Just a ranting about life, minimalism, gardening, kitchen, food, deco

When too many things come to you at the same time, how do you handle it? Example: You got a new task at work and that task is hard, require time, technology, money and cooperation from people. There is this festive season coming in and you know that you have to do a lot of things, choosing cloth to buy and wear, clean and beautify the house, the food, the vehicle had to be sure it is good. Friends  Sibling Somebody near you sick And the list continue. It become harder as in the process of all this, you had to make decision that you regret later, but because of the circumtances, you ahd to let go. What to do then? How about myself? Well, one thing I know that won't do good is sitting idly. things would never change if I do not take actions. Yes, the actions could be as simple as sweep the floor, but keep on. Keep on trying, put a smile on the face, even your heart is hurting, and then just keep on walking. I've heard that the things happen is because I chose it, an...

Do you know the important of saving? I do, but I do not exactly practiced it, until recently.  Maybe I do not realized how really important for me to do saving. This is the table that I got from reading Azizi Ali’s book  ‘ Millionaires are from a different planet’. The table shows how you can have a million ringgit assuming of 9% annual return every year. Age Monthly Savings (RM) Interest (%) Total Earnings (RM) 20 340 9 1 million 30 892 9 1 million 40 2,643 9 1 million 50 13,258 9 1 million But I’m 27 now… and I do not think I save that much amount of money every month. I’m 27, so the money I need to save is around 700 per month?.... wow, then I have to live frugally if I want to. That means, selling my car, and change to a more affordable car, finding a housemate, earn extra money, like doing tuition, writing, and maybe helps my father at the farm so he can give me some money....

One of my liking is starting something new, but having difficulties to continue it. I stop in the middle of it. This blog is an example. I just can continue to write anything in this blog, and yet, I decided to make a new one. But then I found out that I unable to maintain so many blogs at a time. So I decided to close the newest blog and continue and proceed with this blog. I found happiness in writing. I love seeing my articles being published even though no one reads it. I got a sense of accomplishment. One of the main reason because I having difficulties to voice out my opinion freely to people without making people uncomfortable. I guess, it just my feeling, but I cannot help it. But by writing, I can. It is so good to have an opinion of my own. Without the needs to be interfere by an outside interference. As much as I do not care, but judgment from people can easily be seen, and how much I want to deny it, it does affected  me. I find no other way to make me voice out wha...

A friend of mine said that I kind a person who can tolerate anything... kind a yes person. As difficult as I want to admit,  I guess at some point, she is right.A yes person, is not too good, isn't? I've been a subscriber to Jack Canfeild newsletter and today email, really shows why saying no is good too, in fact it shows reasons for me why I need to learn to say no.   There are only two words that will always lead you to success.  Those words are yes and no.  Undoubtedly, you’ve mastered saying yes.  So start practicing saying no.  Your goals depend on it!  If you are constantly saying yes to other people, then you are constantly saying no to yourself  and your goals .    Ask yourself if what is being requested of you is in line with your goals, will it benefit you in some way and bring you closer to your success, or will you simply be spending your time on someone else’s good opportunity? How much time do you waste with pr...

This blog really testing my patience... Manybe that's why I decided to leave this blog for good... but then I found out that this blog got a pagerank, I felt wasted to let it go. I was thinking to abandon this blog, as I do not know where in this blog is heading to, but after I found out that this blog got a pagerank, I felt wasted if I do not maintained it. So here it is, my post after two months of ignoring it.   Its not that I do not do any writing for the past few months, but I concentrate on my other blogs, and turn out too, I do not have a strong body to work as much as I could. That a harsh reality that I need to accept. I guess what I will do next depend on what I will thought today. Maintaining too many blogs will be hassle for me as I also need to maintained my work palce blog, and having slow connection didn’t help much.  But this blog once has gave me money, so why should I let it go. Maybe all I need to do are to be more focus and less distracted by unneces...

Last year, I was working in other place ( read me as a teacher blog), and this year, I was in a new place. Its’ been more than 4 months in a new place, and yet, so many things I still adjusting and experiences. It is the same too last year. Got diffcculties to adjust to new palce, with so many things encounter, bad and good. Ohh…. Life in a new place isn’t that easy at all. To able to accommodate and feeling comfortable at a new palce requires time and energy. Money? Wow, need to spent on a lot of things. I know new experiences is good. It could give you more knowledge and let you become more mature and your wisdom increases. It could also backfire. That means whether you become a better side of you or become the other side of it. Weird, isn’t? Sometimes, the demands of life make us to make a decision that unthinkable and bad. But I guess, that is life. You will encounter things that you never thought that you will. Open mind and positivity do help in this kind of situation. Of course...

This week has been a very challenging week for me as a few unhappy things happen to me. First, I’ve been inflicted with a disease, well, its not that bad, but finally it require a minor surgery and second, my car’s back mirror broken without reason. Wahhhh, what a day. At first, I thought to use my insurance policy to pay for my back car mirror’s, but I found out that I do not include mirror in my policy claimed, and if i still want to use my insurance policy, i will be losing my NCB, ohhh, and it getting worse as it need to go throuh so many things, like need to lodge a police report and it need to wait  a few days before the car can be fix. Ohhhh, how can I wait for that because I need my car everyday. So i opt to pay for my own. This is the picture. Wonder how it can happen considering nothing hit my car, and it at 9.30 am, morning, it’s not hot. Second, i’ve got this medical condition and it wasn't pretty. One visit to a private clinic has already cost money, and imagine y...
