Having an open mind with things

  • by

Hello! I actually don’t know who would read this but — I want to say thank you. Thank you for reading my little personal blog. Thank you for staying with me through hard times, thank you for staying with me when I am all along working hard try to fight through all the difficulties. Because at the time of writing, as of August 2026, 6 years into this Re Pillow journey, I still do not know how this will goes and where this will lead me. I still remember one of my cousins, who is in his 70s, told me that one of the most established, one of my most admired brands in my industry, a-fontane, which is also one of my partner now, has started off, believe it or not, with its name being synonymous with “pilling”. And now it becomes this huge name in the industry. I think the founder has a good heart, even from my limited experience with him. I think that for all businesses, especially smaller ones when things are more within reach of the founder, the business is an extension of the founder. How he himself works basically defines how the business is like. If one is a selfish person, it shows in what he does. If one is always looking out for one another and concerned with improvements, the business will go on and grow.

But one thing I want to say is to enable the maximum amount of growth one must have can open mind with things. One must constantly be aware of the potential limitations from his angle and be open to new thoughts and ideas and comments, no matter how stupid. This is what will keep one thriving over the long run, as what Steve have said, Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish.
