First time for something

I did it, I joined a race overseas. Well technically my first was Vietnam Mountain Marathon last year (or was it two years ago now?) And this time I joined a race in Warsaw. By accident. After visiting Germany for work, I’m going to be in Warsaw for a week for another work meeting. My colleague who went with me to Germany told me about the race, so after some thoughts and push from other running buddies, I decided to […]

Will you tell the other person directly for something which might hurt their feeling?

Reading the latest chapter of One Piece when Luffy landed in a new land, he made some comments about it and the other character was telling him, he’s too straightforward. But Luffy is being Luffy, he won’t think twice or considerate about other people’s feeling. He is just saying what comes to his mind. Last week, I received some feedbacks from one of my colleagues and at the end of the feedback session he asked me, if he made me […]

Going slow to go fast

This week inspiration is from my boss at work. In an offsite meeting 2D1N, he mentioned that sometimes you won’t go anywhere if you keep moving fast. But, if you wait patiently, you might be able to go way faster. This is related to your “North Star”. If you know yours, then it’s fine. Otherwise, you might ended up going fast to the wrong direction. Do you have similar experience?

Go for it!

What are the things that scare me? *MANY* Doing exams, going for races, trying a new role. I get butterfly in my stomach, I have cold sweat, and some other symptoms. But, every time I asked myself, will I regret it if I don’t go for it? Most of the times, there is a little voice inside saying, yes. So, it is scary. But most of the times it turns out to be alright. Our mind tends to multiply it. […]

You should do a marathon once in your life

I mentioned many times in my previous blog post that I’m not a runner, I don’t have stamina nor speed. But there is something about running which somehow always pulls me back to do it. The euphoria after running and the less preparation needed sport are perhaps the main reasons. I ticked this out of my bucket list last year. I don’t care much about the time, as long as I cross the finish line, and didn’t get any injury. […]

Laugh it out

When did the last time you hear a cold jokes and laughing out loud? Maybe I’m too used to with my sensei’s cold joke as I’ve been following her class for more than 4 years, but I think that to have ability to see things in slightly less serious way is necessary. She always has very interesting angle to see things which she heard from News or the Internet. Sometimes it’s really a refreshing angle but there are times it’s […]

Just try it

This is the third week since I adopted two cats, and I felt they had been with me longer than that. I don’t know why.. Maybe I have been intense experience for the first two weeks and now gradually started to adjust to a rhythm which works for three of us.  I actually forgot that they are still adjusting to me, my place and their new life too. Only when my friends started to say, they just three weeks with […]

A new catventure

I know I owe a post from last week, and while writing half way (it’s still in my draft) Sunday is here again when I need to post a new one for this week. So this week post is gonna be longer than my usual post, to make up last week post. One main reason why i didn’t manage to finish the last week one was I went to a shelter and adopted 2 cats. I never owe any pets […]
