Plan to Fail: Recent Episodes
King Lau
So how do you determine what success looks like to you? Do you base it on the results and outcomes, or what you learned along the way?
You see, society has conditioned us to tie success to an outcome. But the truth is, failure is an essential part of success. The faster you fail, the faster you will succeed.
So the real question is, how can we redefine our relationship with not just failure, but with success as well?
Welcome to the Plan to Fail Podcast. In this show, join King Lau, serial entrepreneur, ex-financial advisor, and university dropout as he explores the answers that will allow you to live a life that is true to yourself, and clarity in the direction you are going.
You will hear inspirational stories of personal successes and failures, interviews with established entrepreneurs worldwide, and resources to equip you on your journey. Join us as we discuss topics such as mindset, entrepreneurship, and much more! You’ll be able to reprogram your mind for true success and gain the skill set you need to not just earn money doing things you love, but find fulfilment in everything you do.
How do you react when things don't go according to plan?
While most people tend to react negatively towards such situations, we all actually have the power to choose how we respond to every situation or challenge we face. So the real question is, how do we start to harness the power of choice we all hold?

Entrepreneurs are wild urban creatures that find joy in breaking all societal constraints and openly rebel against the status quo. They have a reputation for being savage, greedy, and egotistical. If you ever encounter one in the wild, be sure to dodge their handshake, slap away their multiple attempts at handing you a business card, and scream and run as fast as you can in the opposite direction.
