Swing Big, Learn Fast, Enjoy the Game

“Swing for the fences” isn’t about reckless decisions. It’s about taking measured risks with intention. The biggest opportunities rarely come from playing it safe. They come from stepping slightly outside your comfort zone with a clear sense of purpose.

That requires a mindset where you’re not afraid to fail. Failure isn’t the opposite of success. It’s part of the process. Each miss gives you data, perspective, and resilience that make the next swing stronger and smarter.

And through it all, it’s important to make work fun. When you enjoy the process, you bring more creativity, energy, and persistence to what you do. It keeps you in the game longer, and often that’s what makes the difference.

In the end, swinging for the fences is about balancing courage with clarity. Take the shot, learn from every outcome, and enjoy the ride along the way.

bad poetry, singapore 2003

burning grass,
summer days,
moon lit nights,
childhood games

daily walks,
playful dog,
early mornings,
before the dawn.

little lad,
looking sad
little boy,
full of joy

living together
for so long
life is fine
like good wine

the boss’ wife
singing “love’s glory”
no apologies
for my life story.

going away
life’s a journey
one hello
i gotta go.
