I am building in public. In 2019, I left my comfy corporate life and began my career as a solopreneur. Yes. I am 20 years late and I am that odd old guy, sitting in the front of the lecture hall, trying to keep up with those zealous and youthful undergraduates. Content: I post everyday…

Realization from Scaling Up, the 📚

Posted on January 9, 2021

I finished the Scaling Up book. It was very underwhelming. I figured out why. I was lucky I experienced most of what the book was explaining at Apple and Nike. I disliked many of the “scaled up” things, and so as I read through the Scaling Up book I could not stop thinking, “it takes…

Super Heroes 🦹🏻

Posted on January 3, 2021January 3, 2021

“Who is your super hero?” I used to ask this as an interview question. I liked it because it was fun and telling. I am 45 and I am to have some fun answering this question again. Muse like Austin Kleon and master the skill to be in awe with life’s most mundane things. See…

A Week To Remember.

Posted on November 28, 2020

Nov 21st to 27th, 2020. Winter Fair, where 400+ people showed up. I was in charge of pasta. Made two sauces, and they tasted good. I got to use the full size kitchen at the school. Everything was so much hotter! I felt useful. The school is coming alone, albeit all the challenges, albeit the…

How did I do? What did I learn?

Posted on November 26, 2020

It has been a while since I did a presentation. I was rusty. A few things I observed: I did not become aware during the presentation. This has been a goal of mine – to be more aware throughout my day. I failed at this. As I was unaware most of the time, I rushed…

Presenting @ HKU

Posted on November 25, 2020

This is the second presentation I will have since I left Apple. The first one was with WEAVE, which really didn’t do anything for me, except building a connection with Daniel. This one is different.

🤫 to Asking Useful Questions

Posted on August 6, 2020

Which leads to better communication? Hacking our listening or questioning skills? The latter. Wait, what? “Creativity is problem formulation.” Murray Gell-Mann. Let’s think about it. Useful questions come from clear listening, empathy, the alchemy of analysing and intuiting, self control, patience, curiosity … Practice asking questions is a ultimate compound exercise. It trains a bunch…

Investigating the “woo-woo” in Chinese and English

Posted on August 2, 2020August 2, 2020

I love having a blog that I don’t know if anyone reads, because I can just write freely, but still be slightly restrained by an imaginary audience. The North Stars of this Post 1.
