Celebrating Easter Sunday in China It is hard to be religious while living in China. Especially living in a Chinese household (father in law, wife, kids mostly localized) – but I do try to recognize the holidays I grew up celebrating. So there is a Easter Sunday celebration at the Abnet community -which is a weekly business networking lunch community …
Finding Your Passion, Growing Your Talent, and Making it Sustainable
Here are my reflections from participating in the GIFTED Seminar. I took part in the seminar after the Abnet Easter lunch on April 16, and was pleasantly surprised with what I learned. Heck, I didn’t even expect there to be a seminar after the lunch. It started out with a clip on how the McDonald brothers created the business model …
Keeping Energy Levels High – Mike’s Blog 090
How do you stay energized throughout the day? Today’s video blog I was so tired to even record it – but then it sparked the idea to go around and ask people how they keep high energy levels consistently throughout the day. Coffee? Sleep? Mindset? Supplements? Natural? Music? Seemed a wide range of ideas and concepts. Also I was able …
Mike’s Blog 089 – be The “Man in the Arena”
Be the Man in the Arena One of my favorite poems and blog posts here – The Man in the Arena by Teddy Roosevelt. Let me read it out loud to you. So it is that – to not be a critic of what others are doing. Be the gladiator in the arena. Instead of saying “wow, Mike could do …
Dealing Under Pressure, Mike’s Blog 088
Pushing The Limits How do you feel about getting outside of your comfort zone? I don’t know if anyone likes it – but I can tell you – the times I have is the time I have seen growth in my life and my business. I’m going through it right now actually. We have our biggest event to date coming …
How Will People Remember You When You’re Dead?
Today’s video blog originally started about my being on a panel about personal branding, but somehow turned into how people will remember you when you’re dead. I guess there actually is a connection between the 2. A brand is something that people say about you (or your company, or your product) when you’re not in the room. At your funeral, …
The Times We Live For – Mike’s Blog 086
We should all take our birthday as a time to reflect. I remember when I was living at home, I would come home from school and my mom would have stacks of baby photos piled up on the living room table for me to review. I had no recollection of those photos – those early 1980 blurry kodak photos of …
Dealing With Multiple Languages – Mike’s Blog 085
How do you deal with multiple cultures and languages? For years, I have seen things in my life constantly get lost in translation. It is the challenge but also the opportunity. Living in Asia, bouncing around between Hong Kong, China, and some parts of South East Asia I often lose my mind. Because you are switching your thought process, your …
Tips for Finding Editors on Your Writing
Finding Editors For Your Articles This is a question I received from Ricky in Shenzhen – how do you find quality English language editors? So, to be clear, a ton of what I write I don’t edit as much as I should. To me, I am writing these blogs to help people and if I put up more costs and …
Sunday Morning Hustle
It is Sunday morning. 7:30am and I am grinding. Some people like working at night – I enjoy working in the morning. Its much harder to get out of bed (wake up early) than to stay out of bed (go to sleep late) and you have much more discipline that way. Because if you work late – then how do …
This Blog Just Turned 10 Years Old!
Amazing how fast time goes – I remember fumbling around with Blogger platform early in 2007 trying to figure out how to blog. I had build websites and was selling on my own e-commerce shops – but blogging, as a person – was still new for me. I was so shy to put my real name online. So shy that …
Most People Die at 25, We Just Don’t Put Em in a Box til their 75, Mike’s Blog 084
“Most People Die at 25, We Just Don’t Put Em in a Box til their 75”, powerful. This is a quote that has been engrained in my mind almost every day. I can’t remember where I first heard it, but I googled it and found a similar variation via Goodreads: “Many people die at twenty five and aren’t buried until …
Tools I Use For Marketing A Blog
