Jonathan Lee
What I’m listening to
Jonathan Lee is a Taiwanese musician and producer regarded as one of the most influential and respected figures in the world of Mandopop music. He has written more than 300 songs to date, either sung by himself or the over 70 artists he has worked with. “Recently, my vocal coach introduced me to Jonathan Lee’s The Price of Love. Not only is it a challenging song to sing, but its lyrics are meaningful and insightful. I think that compared to many contemporary Cantonese love songs, the lyrics of this Mandarin song are more representative of an experienced life journey,” says Wu.

I recently read Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones. As suggested by its title, the author shares systematic methods to build good habits and let go of bad ones in our daily lives. The four main principles to form a good habit are: make it obvious, make it attractive, make it easy and make it satisfying. The book is straightforward, well-organized and easy to follow as there are practical steps provided. I would highly recommend this to those who have been struggling to make a change in their lives.
