The Strangest Day I Ever Had in Taiwan

You're never going to believe what happened.



I pulled up to the Tao Sing Waterfall parking lot in Yunlin County today.  First, the coffee truck girl was not wearing a shirt. Instead of a shirt, she draped a Mexican flag around her top half. But, she only spoke Turkish.



Then, a Taiwanese family arrived for coffee with three kids under five years old. But, the children were driving. Don't worry that they were driving a car. They were driving a plane. I say driving and not flying because their plane was having problems getting off the ground. It was a plane, powered by childrens' farts.  The mother was quite upset, because her son Frank  was constipated. His inability to fart made them late for a meeting later today.


 Then, I was forced to play a game of One Shot One Shot,or Walk, The game is a favorite among Aboriginals. You have to take a shot of Gao Liang followed by a shot to the face from the oldest Tribesman, or walk home. I had to call a cab to the hospital; because I took ten shots in total. 

The Chief that kicked my ass


 Besides  all this, monkeys were walking the trail, and throwing Beetlenut at people. Baby monkeys too.

Don't believe that innocent face.

 Well,you're not going to believe that this happened, because none of it happened.

5 Reasons Why I Joined The TIE Mastermind Group

Image
So, I recently decided to invest the time and money to join a Mastermind group. Many years ago, I read about Mastermind groups in one of Napoleon Hill's books, Think & Grow Rich. The idea to either start my own Mastermind  group, or participate in one, always intrigued me. I am playfully looking it as bootcamp for the mind.  The Mastermind group officially kicks off tomorrow night at 9 p.m., with our first group call on Zoom.  Here are five reasons  why I decided to do it. #1 Trust Although I live about three hours from Taipei by train, I have observed the actions of the group, Taipei Impact Entrepreneurs , over  the last year and a half or so. My instincts have been that everyone in the group is extremely friendly , professional, and supportive. I never would have joined if they did not have that opportunity to establish a strong sense of trust within the community that hey are jumpstarting.  # 2 Accountability   One of the things that helped persuade me to invest the time an

The Dangers Of Talking Without a Filter Via Social Media What could possibly go wrong with an idea to come home every night and tell one unfiltered story of what happened that day, on Youtube? :) I know I am walking into dangerous territory when I start talking without a filter, especially given the current climate. People have perfected their ability to be offended. However, I also realize that if I don't look deep enough inside, and let some dark and unfiltered stuff out of the gut and the heart, it will just be another generic dude telling stories for the sake of popularity, which misses the point. The Birth of The Story of The Day Last week, I just had a gut feeling that it would be a good thing for me to take a few minutes every night and tell one story from something that happened that day. I decided to go with it even though I don't have the first clue about setting a room for proper lighting, nor do I know anything about sound editing. Finding A Movement After the third

A WTF Tinder Date (In The Philippines)

A Rocky Start    The buzz of an airport's The airport's midnight buzz may even aggravate those with the most patience. Could it ruffle the red and yellow of the Dalia Lama's robe?   Burger King grease scented the air to help rumble restless stomachs. The bench's jagged edges poked from the spine through the rib cages and into the  of the resting travelers. The midnight buzz of Manila stayed in its place. In Manila, , The speakers cracked above my head.  My eyes felt like rocks.  Sun heated The Puerto Princessa  Airport pavement. Dogs slept under the benches. The blind massagers at The Manila Airport stayed behind. Their plastic chairs also stayed behind. A sign advertised the benefits of eating crocodile. I decided to walk. I always make this decision. I distrusted my surroundings. I Want To Walk- Oh Shit, I’m in a Trike ***Trike- attach a side car to a motorcycle taxi. *** Trike driver: “Excuse me sir, wh
