A couple of my friends notice me posting videos on Youtube and they ask, why do I talk about career empowerment? Would it be a lot easier or more fun to make prank videos or game streaming?

Now that I realize I haven’t talked a lot about myself in my blog post or video, so I’m going to share my life story with you here.

My Childhood

It all starts back when I was in primary school.

I was quite a gifted child, I only study on the night before exam but still able to get top 10 in my class. Probably doesn’t sound that impressive to you, but mind you, I studied in one of the top primary schools in Hong Kong, and there were like 40 people in my class.

I didn’t have to put in lots of effort and get the results I want. I thought that’s how life should be.

You might have guessed — This doesn’t last very long. A few years later, I can no longer keep up because what we learn is getting harder and harder.

My teacher no longer regarded me as a smart student. I became average, or more specifically, mediocre.

Back then, I didn’t see that as a problem. Life’s short, why should I work give my best and make my life difficult
