Be humble. Have rest. Never give up.

Sometime, photography isn't about the perfect lighting, perfect shutter speed, perfect aperture, perfect ISO..


Getting a perfect lit photo is just another better quality photo.

Photograph must tell a story.
Sometime, it's more about feeling.
Since the first deal
Two years ago I started this up and thought I would only run it for 3 months.

3 months has then turned into 2 years and still counting.

I don't really have a master plan for it but I just love what I'm doing.

Happy Birthday Tata!

Never underestimate your opponent.

Fight!
To be fair
Viewing the photos and videos from Facebook has got me thinking.

If one day we become the benefited, will we turn up like today for a better democracy?

Are we the same people driving madly on roads and put other people's life at risk?

There are always things in life that are unfair to us and to others.
When we're born to be the benefited, we often take the advantages made to us for granted.
And for things that hurt us, we rebel, protest, we ask for a change.

When we say "we want a better future", how many of us sincerely put other's happiness beyond ours, or are we simply mean "I want a better future"?

And how many of us actually willing to sacrifice our happiness in order to make the world a better place?

In the biological world, competition for the limited resource is a law.
We can't be better without making someone else worse.

We often admire Heroes that save the mankind, but human politics don't work the ideal way.
Leaders can't win support without first punishing enemies into a worse state.

Just like most heroes in movie that smash building and cause serious car crash before they win the final battle and save the world, justice sometime comes with great cost, and the injustice for the victims is often neglected.

Rules that seemed to make humanity better are always flawed in some points and might not be better than yesterday's rules.

Communism leads to low productivity, capitalism leads to inequality, monarchy system makes incompetent leader, democracy makes cronyism.

Laws, like computer programs, are subjected to attack.
There must be people that exploit the loopholes.
When laws improve, the hackers move forward.
And when laws get sophisticated, ordinary people are the one suffered most, because under the law that no ordinary people can understand, the smart exploiter can easily camouflage himself, thus undetected.

Fairness has seemed to be a subjective term.
We all born with different principles and priorities in life.

It's hard for us to all agree on the same set of rules.
Tolerance is what we have for things that're unfair.

Politician becomes the master of tolerance controller.
They try to find the optimum point.

Sometime, they remain good for a longtime and sometime, like today, all hell breaks loose.

There is only one thing that I truly believe in -- that's the education.
Only when we become smarter, we become less vulnerable to the exploitation of our leaders.
Being too comfortable


Whowe, it's time to go further.

Stop bullshitting your high tech ideas.

Your current business comes from a damn stupid idea and you do it with first class execution.

So why stuck at dreaming up first class idea only to end up with third class execution?

Move on.

You're not Mark Zuckerberg or Larry Page.

Let's start with a damn stupid idea again.

我承认我不是一个热爱竞争的人。

一旦每个人都在抢着追求同一样东西,每个人所付出的代价将会更高,所得到的也将会更少。

因此我选择性竞争,“值得”的东西,我追求;“不值得”的东西,我压根儿不会去理。

工作如此,人生亦也如此。

往往选择去探索他人从不探索的领域,收获将更大。
那些年,我们都在干嘛?
有种故事时常会出现。

就是在毕业若干年后的某次同学聚会,就会出现一个叫做X的老同学。
当每个人都在互相羡慕彼此工作环境,或者讨论另一个同学多赚了几百或几千块薪水的时候,这个X同学就会让这些话题显得微不足道。

因为他赚的可能是上万块,或者月入十几万、百万、千万...

每同遇见这样的X同学,你或许都会问问自己这些年都在干嘛?
难免还是会自嘲了一下。

人生就是一场又一场的俄罗斯轮盘。

总是会有那么几个人轻易地Straight bet(一赔35)好几次,也总是会有那么一大群人似乎好像永远停在原地。

人生除了钱以外,仍然有许多值得追求的事物。

但我想,有几点还是很重要。

就是可能..
我们必须犹豫少一点,行动快一点。
懒惰少一点,积极多一点。
等待少一点,争取多一点。

无论是要争取亲情、爱情、健康、友情、事业,总是要尽全力地完成。
