I get so many questions about my story, how I build my business and how I live my life. Here’s the last episode of the Natural hustle, it’s ten minutes long and it covers A LOT!! 😱 I talk about everything:
What is means to be a young boss, how we work as a team at @surfaceapparel , what kind of culture I try to establish in the company and the values I want to share through our brand. I also talk about how I started FB and Instagram, and you can see how we turned an ice cream shop in Kaohsiung to our first SurfAce shop!🍦👙

"อีกห้าปี มันจะต่างจากตอนนี้มากเลย"
เมื่อวานบอกคนใกล้ตัวไปแบบนั้น, ห้าปีเป็นช่วงเวลาสั้นๆ เท่านั้น แป๊บเดียวก็ผ่านไปแล้ว แต่ถ้าเทียบกับเวลาในชีวิต หากใครอยู่ถึง 80 ปี ห้าปีก็จะเท่ากับหนึ่งในสิบหกของชีวิตเขา ถ้าใครมีอายุขัย 60 ปี ห้าปีก็จะเท่ากับหนึ่งในสิบสองของชีวิต
แปลว่าเราจะมี "ห้าปี" ได้ไม่เกินยี่สิบครั้ง
...Continue Reading" In five years, it will be very different from now
Yesterday, I told someone close to me that, five years is a short time. It will pass. But compared to the time in life. If anyone lives 80 years, five years, it will be equal to one of his sixteen of his life if anyone has age. 60 years and five years is equal to one of the twelve of life.
It means we can have "five years" no more than twenty times.
But the upcoming " five years " looks like five years that should be full of changes in each " five years " is different and unequal.
The last "five years" was 35-40 years. It was a time to see the change in the lives of the same generation. Think for yourself that it was the time when life started walking down from the top. We have passed the top of life. (that's 31-35 ), and in this moment, our lives slowly recession, both body, creativity, and power that we want to do things, so it's a time when people in the same age, confused and change in life.
Meanwhile, the age of 35-40 years old is a time of " starting over " like we are entering a " new part " of life. Some people may feel like starting over with something.
So I found a death from one to be reborn. It's a lot of people.
Died from being an office worker, born, being a business owner, dead from being a subordinate, being a responsible boss, died from being a nonsense, born, a father who needs to take care of the child.
If you notice well, you will find that we change the status from those who depend on other people to be independent (independent) and going back to become someone who let others.
Our new role. Besides relying on ourselves, we are also responsible for others.
Like a tree that is old enough and moving closer to death.
Some people enjoy new roles. Some people are tired of obstacles. Some people are tired of change. This is a very mischievous time.
Because even if we don't want to change, we will be forced to change at work. We may not be able to pay "adults" anymore. My boyfriend's family may rush to get married and want to get married and need to spend money to build a house or buy a house including sickness. For parents who have arrived at the age of hospital. There are many new changes that happen outside of plans.
35-40 years is very different than 31-35 years. If you watch it with time frame, it's not far away.
...
41-45 years, the body should be more broken. We should step into the disease in our body. It's not strange if some friends leave during this time or someone may encounter a disease that changed his life.
Inner soul should be more peace and boredom. This should bring change in terms of life, goals and meaning of living.
Some mental conditions may be more stressed with new burden to take care of and never used to the company that founded children, including parents with some people - change of work and family may be a new time to deal with.
All we have now. Nothing guarantees that we will stay the same when we are 45 years old. Our ability with the world. The work that we do. Parents, friends who may disband may disband because life changes including The baby that will slowly change, which will hit our lives too.
It's a " five year " that connects with people. We depend on them. We depend on us. We don't leave each other easily and we are not " Indy " like young anymore. We are not that free.
During the age of 45 years, there may be some people who feel like "leaving" all of these and walk on an empty path, but they can't leave because this is the world around us. We create. We live in it. It lives in us.
"Freedom" may be a longing again and realizing - not easy.
Of course, this is not everyone's life. If it's a rough overview that there may be some of the same point of those in the same age. Some people choose to walk different paths.
It's easy. Five years from now. Some friends will have kids. Some friends will be dealing with the change. Some friends may lose parents. Some friends may find a disease. Some friends may find that they do are done. Some friends may need to lay their hands on. Something and start over with something etc etc etc.
That friend may be me too, no one knows.
If things haven't happened in 41-50 years, it will happen in 45-50 years, our lives will look very different from now.
...
We have traveled over half way of life and have passed the bright time, full of power, including the highs of life. Yes, we can live as cheerful as young children. Teenagers won't get old, dye the head, climbing the helicopter to conquer. Ron man, things have been in another corner. We have to admit that we have traveled for a long time and others in our lives have been traveling for a long time too.
We will learn to leave and deal with it better as much as learning to start again, we will get used to the cuddle rules of feeling of happiness - suffering that happens and the rules of everything is getting better and better. I will have to go through that day. I have to go through a bit of confusing time.
Five more years, it won't look like now.
Hugging parents while they are still playing with kids when they still want to play with us. Use our body as they still allow us to use our body to take ourselves where we want to go when they can still have a conversation with Friends, when you have a chance, because someone may disappear. One day for a reason that no one knows how to take care of the lover, kiss, play jokes in the moment together. Experience the change that happens all the time and we will know what to do with ourselves and with ourselves and with people. Around the surrounding area.
It's not us who change, people around you keep changing. The world keeps changing.
Five more years, it won't look like now.
But even then, we will grow up and find the answer that all the changes are left of all the changes that we will continue to build a small one to live.
Something that I think will change big may not happen while things that I don't think will change, it may change until we can't stand up.
41-50 years. This is the moment we live in a world full of changes that we cannot control.
It all makes us realize how we should live in the midst of all this uncertainty.
I suddenly saw a melting ice cream.
So delicious. Heart is broken.
Then I put a spoon in my mouth
Not in a hurry that I didn't taste it, but it's not too slow that it's not
We will get some taste and have to let some melt away
41-50 years, a life span like ice creamTranslated

【加減乘除的人生】
I have been very broke and very broken before.
(60 cents in bank, hello!)
In those dreadful days of brokenness, I spent countless long nights binge watching Youtube and blog surfing. From midnight all the way to dawn.
I lamented at how many other people are more successful, eloquent, smarter and better-looking than me.
Influencers, bloggers, content creators, Youtubers...
The more I watched and read, the more broken and stupid I felt.
My failed businesses have knocked the wind out of me and I lost the confidence to be a Feng Shui practitioner, despite Shifu and my husband egging me on.
I assumed I would suck at it, just like how I failed at everything else.
I hid for a very long long time in my eggshell, refusing to tell people that I know Metaphysics or the Dharma to help them with their life problems.
I can't even help myself. How am I qualified to help them?
Fast forward 5 years later, I am blessed with a growing audience through my writing and FB Livestreams.
That I am able to monetise what I have been learning for the past 11 years and changing people's lives, one Bazi at a time.
What's more astonishing was I self-taught myself into doing up videos on the topics that matter most to my heart.
Watching YouTube make my dreams come true. #yesmumthatstrue
You may have read that I produced a Vesak Day video, a Mothers' Day video, a Summer Health Guide and a Father's Day video for Shifu in the last 2 months. Their combined total views are over 3000.
It felt bittersweet to hear from my husband he liked my videos.
You see, years ago, when I was crippled by my business, I asked the Husband if his company needed a marketing person for their social media.
I thought they could do better in their FB marketing and gave him a lot of ideas.
The husband brushed me off, saying that his boss was unlikely to have the budget to take me in. I tried bargaining for just $200/mth for trial. But was turned down flat. #stingy
I was forced to come out and do something on my own. #女人當自強
Life feels like a Ferris wheel of deja vu sometimes.
2001. My first attempt in doing videos started in NUS Buddhist Society. I was sought to be the Vice-Chairperson in the Freshmen Orientation Camp committee. At that time, my mum bought a Sony camcorder and somehow we came up with the idea of doing a video, introducing Buddhism to the freshies, modelled after the 城人雜誌 variety show.
We went to a few temples in Singapore, of Tibetan, Mahayana and Theravada linages, showcasing the difference in various styles of prostration and offerings. My Chairman Vincent Kwan and another Comm. member starred in the video, while I did the voiceover and shooting.
I had to beg my Bizad friend who was a whiz in IT stuff, to help me edit. I parked like an owl at his home for several nights till after midnight.
Despite all the efforts we put in, the video wasn't well-received by the freshies. They felt Buddhism is one complicated maze after watching it. But the seniors liked it.
I learnt the importance of understanding my target market and perceived customisation.
Not that I understood that better when I did businesses.
I only got it after I became a Feng Shui practitioner and marketing online for a year through more trial and error.
Before the few videos I did this year, I had produced videos for Shifu a few years back. They received generally good response on his budding FB page. Despite being very low key, he has major underground Peach Blossom Luck and much goodwill among his clientele after all.
But nothing like these recent videos that get shared 11-13 times, with reach over 500-600% of the page's fan base.
I don't know what clicked inside me this year, to be able to produce videos that people like.
To be able to do FB Lives that get shared, reacted and commented, and be told that I'm natural on screen, when I used to have onscreen fright.
Feels like Disney magic at work, doesn't it? (Okay, I admit I used Feng Shui.)
I look back and discover life is a game of arithmetic.
My story-telling competitions in primary school.
A librarian in secondary school.
My leadership roles in JC and NUS.
My key role in project presentations in Uni.
Door-to-door and telephone surveys.
A barista in Coffee Bean.
Modelling for Carrie's.
A banquet waitress at Royal Scotts (where the fish head flew onto the table, sauce and fish eyeballs and all, as I was cutting up the fish)
Tutoring children.
Meeting tens of thousands of passengers in SQ.
Being the merchandiser, photographer and graphics designer for my failed blogshop business.
Tagging along the generous and strict Shifu, who taught me for free all these 11 years.
Knowing Sam Choo and Tavia Wong, in 2015 July, opened up my eyes to the IM world and learnt branding + FB marketing knowledge that my NUS professors miss out.
The rejections, the failures...
Take out any one of these, and I would lose that courage, gungho-ness, eloquence, marketability and skilfulness in handling people and trying new things, that you see now.
I sometimes see clients who lament about their less-than-desirable family backgrounds.
Or their companies who do not give them the pay and environment they crave.
Or their partners who always hold them back.
They tell me their dreams and ask me what they can do.
I would eagerly tell them their favourable elements and industries to work in.
Over time, I observed clients can know how to use their favourable elements, and yet have massively different results.
The difference lies not just in their attitude towards life, but what skills they have amassed over the years.
People have dreams, but few make serious effort to gain a skill that will push them an inch closer to their aspirations.
Or they get so caught up in life's dramas that they forgot they can.
I have seen too many clients resigned to tough life. Especially those with children.
It's like they have bid farewell to Life, before they even get near the coffin. #趕去投胎嗎
My Bazi indicated that I would be doing what I studied as a career.
I was telling Shifu, strange that I wasn't.
He told me, I was. With all the heavy duty articles I post on FB, the copywriting I learnt, landing pages, 50 over FB Livestreams, 11 workshops, I am marketing Chinese Metaphysics and Dharma.
Derrick, my web designer, remarked that he had never seen a geomancer who does marketing online the way I did. Very different from what he had seen.
I realised they are right. I am very marketing-slanted in the way I do things. NUS Bizad will be so proud of this alumni.
On my down days, I would think it is too late for me to be doing all these when I'm hitting 40.
On my up days like today, I would think if not now, when?
The more you practice, the more polished you get at doing something.
You have seen me at my most amateurish on FB, writing and doing Livestreams.
I hope it had inspired you in one way or another. If not for the better, at least don't make the same mistakes I did. Make better ones. 😄
If you wish to join me on my journey, as I take my baby step into Youtube, you can subscribe to me at:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCweF0iGnkE2kxMlMDcDvnqA
There is only one video uploaded so far. No channel art. No fancy words. No custom URL as I would need 100 subs before I qualify.
That 4-minute video was my very first video on Chinese Metaphysics and got me over 1459 views on Facebook, since 2016 June.
I only have 350+ friends now. Does that mean each of you watch it thrice? 😍
I will gradually edit my FB videos, throw in the subtitles, and upload them on Youtube. It won't be monetised so that next time, you can binge watch my videos with no interruption.
While I have a couple of videos in the pipeline, I do not have concrete plans what I wish to do for my Youtube channel.
But life is a game of arithmetic. As long as I am moving in my favourable direction, I am going to grow into a health stocky broccoli. Non-GMO.
Stay with me, my friend. Let's see how high we can soar together.
