Even when you have the same ingredients & it’s always you who bake, results don’t always come out the same.

Even when you have done every things possibly right according to some famous start up school recipe, you still fail.

Temperature, humidity, your mood & sequence of actions. And luck. All matters.

What remains a constant is hard work & deep reflection.

What went wrong?

And what could be done for the next batch or the next pitch.

To tolerate one baker’s failure is just as hard as a founder. You clean up your own mess & eat your own sh*t (sometimes) & trash stuffs that no longer bring values.

But those who bake enjoy the buttery fragrance, sense of belonging, mind & body & taste bud harmonize.

While a founder does not always taste what pleases the heart. Not always have the patience to nurture their soul & the people in the grind altogether.

A cookie dough can rest overnight but a fund raising cannot rest.

I have a wish.

When this is over, I’ll tattoo all over. Be an artist who used to do tech.

Learn crazy stuffs like jewelry making, have my own print shop, creative expression workshop for kids, and serve banana cake for free.

No transform the world kind of blahs blahs

1AM & kitchen smell so good.

I’m ready.
