28/11/16 :- You are never ready for that heartbreak date... 你永遠不會為那突然的心碎紀念日做好準備。。。 I am the old fashion man who is still used to having a physical organizer to mark all my dates, appointments and important stuff down. Heard from a speaker some time ago, "We marked all sort of dates on our organizer, but we can never predict that one day we would be marking down the death anniversary of someone we love." It pierces right through my heart. To make things worse, I was actually doing my 10km run in the stadium on that day. Tears were welling up in my eyes yet I have to force myself to finish the run. Why do I go back to our old house every year on this date? Though I know no matter how many years I go back, or what I do, it would never bring Grandma back to life; I cannot allow myself to miss this date. I know I can never repay the woman I love most in my life. Thus, I'm putting in double or even triple times more effort in building my business now to bring ...

22/11/16 :- 離家，是為了回家。。。 We left home seeking to return one day… 今天聽了夥伴的夢想板，感觸良多。 加上回想起上個星期六，帶了母親一同去參加女神，董宥均的地方研討會，眼淚不禁在眼眶打滾。 当下，就想到這句話，“離家，是為了回家。。。” 有多少親人朋友從馬來西亞來到新加坡工作，為的就是能賺多一點錢拿回家讓家人過好日子。 但是，甚麼是好日子？錢，要賺多少才夠？ 之前就看了一份報導，如果說你每三個月回家一次，假設你父母還有三十年與你一同共度，是否發現你只能多見他們120？ 那么，在假設每一次回家三天，其實你剩下與他們相處的日子只剩360天，比一年還少！ 我們很多人都很安逸，尤其是居住在新加坡的我們。 大多數人，從沒想過，有一天你的老闆可以毫無理由叫你馬上收拾走人。 試想，頓時你會變成怎麼樣？ 是否，已經做好準備，有了備胎？ 就算有的話，是否足夠？ 沒有人想要失敗，但是卻有很多人不願付出努力去爭取自己想要的。 沒有一件事是容易的，但是你真的要沒有嗎？ 如果，現在放棄了與家人的相處是為了將來所有的時間都能陪他們，你是否願意？ 但是，以這些放棄的時間來打工，加班，光做一些沒有產值的事，到頭來很抱歉，你或許與家人的時間已到此為止。 當你父母離開後，若你也有自己的家庭，依然重複你這幾年在做的事，你只會得到同樣的結果。 每天都走同樣的路，永遠不能帶你到不同的地方。 在你離開的時候，你的孩子也即將重複你的一生。。。 今天的你，是否在為將來奮鬥，所做的一切是否能為你帶來財富，時間自由，健康的體魄來陪伴你的家人？ 若還沒有，是時候好好深思這問題了。。。 我感恩自己已經做好準備並為母親與我未來的小家庭努力奮鬥。 家族翻身從小小的我開始。。。 Heard our partner shared her dream board today, emotions filled my heart. To add on, I have just brought my Mum along to attend my goddess, Stacy Tung's local seminar over the weekends, tears welled up i...

Why did I started the Project 1983 Eagle Ivan project (IG : #project1983eagleivan)? Initially, it was purely a project inspired by a Taiwan friend. Her aim was to have 100 cups of coffee with 100 strangers. I tweeted my project a little by aiming for 83 cups of coffee with individual friends, both old and new. It was started without giving much thought to it and not knowing what to expect. I was not someone who was born sociable. In fact, I was even mild autistic when I was in Primary School. My teachers had a hard time making me open up. Thus, it was indeed a HUGE challenge for myself to do this project. However, as time goes by, more people got to know of my project and saw the photos I've posted on IG and Facebook, I received volunteers' requests. In the beginning, I was finding people to have coffee with. Ended up, I have more than I expect on the list. What have I gained or learnt from this experience? We humans are in fact, pretty lonely. Unless you...
