I was a Hong Kong National Rowing Team. However, I didn’t go to the Olympic Games. I didn’t go to the Asian Games. Because I was not qualified. I was too weak even I thought I was the hardest worker at the gym. The dream sometimes never happens in your life.
But so what? I won the INBF Bodybuilding Overall Championships and Olympiclifting Masters 85kg class Champion in 2018, and represented Canada to participate in Pan American & Canadian Masters Champions in 2018. #hkathlete #香港運動員
Obviously, I didn’t make any $$ and reputation like the rock, but I earned respect from my trainees.

Thank you universe for this perspective and reminder 💫
Not an easy concept to process, but the idea that sometimes our biggest and most important dreams that DON’T COME TRUE are often times the BEST THING that never happened.
I’m shooting JUNGLE CRUISE now and right before I get called to set, I look up and see a CFL (Canadian Football League) game on my TV.
I do a double take and realize that’s the same field I played on when I played in the CFL. I do a triple take and see the very man who coached and mentored me and ultimately had to cut me from the team, Wally Buono who is now head coach and GM of the BC LIONS in Vancouver.
For years of playing ball, I was always the “hardest worker in the room” and did everything I could to make the CFL and then hopefully, make it to the NFL where I dreamed of having an All Pro Football career.
Instead, I was cut from the team, told I wasn’t good enough - and sent home with $7 bucks to my name.
After years of blood, sweat, guts and tears, my dream was over.
Fell into depression, didn’t know what to do or where to turn. Eventually, I picked myself back up again, said fuck this and refocused and committed to another long journey.
The rest is history.
I’ve been there, so I encourage you to keep working hard and remember that sometimes our dreams that don’t come true, can ultimately become the best thing that never happened.
