Don’t just teach. Ask questions. That will get them to think, say the wrong things and learn to reflect. Get them to engage their mind, and not their ear.

Things will take longer than you think. Don’t tell yourself all you need is 3 months. It probably takes 6 to a year.

Starting a oem water dispenser business soon. But it’s crazy that to sell you would need a safety mark which cost you $5k USD for lab test. And there is no guarantee you would get it. If it’s fail you would send for re test and that would cost another $5k.

The reason why wealth inequality in Singapore is so bad is because the rich compound with freehold assets, while the poor is left with decaying leases.

@benjihyam Hype = mass market awareness. Without hype it would be too costly to market and educate the masses. The real test comes after the hype and whether the product provides real utility. But that doesn’t mean hype is bad. It proves a mass market to test its utility.

@coffeebreak_YT You make it

@Jack_Raines Love your satire. Legend in its own right.

Effective SEO can be confused with doing nothing.

If it doesn’t feel right, it is probably not right.

For you.

It’s not what they say, but what they don’t say that matters.

You didn’t spend x on marketing, you invested x on marketing. Big difference.

Stop thinking when you have Amazon out your thinking. Action provides information. Information provides clarity. Act.

[Bowen Khong @bowenkhong]

instead try 'since I last sent you the proposal, i've been studying your issue and spoken to some other experts, here are some of the findings...'

this will more likely get you a response than just i'd like to follow up.

[Bowen Khong @bowenkhong]

if you act like a salesperson, you will be treated like one.
avoid word like 'i'd like to follow up,' chances they have seen your email but either they are uninterested or they can't decided now.

There are so many opinion on quality vs quantity. As content creation starter, I'd focus more on quantity so to get into momentum. Repetition plus revision help me improve my craft than trying to mastering one perfect piece which often leads to procrastination.

Write big ideas with simple words, not big words with simple ideas. Impress your audience with the clarity of your idea.

First, you are paid by what you do ($0-5k/M).
Then you are paid by how you think ($5K-30K/M.
Then you are paid by who you are ($30K-100K+/M.
