Alan Chikin Chow ·  Creating a Bigger Impact Through Entertainment

“My advice for my old self: just suffer for a little bit, cut it off, and continue moving cause it's all about the pursuit and all about the journey. If you really love your craft, then the things that will hurt, they definitely will hurt. They probably hurt even more because you love it so much. But if you really love what you do, then you'll keep going and keep pursuing it.”
