» Ponn Virulrak, a successful architect, academic, and chairman of Light Up Total Solution, discovered his love for running in his 40s and embarked on this path of passion with full determination. This passion, however, diverged from what he refers to as "a source of joy" to a spiritually transformative experience after an excruciating knee injury. Through the turbulence, turmoil and trauma of going from being active to being home-confined by his inability to walk well, he began exploring mindfulness as a way to cope with his new reality. After years of using mindfulness techniques to pull him from his "downward spiral", he wrote How To Be Sick Mindfully, a book illustrating his journey and 21 actionable tools to get through a chronic illness without anxiety, depression, or trauma.

» I've heard about the "digital economy" for a while, and like the term "AEC", I don't really know what it means. But if it means we're going to go fully digital -- or at least planning to -- we have a lot of work ahead of us.

» I was about a few years short of being able to apply for my driver's license when they announced they would no longer be offering lifelong permits. That means, for the rest of my life, I'm required to visit the Department of Land Transport every five years to renew this little white card that I've never really used — for which I am proud, as it means I've never been flagged down by traffic police!
