I love this quote by Tony Robbins:
Most people are direct reflections of their peer group,
Just another great quote I found on twitter, nice (yes, I keep showing people why I love twitter! just keeps inspiring me)! But yes, we become who we surround ourselves with…..what we hear each day, the news we listen to, [...]
I have always loved the hustle. That’s what attracted me to Wall Street, to New York. To China. to wholesale markets. Life is going faster then ever….I’m running between 4 or 5 countries in a couple months. Have alliances, offices throughout China (shanghai, fujian, shenzhen), Philippines, USA. I’m getting phone calls from India, speaking bad [...]
Paul Chong from a wufantuan startup met up with me tonight and mentioned this social media posting in Phuket, Thailand!
People have been noticing when I stop twittering! Awesome, social media is all about being a LIVE PERSON. A living, breathing human being. Not some RSS feed machine. And even if a [...]
Today spent some time with andy blahnik in hong kong to see the new movie inception. I had no idea what the movie was about going in, but man i is highly recommend you see it if you like action with a mix of abstract multi-thread stories simultaneously happening.

As I have said, I don’t believe in people FAILING, I think its part of growing, gaining experience, and finding what we are really meant to be and do with our lives. Losing something might be positive, as they say in China.
Many people only think “small businesses” or startups fail. But while working in Deutsche [...]
Keep that in mind, everyone wants to GET PAID, but its also about growing, learning, and experiencing. So I titled this after a great quote from Jim Rohn :
Its not what we are getting, its what we are becoming – Jim Rohn

What shapes us as individuals? Sure, I’ve read books that we are products of our environment but its what we do each and every day OURSELVES that creates who we are too.
In today’s digital world, one thing most of us do each day is LOGIN online, to our computers, our emails, etc.
These are things [...]
Its true, many of us are SPOILED with too much time, too many resources, and it makes us LAZY. It makes us INEFFICIENT. We take it for granted, we don’t utilize all that we have around us……

my buddy James Song thought of me when he got this email and passed it along – I definitely think it fits my current lifestyle and objectives these days. Its about just OWNING what we really need in life. Not to be attached to personal goods.
I took a quick snapshot of me right now, I’m [...]
Arrived in Manila late last night (no typhoon while I was flying, so I’m here safe!) just 1 hour delay. Each time I’ve been coming here (3rd time this year) I’m always maxing out the allowed “free” amount of luggage on the plane (15 kilos). I really feel like a Filipino when I’m [...]
This is a great poem passed down to me. Why does being a grown up adult have to make you a “fuddy duddy” boring person?
Hands on a window pane
Watching some children laugh and play
They’re running in circles
With candy canes and French braids
Inspired to question
What makes us grown-ups anyway?
Let’s search for the moment
When youth [...]

@rochorbeancurd – Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action

Hope this is an eye opener for some of us…..read it then I’ll put in my 2 cents…..
