I’m not a fan of people who sit around and slack. Moreso, I dislike people who talk about business this, idea that, but don’t actually take action on anything. Most of ALL, I can’t STAND people who make a big deal about concealing their ideas for fear of someone stealing their grand, amazing, [...]
I realized recently that the following tried and true quote is a principle to live by. :
“Focus on what you do best.”
Case in point. Megan Fox knows what she does best…
It simply leads to increased productivity, plus you can have others take care of the stuff you aren’t good at (which may in fact [...]
Taking action is so awesome.
Our mini-album release performance in February 2010.
In my last two posts, I wrote about taking the driver’s seat and grasping control of my career and artistic direction. It is has been an amazing ride in the recent four to six months for my bandmates and me (and it’s just starting [...]
Last month, I wrote a post on taking the driver’s seat and grasping control of my career and artistic direction. Well, sure enough, I did just that in the last thirty days and achieved some groundbreaking results.
Since leaving my previous agency last month, I started a pop trio called Cool Silly with two of my [...]
For the last two or so years, I have been signed to various entertainment agencies here in Asia. It’s been a very interesting ride and I have learned many things along the way. I have released an official Mandopop album (now available on iTunes), appeared in a handful of television shows, and done many radio [...]
I have a problem.
Yes I will admit it. Perhaps you share the same problem…
What is my problem?
Committing to the end.
Now I am referring specifically to ambitions and ventures in life. In the past few years, I have created or delved in several projects, including the following:
Talkmatic.com – I started a podcast website with episodes [...]
One of my favorite posters/quotes of all time:
I prefer success only when it is following several failed attempts.
Why?
Like cold Gatorade after a game of basketball. Success tastes that much sweeter, because you worked your tail off and overcame failure to reach the final milestone.
Become a pro. You have a much better chance at sustaining that [...]
Ever find life to be boring?
Ever ponder your fulfillment in career and life goals?
Watch this video… and life won’t be so boring and unfulfilled anymore…(I promise):
A little background:
Randy Pausch (Oct. 23, 1960 – July 25, 2008) was a professor at Carnegie Mellon University. The school recently began a “Last Lecture” series, in which CMU professors [...]
Everyone (literally) likes a good listener.
It’s rare to come across something everyone agrees with… I’m damn sure this statement is true, no? (Goes hand-in-hand with my previous post about how most people care most about themselves)
This statement is key to
making new friends,
upping your reputation,
landing a date,
being a good friend, etc… the list goes on.
Agreed?
My buddy Eric posted a quote last week on geekwhat that I really dug A LOT:
“An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made, in a very narrow field.”–Niels Bohr (1885-1962)
Yep, Bohr as in the bohr model. This quote reminds me of my earlier days at Cisco. I [...]
