Every Sunday morning, we feature a one-on-one Q&A with Jun, our resident curator, exploring the connection between Zen and architecture.
What advice would you give to young entrepreneurs interested in merging spirituality and innovation?
My advice to young entrepreneurs looking to blend spirituality and innovation is:
- stay true to your core values and let them steer your creative process. Embrace a holistic approach that balances both technological advancements and the human element of your ventures.
- Focus on building solutions that enhance the well-being of individuals and communities. Cultivate mindfulness and intentionality in your work, ensuring that your innovations create value for those around you and by extension to society. It’s good karma. And those values you created for others will one day - sooner or later - come back to you.
- Stay curious and open to learning, and prioritize authenticity in everything you do. By doing so, you can create meaningful and impactful businesses that resonate with users on a deeper level. Sometimes the most spiritual ideas can be found in art, design, engineering, last but not least, the customers you serve.
