Should we focus more on the process than the result?

I think some of my friends share with me the ethical points of view, to see things as its result rather than the process of achieving it, and the other to see the process of arriving at the result is more important than the result itself. For me, I think I relate to the latterContinue reading “Should we focus more on the process than the result?”

Should you keep blaming the pandemic for your failure?

For us to face the crisis altogether, maybe it is easier to feel compassionate towards other and be able to understand struggle, as we also go through the hardship ourselves too. But when they say “Misery love company”, it’s not incorrect. Being a bit more critical about myself, I think that I spent way tooContinue reading “Should you keep blaming the pandemic for your failure?”

Time travel

Isn’t rewatching video and seeing old photo a way of time travel? You are putting yourself in a past tense perspectives, and somehow, through the art of filming and directing, you, as an audience, could feel the action, the narration, the emotion, and the tension that were there in between the scenes. Nostalgia. Anyway hereContinue reading “Time travel”

Yes, I’m drinking detox

It’s weird that I’m drinking this detox. It’s just cool water with some slides of lime and chia seeds. It wasn’t because I had recently seen any post about it on social media, but it happened that I enjoyed the taste of this cup of lime water they had in a ramen shop. I addedContinue reading “Yes, I’m drinking detox”

Interesting question that I came across the Internet today (aka. Quora). It’s funny to me that we are so obsessed with failure and success these days, I mean, I’m not excluding myself. This question seems so deep and thought provocative, but it has such incongruity that makes me a bit uncomfortable (not to the pointContinue reading “Does one become successful at failure by giving up?”

I think I need to rewatch this video daily…it’s Youtuber Thomas Brag from Yes Theory sharing about the up and down side of being in a situation like this. Happy that I was able to find this. Hopefully rejoin the Yes Fam.

Things I learn stepping away from Instagram

I felt like I’m in control of my emotion more. I could see the tendency of being anxious the moment I opened the app. Afterall, it’s a terrible idea and I don’t want to handle it. I felt like I can deliberately do things better. I spend time connect to people offline, face to face.Continue reading “Things I learn stepping away from Instagram”

Take a break

My week was finally done. I’m now home. Back to this quiet town. So quiet, I thought I was in another dimension, in another world. I thought it would be so much more exciting. Yet, everything stay indifferent, as expected as before. Not so much of a surprise. My parents are spending much time readingContinue reading “Take a break”

Reflection time

I was sad, and bored, and feeling childish, helpless and ulterly purposeless. So I tried to imagine that I was a protagonist in a cliche superhero movie. But then that dream far short when reality hits. Who do I want to be, at the age of 20? I called Ashley not so long ago andContinue reading “Reflection time”
