Why I write

Updated August 23, 2023

Discover the Truth. Apply it. Reap the Benefits. Pass it on.

I write as a way of journaling my reflections. I also write as a way of sharing my thoughts and passing on my experiences – the truth I discovered, the truth I applied, and the benefits I reaped – as a startup founder.

  1. Discover the Truth

Discovery is the inspiration of living. Learning to discover is the perspiration. I write to share the first principle truths, ideas, and experiences I have learnt. I will write about everything that is personally life-changing and worthwhile to pass on.

  1. Apply it

Truth doesn’t change life. It is truth applied that changes life. Truth can be insightful and inspiring. But without action, it is powerless. I only write about the truth I have applied. In other words, I only write about what I know and do. I do not write Entrepreneur porn. You should not be reading entrepreneur porn as well.

  1. Reap the Benefits

The truths I am sharing through my writing are authentic because the benefits of these truths are first-hand experiences and gains of mine. I only share what I have practised. 

This truth has always rung true for me:

“What I hear, I forget. What I see, I remember. What I do, I understand. What I understand, I change.” 

It is what I apply that brings about real understanding and real transformation.

  1. Pass it on

I believe in the compounding effects of writing and learning. It is my desire to share what I learnt to the future generations of entrepreneurs. I will keep on discovering the truth, applying the truth, reaping the benefit, so that I can pass on everything I learnt to the next generation.
