Do Children Tend To Do Same Career As Their Parents?

Recently, I got a question pop up to my head whether we as children will eventually do same career as our father's / mother's. So, I googled it and found out that facebook researchers did some analysis from their huge members' data (you can read their article and data here : https://research.facebook.com/blog/do-jobs-run-in-families-/ ). From their research, they found out that people more likely to choose same as their parents' occupation compare to others whom their parents aren't do that occupation. Confused?? It means that if your parents are doctors, you more likely would be a doctor compare to your friend whom parents are lawyer. Why? Because we, humans, are "built" by world around us. When we were kids, our minds were like a blank page, and as we grow we learn new things. Where did we learn it from? You know the answer, yes, it was from our parents (including our kindergarden and school teachers, but their influence will be very small) and

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.

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

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
