Larry Smith: Why you will fail to have a great career
In this funny and blunt talk from TEDxUW, Larry Smith pulls no punches when he calls out the absurd excuses people invent when they fail to pursue their passions.
".... No matter how many times people tell you: if you want to have a great career, you have to pursue your passion, you have to pursue your dreams, you have to pursue the greatest fascination in your life.You hear it again and again and then you decide not to do it. It does not matter how many times you download Stephen J’s Stanford Commencement Address. You still looked at it and decided not to do it.I am not quite sure why you decided not to do it. You are too lazy to do it, it is too hard, You are afraid if you go look for your passion and don’t find it, you ll feel like you are an idiot, so then you ll make excuses about why you are not going to look for your passion. And they are excuses..."
Larry Smith is a professor of economics at University of Waterloo. A well-known storyteller and advocate for youth leadership, he has also mentored many of his students on start-up business management and career development. The most notable start-up he advised in its infancy is Research in Motion (RIM), maker of the BlackBerry

The 3 Symptoms of Killing Our Dream
by Paulo Coelho, on Feb 20, 2011
The first symptom of the process of our killing our dreams is the lack of time. The busiest people I have known in my life always have time enough to do everything. Those who do nothing are always tired and pay no attention to the little amount of work they are required to do. They complain constantly that the day is too short. The truth is, they are afraid to fight the Good Fight.

PAPILIO - A collection for LPM 2011
Take a look at my 12 sketches for LPM 2011, inspired by PAPILIO! It did not get through the semi-finalist selection. But I am pretty happy with it since I feel that I have progressed quite a lot from LPM 2009. Unfortunately I lost all the files I had for LPM 2009, thus I could not post the pictures here in my blog.
Enjoy!
Inspiration for LPM 2011
You must have read the story of my failure for LPM 2011 in my previous post: Try Again. Fail Again. Fail Better. Now, I would like to share to you my original inspiration for this year's LPM.
This inspiration draws from the people I have meet and seen in my life: the people who struggle to pursue and live up their dream. They are my friends and my muse. I can totally understand the struggle that people have to endure to live up their dream. And it is not easy. Never is. Sometimes, you are in the top, most of the time you are in the bottom, and you think of quitting. But you just move on.
I have once said, that it is not the end goal that actually matters. For me, the most important part is actually the journey, the process. I don't believe that there will be an absolute end point. Big designers like Marc Jacobs, Versace and etc... are renowned designers - but still every year, every season actually - they still have to beat their previous creations: next season's design have to be better or at least-as good as their previous ones.
And I think - this what makes them turn into a beautiful butterfly. They transform. They learn. Become better. Become beautiful.
And that is just the story behind my collection for LPM 2011.
