Chin-Ning Chu

A successful life is one that is lived through understanding and pursuing one's own path, not chasing after the dreams of others.

In spite of your fear, do what you have to do.

There's a whole bunch of unfinished stuff. Then I've got books of lyrics. I find it frustrating to finish a song and not be able to record it... so I don't write a million songs.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
