After all the hard work organizing something, some friends didn’t turn up. After all the long nights revising, turned out that what we study wasn’t included for the exam. Then we asked ourselves, why? I’m sure that we are all in those situations. (Or probably worse?) and we feel stress because it didn’t go as we plan. At the back of my head I can hear my teachers in life will say, don’t think too much about it. Although to […]

Too much information
Imagine that you’re given these information: Mr X has a water tank which has a base 120cm x 75cm and it’s half full. By 1pm, he threw the 1/3 of the water away By 2pm, he threw again 4/7 of the water away By 3pm, he threw the 3/5 of the water away The remaining water in the tank is 36 liters, how tall his water tank is?

Expectation
Sometimes it’s better for not having any expectation, because whatever you get it will be a surprise for you. The problem with expectation is, the only person who will be able to answer your expectation is yourself.
Appreciate and praise

Quick and easy vs slow and tough
Fast food, quick meal, short discussion, easy money. Don’t you think that we are becoming lazier? Yes, technology plays its role to make life better and simpler. But it also makes us lazier.

The required price
Last week I attended a talk in a very cool office space. I praised the organiser that they have such a cool office, and they replied, it comes with the stress too. I think most of us has something that we want to achieve but most of the time we don’t want to pay the price. For example, we want to get a good quality of cloth, but we don’t want to pay the price. Well of course, sometimes we […]
6 best shared contents in my Facebook feed this week
I read in Mashable that Facebook recently changed their algorithm to display updates from our friends and brand page we like. Some of my friends said they are not surprise since they feel “spammed” in their Facebook feed by bad content. Before reading it, I feel the same way too that the more you interact with a person they more likely it will appear in your news feed. If you have thousands of friends in your list, you may want […]
