In 2015 and 2016, I finished roughly 25 books each, and this year I am on my 22nd book. Which is pretty awesome for me, given I read less than 5 books in 2014. So how did I manage to do it? My friends think I am book-worm. May be ;). Here are the few things I…

In 1908, at a small art school on New York’s West 57th Street, a young man pleaded his classmate to pose for a portrait. She would have to skip a class to pose for him, but after enough begging, 20-year-old Georgia O’Keeffe reluctantly agreed.

Hi Christopher! This piece is really inspiring. Few months ago, when I was just starting on Medium, I wrote a piece. Not for the purpose of gaining followers, but sharing my story. For several months, I have been loathing about the pain I’m feeling about not having friends. After sharing my story, I realized that the pain is self-inflicted and…

In the 5 years that I have been following all these self help gurus and paying some of them to guide me, I have not achieved much. As soon as I realized that they are just like you and I, I just go on my own way and now I know for sure that I am better off without these people. Thank you for the honesty!
日前為一家中國香港公司的中高層在深圳進行領袖培訓，為他們找出公司的獨特定位。他們的業務主要市場在美國，但最近剛發展國內市場。會上用了我的mindPower Innovation遊戲進行分組比賽。其中一組的銷售代表竟然說為了滿足國內客戶對低價格的要求，建議降低產品的標準，將貨就價。他說出來全場嘩然，這反映出這位中高層視野狹窄。每個品牌都有自己的獨特成功因素，如果勉強為了迎合市場，只會成為別人的跟屁蟲。假如這個品牌真的降低產品標準和內地競爭對手比併，只會陷入價格戰，絶對不會成功。

Did any of you ever believe there was a monster under your bed when you were little? Maybe the boogyman in the closet? When I was younger I watched way too many scary movies. I have no idea what my fascination was with them, but once I became a little older I swore them off forever. I had lost way…

Recently I feel a little inundated with sociopolitical “sound.” It’s mentally, emotionally and physically exhausting. Every day there is some new tweet, another hurricane, another sexual predator exposed. Each new event demands some sort of responsible, even if it’s just some emotional burden.

I’m not sure that hard work pays off in the way we have been taught to think that it does. If you believe that hard work is the way to success, you are virtually guaranteed to get more hard work to fill your life with.

You can be whoever you want. The desires you have are also part of who you are. If those passions and thoughts are something that you want, as opposed to what other people want for you, I don’t see any reason why you can’t make those things happen and be fulfilled when you make the changes in your life that meet those desires.
Hi Emily,
What a beautiful reminder on our very reason to write. It is easy to get frustrated when you see your story not receiving attention the way you want it to be. I liked the part when you reminded us about zero followers when you are writing just for yourself. If we always wait for adulation, we become people pleasers and we will always come up short. Thanks for sharing this

Employers are frequent culprits of running down employee’s self-worth but even friends and relatives do it often out of jealousy.
