A good friend of mine told me a good advice recently, “Sometimes, something just happened to help us to make decision” I’ll share the story on Thursday, but I’m curious to know what you think about it?

some of the simple things which are inspiring
Inspiration is..
To you, what is inspiration? Do you think you are an inspiring people? How do you inspire people? Or maybe inspire yourself? Do you think it’s important to be inspired? Have you ever thought of those questions? I have. I leave some of the questions for you to answer. I’ll start mine on how do you inspire others. I have 4 points I want to tell:
Will you dive with head first?
I met one of my university senior on last weekend. He is a successful entrepreneur, to my opinion, and he showed me some of his works while we were chatting. Casually I asked him, on being entrepreneur in such young age. Here are some points that stayed in my mind: 1. There is no shortcut There will be some hills to conquer at certain point of our life. 2. Keep your idealism for yourself. Some people may not appreciate your […]
Pay the price
When we were a kid, how do we get money? Pocket money from our parents, right? A little background to share, I was raised in middle class family. My dad never spoiled us with neither toys nor clothes. Sometimes as a kid I always ask and wonder, why can’t I get that toys?

And the beauty of it is, you can never expect that you will get the same […]
Sometimes life will give you what you need and not what you want
If someone asked you, name 3 things that you want to have right now and it can be anything. What answer would you give? I’m sure, we have bottomless wishes or things that we want to have in life. Whether it’s a status, money or (maybe) someone? Maybe for us who watched Aladdin and the Genie too much, we will be clever enough to have some imagination to ask another 3 more wishes on our last wish. Anyway, when you […]
In finding passion [revisited]
[continuing one of my past post] On my previous post, I wrote about motivation and I feel that one of the element to keep motivated is knowing our passion. I wrote about this too couple of posts before. So, before going further about motivation, I’d like to revisit the passion topic. 2 questions that I often asked myself are: Is this truly what I like to do? Will I stretch myself, when it’s needed, to do this till the end? […]
What motivates you?
Do you ever have some days where you just don’t want to do anything? I’m sure we do. On some point of time in our life, we have days when we are totally unmotivated. Regardless it’s about doing something that we are really like, for example in my case, blogging or taking pictures, or developing websites. (yes, I like to develop beautiful website but I have times when I feel scared and very unwilling to do it). I read quite […]
