Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

- Robert Frost

I still wonder why billing and payments still take so long for hospitals here in the Philippines, even the most advanced ones.

For all the advancement in medical technologies, how I wish the administrative systems also kept up!

That ‘70s Show first aired in 1998.

“That Y2k Show” should air in about 6 years from now.

In a society that loves to chase every novel way to success, wealth, and fame, blessed is the man who quietly treads the beaten Path to joy, and treads it with diligence, thoughtfulness, and care.

Obscurity is his friend.
Solitude is his strength.
Virtue is his treasure.

[Eric Wong @iamericwong]

The insecure judge themselves based on their worst day, and judge others based on their best.

The proud do the opposite.

The humble do neither, and they are better for it.

So so so heartbreaking.

My thoughts on the horrifying revelations today about the SBC Executive Committee.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

There's no shame in not knowing things! The only shame is to pretend that we know everything. 🧠

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

When groups defer to the most assertive person in the room, they reward confidence over competence.

The danger of speaking with conviction is that it can stifle critical thinking and silence dissent.

We learn more from people who explore ideas than those who attack and defend.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

If you focus on the failures, you will continue to suffer.

If you focus on the lessons, you will continue to grow. 🧠

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

If you cannot be corrected without being offended, then you’ll never truly grow in life. 🧠

[Jason Fried @jasonfried]

The problem with rigidity is that it comes for free. It just happens. Flexibility always takes work.

[Eric Wong @iamericwong]

Keep planting those seeds. Keep watering them.

Keep showing up even when the results aren’t showing up yet.

Grateful to be working alongside @CarlaMumar @davidbonifacio @BanjoCastillo @jcisemer and so many others on this journey.

[Eric Wong @iamericwong]

Recently wrote about why we started Workbase. We have such a long way to go but we’re so excited for the future ahead.

False dichotomy is the friend of shallow thinking and hasty conclusions. #think

[Eric Wong @iamericwong]

Say that again?

[Eric Wong @iamericwong]

Go out there. Stick your neck out. Make mistakes.

Learn. Build. Venture.

[Eric Wong @iamericwong]

This is why I really find it strange how so many are eager to run to an “expert, “guru”, “coach” who isn’t battle-tested.

Even stranger are those who liberally call themselves one without the battle scars to prove it.

[Eric Wong @iamericwong]

I always have a takeaway after each call with @BanjoCastillo, a huge part of it is he can back his insights with actual experience.

[Mark Hamill @MarkHamill]

If this isn’t a sure sign of the Apocalypse, I don’t know what is.
