HERE'S HOW
WE APPROACH IT

1. Flow as an art, not just a science

Flow isn’t a hack; it’s a way of moving through life. We don’t just optimize performance; we design a way of being where excellence feels natural.

I help you fine-tune awareness so you can move with precision, make decisions effortlessly, and execute without friction—like a master artist at work.

The goal? A seamless, high-performing life where flow is the standard, not the exception.

2. Refinement over force

More pressure isn't the answer. Refinement is. We strip away inefficiencies, remove resistance, and sharpen instincts until high performance feels inevitable.

You don’t need to grind harder—you need to make mastery effortless.

This is the essence of effortlessness—where movement, thought, and execution are so precise that nothing is wasted.

3. Playfulness and exploration

Flow thrives on curiosity, lightness, and experimentation. If you’re not enjoying the process, you’re doing it wrong.

We tune into your intrinsic motivation and make flow a natural, repeatable experience rather than a moment you stumble upon.

High performance will feel like a dance not a checklist.

4. Elegance in execution

You're don't rush anything yet you're always on time. That's how we approach performance—smooth, precise, and effective.

You’ll learn to achieve more by doing less not through laziness but through clarity, control, and presence.

We remove all unnecessary friction so that every action carries weight and every movement matters.

5. The long game: sustainable, reliable, repeatable flow

Hustle culture is unsustainable. True high performers play the long game.

We create a rhythm that keeps you sharp, engaged, and performing at your peak—without burnout.

This isn’t about momentary success—it’s about designing a life that makes flow inevitable.

Client Reviews

PHIL

As a coach Nash gives the impression of being totally in a flow state. So how appropriate that she teaches flow!

Nash succeeded in creating a 'safe space' where I felt comfortable sharing fairly personal information. Most importantly she gave me tailor-made mental tools to enable me to achieve my goals.

KARLIJN

Nash is an excellent listener, she cuts to the chase and really helped me to gain a fresh and new perspective on things, especially with regards to how to approach setting up a new business.

I also loved the way she utilised flow triggers to (re)spark my excitement and passion in my day-to-day tasks, activities and interactions with people.

She was able to highlight those areas where I felt very stuck and we went through some practical exercises and solutions to moving forward. Really enjoyable and very useful. Thank you Nash! :)

BLAIR

During my coaching session with Nash, I expressed my desire to understand and utilise flow to help overcome states of disinterest and disillusionment towards work projects.

Throughout our call, Nash was incredibly present, empathetically understanding the situations I was experiencing, and supporting me to challenge myself with total honesty.

The session was led expertly, and upon completion, I felt empowered, focused and much clearer on how to manage the issues I was facing. I would definitely recommend Nash to anyone looking to bring more flow into their life!

JAQ

At the beginning of the session, I said I was looking for clarity and really felt I had that by the end of the session. I had 2 paths I told Nash was looking at taking and she helped me galvanize in my mind which will fit with my ethos. She helped me re-frame and look at things from a different perspective.

She also helped me have a better understanding of how I work in my life. We talked through the steps I will take and Nash will follow up with me to see how I am progressing.

I feel really motivated for what I decided to do and have already completed my first step as I said I would. I found the experience illuminating and have already recommended Nash to a friend.

WORK WITH NASH

I used to think high performance meant pushing harder.

More hours.
More goals.
More grit.

And to be fair — it worked.

I was achieving.

But I was also burning out.

What people didn’t see behind the wins were the crashes in between.

The anxiety.
The perfectionism.

The constant pressure to prove something — even when I didn’t know who I was trying to impress anymore.

It wasn’t until I hit rock bottom — a painful heartbreak and a massive failure in my business that shook me — that I was forced to pause and take a hard look at my life.

I did a full audit.

Why was I failing in the very areas I cared about most?

Why did I keep pushing, achieving, and performing… only to end up burned out and disconnected?

That season cracked me open.

I had a degree in psychology I hadn’t fully tapped into yet — and I felt pulled to go deeper.

I threw myself into the science of flow and optimal performance.

I pursued advanced training in performance coaching with Flow Centre™️ rooted in the neuroscience and psychology of high-functioning humans.

And by the grace of God, I began rebuilding how I operated — from the inside out.

That’s when it clicked:

I wasn’t out of alignment because I wasn’t capable.

I was out of alignment because I was running on fear and ego instead of clarity and purpose.

What I really needed wasn’t more drive. It was a new lens.

A new way of seeing the world — and myself.

Because if that hadn’t changed, I’d keep recreating the same cycles of burnout, overwhelm, and anxiety.

And I knew I couldn’t live like that anymore.

Now, I help high-performing humans break that cycle.

Founders.
Athletes.
Creatives.
Leaders.
Executives.

People who want to win — but not at the cost of their health, joy, or soul.

We retrain how you operate.

We build your life around the science of flow and sustainable high performance.

We sharpen your mental edge and cultivate a mindset that scales with you — so you can go all in without crashing.

Because performance isn’t just about doing more.

It’s about doing it differently.

If any part of this resonates — I’d love to connect.

Or feel free to DM me if you want to jam on this further.

I was making a reel this morning while I was making coffee because I got excited about my new minipresso.

It’s a portable espresso-maker and as a rock climber who travels a lot to climb, I never know where I end up in. And can’t be too sure if that place has good coffee — but finally I don’t have to suffer from bad coffee anymore.

That’s just the side story.

But the point is, because I did a voiceover on that reel, somehow it brought back memories of my old career.

I used to have a media company where we produced branded podcasts, specifically narrative-driven podcasts like audio journalism style.

While doing that, we also produced our own narrative podcasts — to showcase what we can do.

It was a podcast about my journey as a solo founder building a media company.

Here’s me in 2021 doing a voice over.

I always love most things involving audio becasue it’s a delicate art. You gotta be so in tuned. You need to be in flow state while doing it.

Decent humans need art.

And art requires flow.

Beautiful things are created in flow NOT by force.

I don’t know about you but at this point in my life and after everything I’ve gone through —

I want everything I pursue to be created in flow state not force and grit. I want none of that.

The process is light, joyful, and fulfilling.

The accomplishment of the desired outcome is a bonus.

The desired outcome (goal) sets the direction and doesn’t determine my value.

I don’t have to suffer from bad coffee anymore 🤣 I don’t even know why I’m doing this video but I thought was a good idea — just experimenting with reels rn and seems like fun. Esp in the voiceover part — cause we all know I love to talk😅😁

Just needed to freshen things up and tighten up the branding.

Can’t wait to get back in the game again - this time with full force.

Let’s go! Vamos! 🔥🌶️

If there’s one thing I would boast — I would boast about my friends.

Because trust me, I would never become the person that I am right now nor will I be able to do hard things if not for my friends who counseled me, encouraged me, backed me, and spoke life to me — and challenged my thinking when it needed to be challenged.

They say no man is island. It sounds cliche but I guarantee you it holds so much truth, my life is proof to that.

It’s good to be independent. Nothing wrong with that.

But if that independence pushes people away, it’ll lead to loneliness which can then lead to so many things.

And I’m saying this because I’ve been there before.

I was proud that I didn’t need anyone’s help, opinion, connections — nothing at all.

Which led to pride, arrogance, and hyper-independence. But in reality, I was masking my hunger for connection and fear of rejection.

Somehow I matured, God changed my heart. I kept praying for friends.

I kept praying that God will lead the right people into my life. And He did — He answered my prayer way more than I could’ve imagined.

So I don’t know about you but I love having friends around — the right kind of friends, that is.

Seek them out.
Treasure them.
Invest in those friendships.

Because they’re worth more than gold.

You can go so much further when you know you have solid relationships and solid people who believe you can go so much further.

Go.

Thought I’d start posting old photos (circa 2021-2023) I never got to post. Just to remind myself of the life I’ve been blessed with and the friends that I got to share these adventures with.

This life hasn’t been without struggles, trials, and hardships.

But at the end of the day, you look back and realize — “God causes all things to work together for our good” (Romans 8:28).

Discipline will get you far. Purpose will pull you further.

Most people think success is about:

— pushing harder
— grinding longer
— forcing the outcome

But the real secret to peak performance over the long haul?

Getting pulled in.

Discipline is waking up at 5 AM because you said you would.
Purpose is waking up at 5 AM because you can’t wait to dive in.

Discipline is forcing yourself through the motions.
Purpose is moving with momentum.

This isn’t about choosing one over the other—
discipline matters.

But white-knuckling your way through life?
That’s a recipe for burnout.

Flow happens when discipline meets direction.

When the work stops feeling like work.

When you shift from forcing it to being pulled by it.

Long-term success isn’t about fighting yourself every day.

It’s about aligning so deeply with what drives you that showing up isn’t a battle—it’s a privilege.

So, are you forcing it?

Or are you being pulled in?

I’m no musician but if you can’t do karaoke you’re gonna have to make the most out of what’s available. I’m staying at a friend’s and luckily she’s got a ukelele — so learned the easiest song and here we are.

Most people never hit flow —

not because they’re not capable
but because they don’t understand the process.

Flow isn’t luck.
It’s not a mood.
It’s a system.

And if you don’t know the sequence,
you’ll stay stuck.

⚡ Struggle → where most people quit.

The grind.
The friction.
The part that feels impossible.
But if you push through…

⚡ Release → you let go.

Stop forcing.
Flow can’t exist in stress.
Breathe.
Trust.

⚡ Flow → where the magic happens.

No overthinking.
No hesitation.
Just effortless execution.

⚡ Recovery → because burnout is amateur hour.

The best know when to rest.
Nail the process → peak performance becomes automatic.

Most people never make it past the struggle phase.

The pros?

They understand that friction is part of the game.

Which phase do you get stuck in the most?

Danang x Hoi An getaway ☀️

~ still got so many photos mostly food, haha!

Here’s the thing about things looking easy—they were hard before they were easy.

But because you’re the kind of person who does hard things, you keep —

showing up
putting in the reps
stacking those 10,000 hours

You turn what once felt impossible into something that looks effortless.

So if you feel discouraged that you’re never going to get there, trust me — don’t be :)

Enjoy the thrill of the ‘hunt’.
Fall in love with the process.

It always gets hard before it gets easy.

But if you stay long enough it will eventually get easy.

The same goes with your climbing (whatever sport you’re obsessed with), your goals, your PR — you’ll get there.

It will get easy eventually. It’s just hard now.

But your the kind of person that does hard things

You got this!😎☀️

Why having an autotelic personality makes you more prone to access flow state.

Ever meet someone who seems to love the process more than the outcome?

They’re not chasing rewards or recognition—they’re just in it.

That’s an Autotelic Personality — someone who:

• finds meaning in the activity itself
• relishes challenges as opportunities, not obstacles
• prioritizes growth over external validation

Why are they more flow-prone?

Flow thrives when:

• the task is challenging but doable
• you’re fully immersed in the moment
• you enjoy the process for its own sake

Autotelic people naturally meet these conditions:

• they seek challenges for intrinsic enjoyment
• their focus is razor-sharp because they’re not distracted by outcomes
• their reward system isn’t tied to external factors—just pure engagement

The Science Behind It

Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi coined the term “autotelic.”

His research found these individuals enter flow states more often because they:

• thrive in environments of high complexity
• feel intrinsically motivated, reducing stress and increasing creativity

The Takeaway

You don’t need to be born autotelic to unlock flow.

You can train yourself to:

• fall in love with the process.
• reframe goals as experiments, not finish lines.
• let go of outcomes and embrace curiosity.

Want more flow? Start looking inward, not outward.

Which part of the process do you love most?

If you’re putting together a list of books to read this year — I hope you pick up one of these:

1. Rise of Superman - @stevenkotler
2. Flow (The Psychology of Optimal Experience) - Csikszentmihalyi
3. The Evolving Self - Csikszentmihalyi
4. Art of Impossible - Steven Kotler
5. Creativity - Csikszentmihalyi

Flow state — your brain’s superpower unlocked.

Imagine a moment where time disappears.

You’re fully immersed, crushing it, and the work feels effortless.

That’s flow state.

It’s not magic.

It’s neuroscience.

And it’s the edge you’ve been searching for.

What is flow?

Flow is your brain operating at peak performance.

Psychologists call it the “optimal state of consciousness.”

It’s when focus is sharp, distractions fade, and creativity + productivity skyrocket.

Think of flow as a turbocharger for your brain.

—

How does it work?

Flow isn’t random—it’s triggered by a specific cocktail of neurochemicals that supercharge your brain.

Here’s what’s happening upstairs:

1️⃣ Dopamine — your brain’s reward system lights up, boosting motivation and learning.

2️⃣ Norepinephrine — heightened focus keeps you locked in.

3️⃣ Endorphins — pain fades, and you feel unstoppable.

4️⃣ Anandamide — creativity flourishes as your mind starts connecting ideas effortlessly.

5️⃣ Serotonin — afterward, you feel calm, fulfilled, and deeply satisfied.

—

HOW TO START TRAINING FLOW

1️⃣ Find your challenge-skill sweet spot.

Flow happens when tasks stretch you just enough to stay engaged—not too easy, not too hard.

2️⃣ Eliminate distractions.

Turn off notifications, close tabs, and create an environment where deep focus can thrive.

3️⃣ Tap into intrinsic motivation.

Do work that excites you, not just what’s expected of you. Passion fuels flow.

4️⃣ Leverage deep work blocks.

Set aside uninterrupted time to dive into tasks that matter.

5️⃣ Recover like a pro.

Flow isn’t sustainable without rest. Sleep, exercise, and downtime are essential.

Flow isn’t just a performance hack—it’s a lifestyle.

It’s how you unlock your potential and stay ahead in a world where focus is the ultimate currency.

Ready to train your flow muscle?

Let’s talk about it below. 👇

#flowstate #peakperformance #flow #mentaledge #optimalstate #optimalperformance #mentaltraining #antifragile

I don’t like to have regrets nor do I like to wallow.

But if there’s one thing I regret in 2024 — it’s that I held back.

I allowed myself to be driven by fear instead of driven by curiosity in some areas of my life.

We’re gonna change that this year.

And I’m curious to find out what 2025’s got in store for me.

What’s it like for you?

📸 @michaelsomewhere

Focus isn’t just about discipline—it’s about tapping into the right mental state.

Enter: Flow.

Flow isn’t just a high-performance hack; it’s the ultimate brain cheat code.

When you’re in flow, focus becomes effortless, automatic, and deeply enjoyable.

1/ Effortless Immersion

Distractions? They don’t stand a chance.
Flow puts you in a state of total absorption where nothing outside the task matters.
It’s focus without the fight.

2/ Say Goodbye to Self-Doubt

That little voice of self-criticism? Silenced.
Flow quiets the prefrontal cortex (the self-monitoring part of your brain).
The result? Pure, undistracted focus on what matters most.

3/ Energy That Fuels Focus

Flow releases dopamine and endorphins,
the brain’s “feel-good” chemicals.
You’re engaged, energized, and having fun—yes,
fun—while crushing your work.
It’s like hyperfocus with a side of joy.

4/ Crystal-Clear Direction

Flow thrives on clear goals and instant feedback.
You always know what’s next and how you’re doing.
This sharpens your attention, creating an unstoppable feedback loop.

5/ Razor-Sharp Precision

Flow isn’t just focus—it’s smart focus.
Neurochemicals like dopamine and norepinephrine heighten your attention span and problem-solving ability.
Complex challenges become opportunities, not obstacles.

6/ Time Warps (In the Best Way)

Hours can pass in minutes.
Or seconds can stretch into moments of clarity.
This time distortion?
It’s flow helping you reach peak efficiency.

7/ Effortless Focus Without Burnout

Flow optimizes mental energy by filtering out the noise.
Instead of forcing focus, it feels natural and sustainable.
You get more done without draining your tank.

Flow doesn’t just enhance focus—it transforms it.

1. Distractions disappear
2. Motivation amplifies
3. Productivity skyrockets

If you’re pursuing peak performance, flow isn’t optional—it’s essential.

It’s been a wild wild year — merry Christmas friends!! ♥️��🔥

The holidays aren’t supposed to feel like a marathon, but let’s face it—most of us treat them that way.

Between family obligations, year-end deadlines, and shopping lists, it’s easy to feel like you’re sprinting to the finish line of 2024.

So how do you stay grounded, focused, and maybe even joyful when the world feels chaotic?

Here are 3 tactical ways to stay in flow this season:

1. Prioritize Recovery

Rest isn’t a luxury; it’s a performance tool.

Schedule non-negotiable downtime like you would a meeting—whether it’s a quiet morning to yourself, a yoga class, or simply logging off early one evening.

Your best ideas and energy will come from moments of rest, not overwork.

2. Simplify Your To-Dos

You don’t need to conquer a mile-long list every day. Focus on one thing that moves the needle.

Whether it’s wrapping up a key work project or buying a single gift, let small, intentional wins build momentum instead of spreading yourself too thin.

3. Ground Yourself with Micro-Breaks

Short, intentional pauses can do wonders for your clarity. Take a 10-minute walk, try box breathing (inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 4, hold for 4), or use a mindfulness app for a quick reset.

These moments of calm keep you present amidst the chaos.

Here’s a quick story from my own holiday chaos:

Last year, I crammed every day with back-to-back tasks, thinking productivity was the answer.

But by mid-December, I was frazzled and running on empty.

It wasn’t until I started scheduling breaks and simplifying my priorities that I found my flow again—and actually started enjoying the season.

• How are you staying focused and grounded during the holidays?
• Or what’s your biggest challenge this time of year?

words escape me. thanks for the demure photos 📸 @pplsrr 🤣

It’s not an easy process though — but it’s worth digging deep and sorting through what’s inside, what really matters, what’s worth pursuing for, and what doesn’t.

Ask me how I know😅

Some of you have followed me on my journey starting from when I left my home country to travel longterm with no concrete plans nor a sense of direction during my late 20s.

I was aimless.

So I hustled hard so I can feel accomplished.

I was going so fast with unclear direction. As long as I was going — and fast — I felt great.

Clearly, that was dumb but I didn’t know any better.

I wish I had access to mentors and coaches who could’ve saved me from making unnecessary mistakes and failures, but oh well.

So I did lots of experimentations and exposed myself to a bunch of things — in terms of career, lifestyles, and passions.

After all those experimentations comes elimination.

Clarity comes from elimination NOT accumulation.

Then eventually, things got clearer and clearer.

- where I want to live
- what types of relationships I want to have
- what circle I want to build and invest in
- what kind of conversations I want to engage in
- what my daily life would look like
- what my non-negotiables are
- what I’m willing to sacrifice for

And here we are.

2025 is slowly rolling in.

Before the unnecessary busy-ness of the holidays (which I absolutely abhor and refuse to participate in if possible) roll in, I encourage you to take the time to sift through what’s inside.

And if you need help through this process — I know someone who can. Send a DM.

7a+ project. This was gonna be my send attempt but unfortunately it didn’t make it. Super cruxy but lots of rests. Although the cruxy bit is sustained. Need couple more attempts.

Also need to work on the last move before the anchor🤣

Ever have those moments when ideas flow effortlessly and time seems to disappear?

That’s not luck—it’s science.

When you enter a state of flow:

your brain shifts into transient hypofrontality—
a temporary down regulation of the prefrontal cortex
(the part responsible for self-criticism, doubt, and overthinking)

What does that mean for you?

1/ Less mental clutter.
You stop second-guessing every idea.
Your mind is free to explore and experiment.

2/ Heightened productivity.
Your brain shifts from “what if this fails?” to “let’s make it happen.”
There is no mental friction.

3/ Amplified creativity.
Without overanalyzing, you think in new ways, making connections from disparate ideas you wouldn’t normally see.

That’s the magic of transient hypofrontality.

It silences the inner critic and frees up mental space — allowing your best ideas to surface.

You move from force to flow.

The result?

Creative breakthroughs and deep work that feels effortless.

*******

Tired of forcing creativity?

Let’s chat about how flow can unlock your brain’s full potential and build a routine that works.

Let’s go back to the basics of flow state —

• that sweet spot where your brain performs optimally
• a state where peak performance happen

Your brain has two main players when it comes to flow:

1. default mode network (DMN) — that’s your daydreamer
2. executive control network (ECN) — your inner CEO

In flow, this interplay between reduced
DMN activity and heightened ECN activity
is what allows for deep focus and peak performance.

Your brain quiets down all unnecessary noise
so that your full cognitive and physical resources
can be channeled toward achieving
optimal results.

This balance makes flow so powerful
for productivity and creativity—
it allows you to be fully engaged
and “in the zone”
without distraction.

*******

If you want to train your mind to tap into flow
consistently and reliably — esp when it matters most

Send a DM, let’s chat!

What’s your boldest move in pursuit of your North Star?

Flow thrives on risk and boldness—
stepping out of your comfort zone

Why flow supercharges performance

Let’s breakdown:

- what happens in our brains when we’re in flow
- understand its neuroscience

Ever had those moments where you’re so locked in that everything feels effortless?

That’s flow.

And there’s a reason it feels so powerful—your brain is wired for it.

When you’re in flow, a specific cocktail of neurotransmitters floods your brain, amplifying your performance:

1/ dopamine – drives motivation and focus

2/ norepinephrine – heightens attention and alertness

3/ endorphins – reduces pain and stress, making hard tasks feel easier

4/ anandamide – boosts creativity and helps you connect new ideas

5/ serotonin – stabilizes mood, making you feel great while in the zone

*******

This neurochemical cocktail:

- boosts productivity
- helps you learn faster
- solve problems more creatively
- keeps you motivated through tough challenges

Flow isn’t just a mental state—
it’s a high-performance brain state.

And the best part?

It’s trainable.

Leaders and teams who understand the science of flow and create environments to trigger it see massive spikes in performance.

Rock climbing and running have taught me a core truth that helped me as an entrepreneur:

growth happens because of stress NOT despite it.

Climbing is about problem-solving under pressure — each crux, every near fall sharpens your mental edge.

You learn to:

- manage fear
- assess risk
- execute even when you’re drained

Just like what’s required as a founder or entrepreneur.

Running, on the other hand, is a grind.

It’s about pushing through fatigue, quieting self-doubt, and trusting that each step builds resilience.

Both sports teach you:

- how to fail
- adapt
- come back stronger

In climbing, failure pushes you to find new strategies.
Every attempt makes you smarter and more capable.

Running builds a different kind of toughness—
you hit physical and mental walls but learn to push through, discovering hidden reserves of strength.

*******

The lessons from these sports shape how I approach work.

As a flow and peak performance coach, I know high performers need stress and challenge to grow.

Just like a tough climb forces you to recalibrate,
the workplace should challenge you to evolve.

Antifragility is about using ‘chaos’ to build yourself up.

Reframing it and using it as fuel.

Entrepreneurship works the same way.

1. you constantly face the unpredictable — like navigating a new route on the wall.

2. problems either defeat you or force you to find new solutions.

3. the more challenges you face — the sharper and more resilient you become.

Running reminds me that discomfort is temporary, but the strength it creates is lasting.

*******

Whether you’re a climber, runner, or someone who tackles different challenges,

— reflect on how discomfort has shaped you.

What moments pushed you to grow, adapt, and evolve?

How do you embrace discomfort for personal or professional growth?

Share your story—I’d love to hear it!

Haven’t been active on this account for a long time now — as compared to 4 years ago!

This wasn’t really my priority.

But recently, I thought, why not?

I also kinda miss having an outlet where I can share other things beyond just flow coaching stuff.

There’s a lot of talk about personal branding esp on LinkedIn where I spend a lot of time on — because that’s usually where my ideal clients hang out.

For now, I’m not sure how to approach it yet so I’m going to experiment here.

The last time I’ve been more active, I was focused on building my previous project — @podcastmate.co

That was my baby. My first stint at being an entrepreneur and a founder.

I ran it for 3 years and learned some hard lessons throughout that process esp the realization that I was naive and immature.

But oh well, we live and learn.

A lot of the times, the process was hard — it’s like going through fire. But that fire purifies your soul and refines you.

But I’m absolutely not done with being a founder yet. That was just the beginning.

Since then, I’ve lived different lives and tried different things so I can truly find what it is I want to build for the long haul.

And I’d like to think I found it.

And I honestly miss podcasting, creating, recording, directing.

I miss working with talented and creative individuals who also challenge me and make me want to be better.

I thought I’d use this space as an amalgamation of everything that I’m pursuing — flow, music, podcasting, entrepreneurship, rock climbing, and of course Jesus!

Let’s see where this takes us.

Revamping my pitch deck for @chasingflowstate as I rewatch High Fidelity @highfidelityonhulu for the 5th time.

This series is based on the original movie that was in the late 90s with John Kusack.

But I love this even more because obvs Zoe Kravitz is there.

Always loved their style of storytelling, the aesthetics, color grading, the cinematic feels, retro vibes, and soundtracks with vinyl and 60s sounds! So tasteful.

It inspires me a lot — to create, to produce, to tell stories. To do things just because I love doing them. The doing is the reward in itself. Doing things without agenda.

A letter to myself when I’m uninspired

You never really know what to do in the beginning. Just start. Even when you don’t know. Just start. Even when you’re lost, just keep going. Even when you cannot focus, just keep going. Keep going. Keep moving. Do not get stuck. I repeat, do not get stuck. Or at least, do not let yourself get stuck.

Don’t waste your life, your days, your minutes, your seconds. Do even the littlest things that can get you to move forward. Being stuck is the worst position to be in. Move, you are not a tree. Move. Get stuff done. Get up and go.

Write, write, write. Write your heart out. Even when you don’t know what to say. Let the words come to you. Let your fingers type without thinking. Sometimes, it’s all the thinking we do that let’s us get stuck. It’s our own thinking that gets in the way of our progess.

Even when you don’t know, move. Movement, action, reach out. Write daily, write often, write relentlessly. Even when you feel like you have nothing to say, write it all out. You will be surprised what comes out. Something buried so deep within your chest gets excavated and comes to surface because you let your fingers type and you let go of this need to control your thoughts and emotions.

Get it on paper. Write, write, write until inspiration comes. It’s not going to be easy in the beginning but once you build momentum, you’ll see.

You’ll see why you had to go through that.

You have to fight for inspiration. You have to seek it out intentionally. You have to overcome your negative emotions. You have to conquer them. You have to conquer yourself.

You can’t trust yourself all the time. But you can trust that all things work together your your good, just like what He has promised.

So go, do, get things done, do hard things.

Do Hard Things - Conquer yourself - and Do Hard Things.

So good to be able to sing again — just another way for me to get into flow state.

“The best way to verify that you are alive is by checking if you like variations. Remember that food would not have a taste if it were not for hunger; results are meaningless without effort, joy without sadness, convictions without uncertainty, and an ethical life isn’t so when stripped of personal risks.”

Here’s some oldie karaoke video for you back in 2021 May. Man I can’t believe it, time flies so damn fast. And now it’s 2024. What happened during those years? What were you doing? I keep going through archives and I’m gonna keep going through them and prolly post some old karaoke vids just cause I think it’s fun.

How’d you keep yourself sane during those years?

vibes ☀️ absolutely missing chiang mai rn

I’d rather go blind ~

I’ve always loved singing.

I think it’s the most honest way for me to express myself. And as I go through my archives, some memories where I was playing with a band, just made me miss it so much.

Chasing flow state is a way of life
a world view
an approach to life.

It’s about living a life of depth and meaning.

It’s about pursuing things that bring joy and satisfaction

about seeking challenges that stretch you

about living a life of passion and adventure

of courage and boldness.

It’s about intentionally designing a life that makes flow state inevitable.

It’s about consistently finding flow and working towards self-actualization (according to God’s will).

because life itself can be lived like art ~

GROUNDED. According to Merriam, it means mentally and emotionally stable: admirably sensible, realistic, unpretentious.

As I was doing my usual time of reflection and contemplation reviewing the year that has been, this word spoke to me so strongly.

I feel like for the past 4 years I have been seeking the thrill, the roller coaster of emotions, the mountaintop highs and the valley lows (not that I sought them out, but life’s like that).

I’m grateful and humbled for all the experiences that I’ve had.

This time, I want things to be different.

Because no matter how high the “towers” we build for ourselves are, if those towers are built on a sand and not on solid ground — when storms come, they will fall apart.

This time, we dig deep.

We anchor ourselves on solid ground and we will not be shaken.

So that regardless of how far or how high we go in life, and how strong the winds and storms are — we remain grounded, anchored, and firm.

Just sharing. Whenever you’re ready, I’ll be here.

life lately💛✨

tons of yoga and a tinge of climbing here and there but it’s never enough climbing.

I don’t post so much on here anymore because I honestly don’t know what to post when most of what I do is just yoga, climbing, and working.

So here’s a hodgepodge of what I’ve been up to lately — which doesn’t really add value to your life. But oh well.

PMR Diaries is a narrative podcast about a solo founder’s journey, my journey, through entrepreneurship and the highs and lows that come along with it.

And we’re giving it a fresh look specifically the PMR Diaries vertical because why not?

It’s 2023.

The last time we published an episode was Aug 2022 because after that, I’ve focused on other aspects in my life and other projects that I wanted to give attention to.

But since then, there have been multiple plot twists in my entrepreneurial journey that I’d like to share, some aspects that I think a lot of us can learn from.

One of them is — Murphy’s Second Law which I talked about in my previous post.

It’s that “nothing is as easy as it seems”.

It has been the overarching lesson in my second year as a founder.

That means, in general, we gotta be prepared to put in 10x effort and dedication in the pursuit of something we love, something we hold dear, that dream we want to materialize.

Because it’s always going to take more than we think it would.

Just like building a company and starting a narrative podcast about building a company😎

If you want to listen to the previous season, head on over to Spotify and type in PMR Diaries.

Or click on the link in bio.

And I promise you, the second season will be worth waiting for.

FLOW BENEFITS

HERE'S HOW WE APPROACH IT

1. Flow as an art, not just a science Flow isn’t a hack; it’s a way of moving through life. We don’t just optimize performance; we design a way of being where excellence feels natural.

2. Refinement over force More pressure isn't the answer. Refinement is. We strip away inefficiencies, remove resistance, and sharpen instincts until high performance feels inevitable.

You don’t need to grind harder—you need to make mastery effortless.

This is the essence of effortlessness—where movement, thought, and execution are so precise that nothing is wasted.

​ ​ 3. Playfulness and exploration

Flow thrives on curiosity, lightness, and experimentation. If you’re not enjoying the process, you’re doing it wrong.

​

We tune into your intrinsic motivation and make flow a natural, repeatable experience rather than a moment you stumble upon.

​

High performance will feel like a dance not a checklist. 4. Elegance in execution ​

You're don't rush anything yet you're always on time. That's how we approach performance—smooth, precise, and effective.

​

You’ll learn to achieve more by doing less not through laziness but through clarity, control, and presence.

​

We remove all unnecessary friction so that every action carries weight and every movement matters.

​

5. The long game: sustainable, reliable, repeatable flow

​

Hustle​ culture is unsustainable. True high performers play the long game.

We create a rhythm that keeps you sharp, engaged, and performing at your peak—without burnout.

This isn’t about momentary success—it’s about designing a life that makes flow inevitable.
