Lesson from ascending Mount Kinabalu

So thrilled to be at the top of the world at Mount Kinabalu. At over 4 thousand metre (or 13 thousand feet) with the girl of my dream, my wife of 19 years is really something.

One key lesson about ascending a mountain:

We can only take one step at a time. When moving so high up a mountain, it's not about how fast you go but how our body can acclimatise so that altitude sickness don't set in. So slow and steady wins the day.
When we move up in our online business journey, take it slow so that we can acclimatise.
Every part of the journey gives us different experience and learning.

It does take time but if we keep taking small steps forward, we will get there.
