Ask And You Will Receive

General, Motivation & Inspiration, Personal Thoughts & Ideas

For those of you who don’t know yet (and weren’t following me on Twitter), I’m currently starting a new charity with a friend of mine called RevoCreativity. It’s going to be more of a local project here in Hong Kong (unlike my other sites which are targeted to USA) and we’re basically going to hold concerts and events, sell tickets and get sponsors for it for charity, and promote art and music etc.

Personally, I’m pretty excited about this as this is just another example of following your passion and giving back to society. I’ve been an artist pretty much since I was a little kid and won numerous art competitions; I’ve also been playing the piano since I was 6.

Anyways, today, we met up with Philip, who is a local graphics designer. We were suppose to hire him and pay him money to help us create the logo for our charity/website. I was planning to just outsource the design works to a graphics designer on the internet but I guess it’s better to meet them in person :)

We’ve told them our plan, what we were going to do etc. I guess he was extremely touched by our stories and the fact that we were just two 16 year olds trying to make a difference, and he ended up doing the logo design for us for free.

Just goes to show that when you ask, you will receive. People will be willing to help you out for free if you have a good STORY (just like how I got onto the frontpage of Apple Daily)
