No Idea What I’m Doing But F*ck It

No Idea What I’m Doing But F*ck It

by Ron Lim

no idea
where I want to be
but I will keep going.

Following the success of his Instagram account @ronwritings, Ron Lim unleashed his first poetry book, No Idea What I’m Doing But F*ck It. This second edition, published by Thought Catalog Books, is an international re-introduction of Ron’s previously self-published debut in a lovely new package complete with additional poems and an updated author’s note.

In No Idea What I’m Doing But F*ck It, Ron documents the process of his inner and outer journey of self-discovery. This journey involved awakening to the fact that he wanted more out of life, the internal struggle he faced while convincing himself to leave the only home he knew, and eventually departing his comfort zone by buying a one-way plane ticket. This collection of prose explores the obstacles we must face and figure out for ourselves, the discovery of our true purpose, and the realization that many things in life are more straightforward than we imagine them to be, despite how unnecessarily complicated we make them.

Ron Lim

At the age of 22, Ron packed his bags and bought a one-way ticket out of the place he lived in his entire life.

Thinking back, “I remember when I was on the plane by myself, leaving for the first time with no destination in mind, there was no fear. It felt strangely… liberating. And it was in those few starting hours of my journey that I already knew that I’ve made the right choice,” he said.

“Time flies when you’re on the road. All you do is try to live in the moment and focus on the next thing, and before you know it… years have passed, and you have come a long way”.

While on the road, Ron found inspiration in his journey and started documenting his thoughts publicly on Instagram. It was also during this time that he found an interest in writing, and in 2020, he started a separate account solely dedicated to posting his writings – @ronwritings.
