“The Heart of Loneliness” (From Accountancy to TEFL #7)

On June 24, 2020June 24, 2020 By Kingston LimIn From Accountancy to TEFL4 Comments

When those whom you've come to really on suddenly aren't there, it's as though you've lost a limb.

“Travel Hacking: How I Live Without An Income” (From Accountancy to TEFL #6)

On June 17, 2020June 17, 2020 By Kingston LimIn From Accountancy to TEFL10 Comments

I can live 3 years without an income while I work on making something happen, this is how I did it.

“Are You Part of the Cargo or Member of the Crew?” (From Accountancy to TEFL #5)

“A Wrong Does Not Right A Wrong” (From Accountancy to TEFL #4)

On June 3, 2020June 3, 2020 By Kingston LimIn From Accountancy to TEFL11 Comments

If you are pursuing something and begin to think, "this ain't me" on the other side of your shoulder there'll be a voice whispering, "but you've already put so much time into this." That's sunk cost fallacy.

“Plan But Leave Room For Adjustments” (From Accountancy to TEFL #3)

On May 27, 2020June 3, 2020 By Kingston LimIn From Accountancy to TEFL43 Comments

That last summer as a college boy, I worked as an accounting intern. I was working a day job and living on my own. I was set. But I failed to leave room for adjustment.

“Caught in a Rat Race” (From Accountancy to TEFL #2)

On May 22, 2020June 3, 2020 By Kingston LimIn From Accountancy to TEFL19 Comments

Work, school, work, school. I got blown off by my professor as being nothing special because I wasn't. I was in a premature rat race where I put in 100% of my efforts towards meeting obligations and 0% towards going after dreams.

Prologue: “Going Practical” (From Accountancy to TEFL #1)

On May 16, 2020June 3, 2020 By Kingston LimIn From Accountancy to TEFL11 Comments

The practical choice ain't always the right choice, but that's the choice I made in high school.
