You don't change,Lives change you


Changes might sound terrifying to you, especially when you are used to being in your own comfort zone. But, change is the only constant in life.

I just wanna be the best of me
Even though sometimes, we might disagree
So that I can be the best for you
That's all I wanna do

The current worldwide pandemic is the greatest example at this moment, if not the worst. We are forced to make some changes in our daily lifestyles to accustom to the situation we face right now. We are staying at home when we should be out there working or studying. We are staying at home when we should be enjoying the sunset after a long walk with our loved ones. We are staying at home because we need to be “there” to help our frontliners fighting against the virus.

Before this whole panic happened, I guess a lot of people were very comfortable in their current states. I do not mean that it was actually a bad thing. Being happy and content about your life is something I wouldn’t ask more for you. I am truly ecstatic if anyone would feel like that. You are GOOD!

However, choosing not to improve or make a greater change for your life is something I disagree upon. Hear me out first. For example, you have a great life where you have your partner, your kid and your parents underneath a sweet home with your uproaring, steady career. I am happy for you. You are thankful and always do your best to love the people around you and cherish them wholeheartedly. But, I will encourage you to do something else to “sparkle” your contented life. Not like I ask you to go fight a bull or jump from a cliff without any protection gears. I am sincerely asking you to try something, because life is full of unknowns. Probably increase the size of your company by indulging to other fields? Hire more talent that is out of your league? Learn personal branding? This is the way to deal with this evolving world. We have to keep changing so that we will evolve too. 

World is limitless. Knowledge is boundless. Change is inevitable. Growth is optional. You are going through changes, but it doesn’t mean YOU will change. Uphold your strength. Get rid of your weaknesses. Explore a new side of you. Kill off the bad-thi-ria!!!

Mental Health 0.1: Are you an Impostor among Yourselves?

  Disclaimer: This post is not related to the current trending game: Among Us, at all. (how I wish it is…). Okay. Back to the topic:           “Man, you don’t DESERVE all the applause!” “C’mon you are not even THERE yet!” Another voice comes in: “Nah, you just get LUCKY only! Do you really think this is good ENOUGH?”           Sometimes, all these voices come from people around you, but most of the time it comes from the voices within yourself. If you feel that way after managing to finish a task or achieve something, I guess you get a little bit of impostor syndrome.           Imposter syndrome means the lack of affirmation of yourself after able to achieve something or complete a work by proven facts. You view your own success as being someone’s work. You view yourself of being lucky to be able to get a new job. You do not validate your o...

What's scarier than you do the same thing over and over but you are still doing it

  If you are born and raised from an Asian family, I am sure that 99.8% of you had been forced to attend some sorts of extra classes or advancement courses to “improve” ourselves while we were young (0.02% were probably crying their eyeballs out to get their getaway card). There is a Malay saying: “ Melentur buluh biarlah dari rebungnya .”, which means that learning in a tender younger age is the best way to cultivate and nourish skills! It’s especially applicable for Asian’s KIASU personality or more specifically Chinese people???           I was definitely not excluded. I was sent to swimming lesson for my mom stating that drowning was very possible in this world covered of around 71% water. Hence, my mom sent every one of us siblings to learn swimming in a very early ages. Other than that, art class and taekwondo class since I was in primary school were attended too.           Truthfully, I am not here to ...

Your Priority is not His Priority

There are 2 baskets on the table. You could only choose the contents inside one of the baskets. You can´t have both. One contains 1,000,000,000 US dollars cheque. One contains a Ticket to anywhere you want in this world in unlimited times. Which one would you choose ? It’s a 50/50 choices. Some would choose the million dollars, or some would choose the freedom to go anywhere (especially in this critically freedom-restricted timing). There’s nothing wrong choosing whichever because everyone has their own preference, hence priorities are different among each other.           Priorities are a ranking people tend to have or subconsciously decide on when facing a dilemma between both options that inevitably can’t be enjoyed together. When you have a different goal than your aspiring friend, you can’t be shameful to admit that you want to be a superhero but not an engineer that all your friends want to be. You just have different priorities. ...
