving complex technical and scientific challenges to analyzing those elements of daily life which deliver true happiness.

In 2017, Gordon made a conscious decision to refocus his priorities. While his academics, resumé and accomplishments were pretty, his personal obituary (what he wanted his children to remember him by) was not where he wanted it to be.

Gordon is a scientist and an inventor. He is also an educator, entrepreneur, speaker, lecturer, husband and father. He is a former Research Scientist at Pfizer and Merck, later invented a series of patents and collaborated with world-renowned institutions and universities in many countries.

He is a 2x TEDx speaker most known for highlighting realization around what it takes for “Inventing Happiness”.
