#033: This is part 2 of a conversation with Michael Wu! He's a co-host of the Badass Asian Dudes Podcast / Community and software engineer at Stripe. Taiwanese-American brother from Silicon Valley who went to fulfill his dreams of living and working in Japan, learning the language and eating all the sushi he can find. Cooking dope food, throwing dope parties, and living the dream.
In part 2, we talk about:
- His career path as to how he got working at Stripe
- On being in the right place at the right time, while working hard and being a good person
- Not being naive about the challenges or dark sides of living in another country
- Blowing people’s minds by bringing magic to personal experiences for yourself and others
- Not letting the feeling of being treated as a foreigner get to you and the importance of building your own tribe
- The most difficult moments of our lives when we lose our sense of identity
- The importance of reaching out to others and being a good person along the way
Quotes:
- "When you think it’s the end of the world, it’s not the end of the world."
- "Don’t make suffering worse than it is."
- "It’s okay to be lost, but you should be figuring out ways to get unlost."
- "Don’t compromise your own ethics to get the things you want."
