Do You Feel Like A Failure? 【你觉得你失败吗?】｜ R U OKAY 【你OK吗?】 

I promise to improve my chinese. - John from 5pm

i am rooting for Ryan. Really hope he finds true friends whom he finds trustworthy enough to confide in. Ryan, you probably won't see this message but know that there are people out there rooting for you.

The owner splitting money part which Jonathan mentioned is really insightful! Please share more of such issues, I think it will help all of us to better understand the plights business owners have

Failure is part of life. Ups and downs. The path is never smooth. On surface one may feel ok, deep down is the guilt of failure that slowly eats up one life, the will to change and improve is constantly there. Is oneself to stand up and take it step at a time.

Honestly this podcast is more real compared to my daily ketchup. I felt the context is more raw and conversation is more Honest Keep up and keep it real👍

10:51 "I almost want to be alone. But alone 的时候 I feel very alone" It's like you rather be alone than be with the wrong kind of friends/ friends that don't vibe with you. I feel that. relatable.

Mayidou is quite a good host where he will ensure he stands neutral to others opinions and also try to direct his 嘉宾 back to the topic. Nice episode! Good setting as well

Entrepreneurship is a lonely journey. Last year Oct 2022, i made a breakthrough by heading over to bangkok alone to open a restaurant (that can house about 200 pax). But it failed, and i am selling it next week as i am running out of $$$. My life turned upside down. I can't save my staffs and i can't give them a better life as i promised. i Failed. And the only person that i can really talk to about this disappointment was me, myself & I. Because no one around me would understand this uncomfortable process of trying to be an entrepreneur. Thus, it was really a very very lonely journey.

This is a very comforting talk for young entrepreneurs. Thank you!

在NOC我很欣赏Ryan,希望Ryan可以多像这样的节目表达自己的想法。加油Ryan相信你未来会很美好👍

if someone can control & tell you what to wear , when to work and how to behave your whole life , you have failed and feel miserable at times. Time freedom , financial freedom & a healthy body are the answers to happiness .

you need to find people with the same frequency in order to reduce that loneliness. More often than never, people would not understand you or truth, no one cares. You need to be strong internally, give yourself the validation you need, build on your confidence and restart. Everything is a lesson for the future, everything is going to be ok.

eh ryan... bro you got that self-pitying/inferiority complex/narcissistic personality thing leh. you got your loyal friends all around you - already said bryan. then you still self-pity. self-pity is a very unattractive trait. got to fix this personality trait of yours. don't think about how your life sucks, but how you can change the way you think about it. being grateful, SHOWING gratitude. also, change the mindset that relationships are transactional - they are NOT. you cannot give someone and expect them to return it. people can feel indebted to you, but they won't like you - it is an obligation to them, and no one wants that. if you want people to like you, you must be likeable, full stop.

In my opinion, attempting something and falling short is not a failure, but rather a valuable learning experience. It's those who incessantly talk without taking action and refuse to try who truly fail.

Halfway turned into a regular Daily ketchup podcast with the English hahaha. Enjoyed it nonetheless

Can we request for English Subtitles?

Have to learn to be contented with what you have,. This is when one will feel happy. Friends are not a matter of numbers. Not number of years of number of friends and invitations. Friends and family are those who stay by you when you are happy or sad. But at the end of the day, one must be contented in order to be happy. If you dont open yourself up, you will always feel not understood or repressed. Open up your heart and share with those closest to you. You will feel lighter. The support system will naturally fall into place. Jiayou and be happy!

Ryan 不要放弃，还有很多粉丝会支持你💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

这个podcast very real... keep it up

Try to be more positive bros, we need to be contented with what we have, not what we lack. You have family/spouse/partner and still relatively healthy, these are things are that cannot be taken for granted as well. Fight on and all the best!

现在的人都很容易分开或离婚，因为没有真爱，那是需要的爱，他们认为彼此能给到对方所需要就是爱，那是爱自己，但对方给不到就分开。 真爱是无论如何对方有什么处境，双方都会一起面对，一起享福，一起走到老，不会舍弃对方，真爱也不可能会有暴力行为。 爱是没理由的，只要有保护，有担心就是爱。

The friends that were lost were never friends in the first place.

一直都支持Ryan 。一直觉得他是受害者。。Sylvia 真的我很讨厌。

Some time I question myself am I successful in life, now I know I might not be.. Always having thought on why am I sticking with my 9 - 5 job, though it pays me quite a decent amount but I've never satisfied and I am not happy.. what strikes me the most is mayiduo questioning about if in life you have nothing to loose, what is the thing that you cannot loose, my 1st thought is music and my ability to sing.. ohh wow... I guess I can now start to explore and try to achieve a more successful and meaningful life..

Could I suggest to put English subtitles for this series? It helps bananas like me learn a bit more by listening and reading.

希望尔后还会陆续的邀请同道之人出来分享他们的故事！这集蛮精彩的。

really a good podcast.. make me learn how to be a better boss. 😂 please continue to post more episodes on any other topics too. looking fwd to watch. 😊👍🏻👍🏻

Glad there's a branch out to reach mandarin speaking audiences! Do think that it would be good if you can have more of a mix of fluent speakers tho cause the constant help in translation is abit kang kor to listen to in a long form podcast 😅😅 希望這個企劃可以成功喔 👍

Ryan past experience with Sylvia really destroyed him and makes him a bad guy. It will takes time to heal and people will slowly forget.

Its so weird to see jon speaking mandarin after watching so many episodes of the daily ketchup show. 🤣

人得自个儿成全自个儿, 对不起自己就是失败。A person himself must grant upon himself, else if a person who has become sorry for a person himself, he has become a failure.

Contented 知足 is the key to happiness which also can be defined as successful.

this show got promise

Thank you guys for making me to go into deep thoughts. Love the podcast

失败 。 因为我是 spider man

Great podcast Can invite simonboi? He confirm sibei funny one

actually, one of the best episodes , very honest raw truths , no pretense 😊

As a introvert, this feels like i am hanging out with my extrovert friends having conversations and literally sometimes is really funny, drama and true. Last time.

I like mayiduo! Anyway Ryan was very honest not fake! That’s a plus point

After the saga, I like Ryan for his honesty. Hope he and his team have a very successful business in the future.

What is the definition of successful? Let's be real, who would'nt want money but at the same time what do you want in life and what kind of lifestyle do you seek? Some people can be happy earning 3k a month, have good food once awhile and have all the time in the world to do whatever they want. In my opinion, at the end of the day you're living your life for yourself, don't let the society and people's judgment dictate how you should live. Happiness is the most important thing and it's irreplacable, If you're feeling happy everyday then that's successful IMO.

I don’t understand why Ryan was being ostracised. He was the one operating the business and working with his staff.

Wait. Didn't Ryan has a gf..... So having a gf is still a failure ay

If wanna rebuild image maybe stop dwelling on the past and move on? Why keep associating yourself with lawsuits, saga, etc?

but the problem is when ever someone say 'i want to work a job that makes me happy but whenever i tell that to someone they just laugh because in this world is like u cant fking afford shit with a 2k salary a month and imagine in singapore everything is paper then u wan find job is paper unless is jobs that needs experience

Failure and success is subjective. As long as you wake up with a smile , you’re successful than millionaires who woke up feeling empty and “lonely”.

Great discussion about Entrepreneurship and Business! Appreciate the sharing from all bosses 👍

Honestly really feel for Ryan. I totally know how he feels because I’ve been there (not the working part). It sucks to have no one to talk to/hang out with. People who you thought were your friends will end up turning their backs against you once you mess up. Sad reality of life

John is really good, has been watching him since you make videos with Dew back then!

Failure is when nobody will miss you when you pass away in this world.. Success is when you leave a legacy or make an impact on others in this world.

Lmao Char talking about QMAO

I think Ryan is asking for too much. In many of our eyes, he is considered successful. He is not letting go of achieving success. Its always "oh, the grass is greener on other side". Like that don't start company la, u can work for other mnc company. Perhaps u will be happier. Manage your expectations

Looking forward to more!! Funny cast n I love the honesty and openness. Cracked me up a few times cos of some gestures or stuff they said. Keep the insights coming, please! ❤

I really think there's something wrong with Ryan Tan character. If not, he won't have so many friends left him during the saga

失敗的定義在於個人。。不必理會任何人。。他們並不會對你的人生負責。。自己明白自己在幹嘛就好！

Better have subtitles Even thou i know mandarin But sometimes need subtitle to support my hearing issue

As an entrepreneur, when I heard what John said is super super relatable. Entrepreneur is really lonely, many a times when you look back, you actually miss the day where you just started up, everyone in the company have the common goals, although we don’t have much but we all are happy. But when business start to grow, many will feel that as a boss as a leader we start to change. We no longer the same, but at the same time many forgot that we got to be responsible to everyone in the company, certain action and decision is needed to be done. We unable to please everyone, we just need to do what is right for the company. Just want to say appreciate for this episode, suddenly feel that I’m not alone. Jia you to all the entrepreneur, is not easy but you had tried ur best.

Life as a boss really different as compared to a worker. Can sense Ryan's difficulty.

*CONGRATS* on the new channel! 🥳🎉 I like “Ah Lian” the most 😂 Best if come with chinese subtitle pls! Easier to watch when outside, or when u can’t catch the word 😉❤️

my company only know how to 画大饼 but no action, 2 years no bonus at all... as much as i want to work for my boss and the company, salary is my worrying point, as my pay is below 25% quadrant of my role market.. how ? any advise?

Curious if the guy he is talking about is aiken

Good episode. Liked and subscribed!

Can add captions options?(autogenerated enough), my chinese half past 6 de. Tq

我现在也是在困难时期，也是自己太过善良😢 听了你们正能量的话，我不觉得自己失败❤

一个人只有内心强大到可以不在乎外界的眼光才能活出自我，活出更多的可能性。人生需要的不多，只是要求的太多。

你們的失敗和孤單不算什麼，uncle的遭遇都是怪自己，走了王雷一樣的路20年，老婆都更朋友出虧，離婚了十多年孩子2個跟我，家人不再新加坡，親人朋友肯定跑遠遠，現在孩子長大了都有自己的世界，債雖然還完了，人生到50了，沒什麼錢還要日夜開grab，這才是孤單。這才是失敗。所以和王雷一樣的話，千萬別賭，千萬別借錢賭，或乾乾投資風險很高的。現在唯有會自動聯絡做朋友的都是阿隆或教會😅，但人生經過那麼多，答案還是從排斥到不得不信上帝的話，他是真正存在的，是我們自己不願接受。大家加油吧！人生短暫！好好珍惜，不必勉強，愛心最重要。真正不會放棄我們的是家人和耶穌。

中文的podcast很特别 订阅了

Most important must have 贵人 (hope I've spelt correctly). Without this, no matter how hard you work also no use.

I hope someone can advise me.. I really have no expectation no direction leh.. I know money is impt but I don’t see money very impt. I only want to relax and when I feel like going out or buy something I have the money to spend can liao.. I only know I wanna form a family but I have no idea how to really find someone to like me, I don’t dare to open my heart to someone 100%. I feel my life is very contradicting and it stops me from progressing.. I’m in deep shit..

我喜欢John Tan 的节目邀请很多PAP 人上节目。节目也得到赞助。也赚大钱

还有勇气去面对， 就不算是失败。加油！

95% of lost friends make up the 5% of quality friends and in fact, that 95% of lost will bring more quality friends. In order to gain, we must lose. 100% is already filled, thats why somethings are spilled not within our control.

Who's the 33yo magician

阿弥陀佛，这节目很好。继续下去。

it's always very hard to have the best of both worlds. when you have money, you hardly have friends, when you have friends and family, you may not earn as much. i guess being contented is really one thing we should try to adapt. ❤

i totally can relate to Ryan and im in my late 40s, my advice to him is, don't put too much time on frds, love your family and love ones more.

Ryan: can't talk to my staff about my problems because it'll affect their confidence Also Ryan: openly announcing his problems on this platform to the whole wide world 😂🤷‍♂️

TDK should interview mayiduo

Nice to watch!

Ryan failed because of arrogance. It went into his head.

HUAT AH

wo lai sarpok (typed in han yu pin yin so john can understand)

说的是Q Mao??😂😂

Is the $15k friend dee kosh? Just speculating

I love this podcast!! Good job Mayiduo and friends :) Jiayou Ryan!!

Everyone is lonely in a certain way...that's why I kinda enjoyed covid...everyone is eating alone...just like me

Whatever John say is so relatable!!! Well articulated!!!

Seems like the reason for their loneliness is a need to be satisfied. Yet there is a lack of trust in the humanity in general to fulfill your need. Don’t forget there’s always option to seek help from professional therapist to share about your problems. Don’t think that it’s a superficial bonding which doesn’t allow you to form any real connection with other human. Or that it’s a waste of money. With the help of professionally trained therapist, he/she would guide you to discover your inner self. From there it allows you to have proper connection and compassion with yourself. When you have more trust in yourself, it will then allow you to see kindness in other humans. Please stop going round circles feeling trapped. Get help.

I know who you refer to. 捲毛😂😂😂 I saw him irl. He really look sad 😢

good show🎉

im also owner of a business, it took me like 1 yr to learn the boundaries of staff and boss, since im younger than most of my staffs also. we understand that our staffs sometimes wna geng, but when we call them out they make huge fuss. its rlyyy hard la

So he lost the case?

just found this podcast, love it!! jiayou guys, please keep it real like this, looking forward to more insights from entrepreneurs!

Oh my gosh. I feel like I know who is the magician. Lol

终结可以问John 你ok吗？哈哈哈

take care and all the best .. be strong, people look up to you bro Ryan. It's ok to be alone, than to be surrounded by fake people

继续加油 新加坡需要更多这类型的节目

❤this content, it awesome. This open up for audience to give feedback to improve and progress in the future.
