Ted’s Quote 25

Every writer starts from zero, they start from scratch.

One word, one sentence, one paragraph, one page, one chapter, one book, you’re always back to square one.

If you feel you barely scratch the surface every time you write a post, welcome to the world of writing. Join the club! Time to start from the ground up again… Ted Tsai

Ted’s Quote 24

A busy life, a quiet life, a complicated life or a simple life?

Whatever life we choose, remember, it’s a life we LEAD, not a life we follow. Ultimately, we’re responsible for it… Ted Tsai

Ted’s Quote 23

There’s no magic bullet when it comes to passion. It’s something you cultivate and create.

In the process, a surefire way to know if you’re passionate about something is by asking yourself these two questions:

  1. Am I willing to do it for free?
  2. Am I willing to do it alone?

Ted Tsai

Ted’s Quote 22

Free also means Without. Therefore, “Freedom of Speech” can be defined as Silence (or Shut Up).

Without prejudice, I’d like those negative people, harsh critics or extremists to exercise their rights this way sometimes… 👄📩 Ted Tsai

Ted’s Quote 21

The fact is we human beings are biased. We all take sides.

How do I know for sure? The answer lies in the heart!

Where is the heart located in the chest? It’s not exactly in the centre, is it?!

Our challenge is to draw a fine line between preference and prejudice. The preference side is OK, the prejudice side is not… Ted Tsai

Ted’s Quote 20

They say it’s all in your head. But to be more precise, let’s say it’s all in your attention.

Attention is like money, a valuable commodity and should be treated like one of our most important assets.

People, things, events, time, whatever you’re paying attention to, are you paying for what it’s worth, proportionally and appropriately?  

Your attention, for better, not worse, invest wisely… Ted Tsai

Ted’s Quote 18

Let’s set the record straight and do a bit stocktaking.

All the goodies we want out of life – health, wealth, success, love, happiness etc, need look no further than the too hard basket… Ted Tsai

Ted’s Quote 16

True, way too many things are beyond my control.

Interestingly, when I used my sense of humour to deal with most problems in life, that’s also when I realized not every problem was worth resolving… Ted Tsai
