Keep Your Life / Work In Balance. It's Important

I have seen a lot of people sacrificed their health in order to get money. Not only that, not a few people find excuses for not able to give their time for even their own children and family.

Maybe you will ask, "What is more important than working / money? I'm too busy. My time is too valuable, if I couldn't get money in exchange of my time, is it worthed?".

Now, let's calm down. And discuss it for a bit (you can write a comment and we will discuss it).

True, if you focus your life on something. That something will likely to grow and bigger. That works on other fields too (relationship, health, craft, anything).

On my opinions, there are 3 aspects other than money / working which is important. And when you cultivate them, they will serve you and lift you to the next level.

#1. Relaxing / Exercising / Eating Well (Health Management)

Healthy is the most precious wealth on the world.

No one will disagree about it. Can we enjoy our life if we are bedridden? Even if you have a lot of money in your bank accounts, does it feel good (live with sick body what I mean)? Yes, you can pay hospital for your healing. But sick isn't nice 😊.

Other than that, there are other benefits with exercising your body. When you work out, it releases a brain chemical that grows neural connections. It also releases dopamine (make you motivated) and serotonin (make you feel happy).

#2. Relationship

Networking is very important. We, humans, are social creatures. Everyone need to be loved and need to share their feeling. That is our nature.

By expanding your network, you can elevate your bussiness too. Bussiness isn't about you, but give value to the others. More impact you give to the world, more success you will be.

And give your time for your family.

We were bornt with nothing
We will end our life bring along nothing
What remains are our legacies

When we die, the only thing we left is memory. Will you leave a memory "He is a great father, He taught me how to be a winner" or "He is sucks, never be at home, when I need him, he is nowhere to be found"? Which one do you choose? It is your call.

Your children only become kids once and it is a short time too. Once it is gone, it will be gone forever.

#3. Learning

Give yourself a habit to read books and learn new skills. World keeps changing, what we think something is working now, it isn't guaranteed to work in the future.

Keep yourself up to date with new knowledges and skills.

Besides, by studying you will stimulate your brain to be active. Brain is like body muscle, more you train it, stronger and better it will be. Yes, older you are, you will be more forgetful (cannot beat age) but your brain's analytic and logic power will be higher.

Life is brilliant full of wonder. Explore your life in fullest. Enjoy.

The Key to be An Expert or Grandmaster on Your Field

If you have read Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers, you know the answer : the 10,000 hours rule. But the problem is practice that much time only is not enough. Photo Credit :  874791 via photopin   (license) The 10,000 hours rule concept was introduced in academic circles in the early 1970s, and was popularized by Malcolm in his 2008 book. That's approximately 20 hours a week for 10 years. If you want to be a world class performer, this cannot be avoided. Every greatest man on this world got through this, no matter how talented or genius you are, you will not become the best on the world without live through vigorous training before you show yourself to the world. Even Ernest Hemingway did it, Van Gough had drawn countless drawing before making a contemporary painting we enjoy today. And maybe you already know, Michael Jordan trained himself a lot of freethrows and numerous core training everyday before he becomes a legend. But, it won't make any different, if you...

When "Doing Nothing" Actually Give You More

Doing nothing but give you more? Isn't it counter productive? Yes, if you completely do nothing in your life, but that is not what I want to write on blog post here. It is more to do with doing nothing for your healthy inner self. Photo Credit:  After 10km trail, a rest.  via  photopin   (license) We, human beings, aren't robots. Even machines need their own off times. That's the idea. You need it. It is not only normal rest, I know people's definition of rest on these days are watching tv, playing games, surfing internet, and anything that have correlation with technologies. I tried it myself recently, I turned off my handphone, I backed off from my computer, and I didn't watch tv. What did I do then? I did nothing. Breathed. Watched the best movie on the world (real life) outside of window. It is best if you can go to park and enjoy the world. Forget about your jobs, forget your to do list for a bit, do nothing. When you do it, feel your body rela...
