Singapore is still the very best (maybe except the weather). My cafe is finally opened. Well, technically speaking… it’s not a pure cafe anymore. I [...]

Guts Needed
September 19th, 2009 · 1 Comment · My Life
Starting an offline (traditional, brick and mortar) business seriously needs guts. Although it’s still in the pre-beginning stage, I can already feel some stress. Doing a traditional business is so much more difficult than an online business. The capital, the planning, the execution etc. There are so many things to be done. And of course, [...]
