This was my hour long in depth personal interview on GOOD TV in Taiwan. In this interview I talk about my personal faith journey, my family background, my passion, love life (or lack there of haha) and God’s goodness… be inspired!
Will Smith has always been one of my role models, someone I aspire to be like, someone who fights for what he believes in, makes the impossible possible, defies all boundaries, does good to others, stays true to himself, stands for what he believes in and it’s mad cool at the same time. This video is inspiring, it’s wisdom that can only be gained through experience. Remember talent is given, but skill is gained. Learn from what Will has to say, apply to your own life and make your dreams happen…
ps… I’m going to work with Will Smith one day… just watch :)
Every summer I take time out to go on a personal spiritual retreat. This summer I went to a special location called the “Prayer Caves” (www.prayercaves.com) in Southern California to pray and fast for four days. The experience was powerful. I came back spiritually refreshed, recharged and refocused in my life mission and purpose. During those four days I slept, prayed studied God’s word and only drank water in an actual mountain cave.

We live in a digital world where we are constantly distracted, attracted and retracted to “other things” that constantly grab our attention. Whether that is our cell phone (i-phone, blackberry, smart phone), our laptop, our emails, our social media outlets (facebook.com, myspace.com, twitter.com, etc), our Television, our Radio, our IPOD, and the list goes on, it seems that the constant in flow and out flow of information is non-stop. Sometimes I lay in bed to go to sleep, but I can’t even fall asleep because
One reason I absolutely love being Chinese American is that I get to celebrate two new years. I get to celebrate January 1st New Years and I get to celebrate Chinese New Years. Of course, I kind of favor Chinese New Years over the other one because I get little red bags full of money, but more than that I get to experience a time of celebrating and spending time with family and relatives.

All of our cousins would gather together to have a great Chinese New Years feast, while we would also give out red bags to one another to start the new year fresh. As a young boy, opening red bags was like opening Christmas presents. You never knew how much money you would get. Sometimes it could be a few dollars, other times it would be
