A Fortune Cookie Prophecy

When I was a struggling MBA student many years ago, I opened a fortune cookie with the following inscription:

“Nothing in the world is accomplished without passion.”

I put it into my wallet, and I saved it. To this day, it is the only fortune cookie message that I have ever saved. The photo below is of ONE Global HQ in 2013.

Thank you to Team ONE, the greatest sports media team on the planet, and our incredible athletes, the greatest martial artists on Earth, for pouring your hearts and souls into ONE Championship, and making us Asia’s largest global sports media property in history.

Our story has only begun.
