Cleanliness
One good look in our room, the first impression you'll think of is... expressive. Who am I kidding? It's a massive mess. It's a reflection of my mind. My current state. A person who lives in broken windows unsurprised when another is broken. I've tolerated it simply because it's a hassle to fix and no … Continue reading Cleanliness
Understanding Storytelling
Ludwig is one storyteller that I seriously want to learn from. His style of telling stories is engaging, snappy, and extremely effective. I have yet to see a storyteller like him. The only person who could hold up to par would Levy Rozman and his theatrical storytelling. These guys are people that I can learn … Continue reading Understanding Storytelling

I clicked on the button that automatically opened the umbrella, then I heard a quick snap. … Continue reading Selective Accountability
The Internet-depended Mind
I'll be honest. I'm extremely dependent on the internet. It's the reason why I can do my work, entertain myself, and express myself. Possibilities are endless with the internet, but I already know deep down that though there are so many possibilities and opportunities this space gives it brought me to depressing times as well. … Continue reading The Internet-depended Mind
Momentum Build-up
One thing I've always dismissed when building habits is momentum. When atomic habits and momentum combine, habits will increment in size and in scope. Building the right habits with the right scope usually is a daunting task, but with small incremental steps and leveraging momentum it's so easy. However, I've also noticed that when the … Continue reading Momentum Build-up
Short Story Drought
It's hard to read when the story you're reading is boring as fuck. It's not captivating. It's not entertaining. What really troubles me is when the paragraphs are way too fucking long. I don't want to read those kinds of paragraphs because they're so tiring to look at. Why not make them into bite sized … Continue reading Short Story Drought
The Biggest Regret
It was a Thursday afternoon in the corner of a silent dirty room. I was alone with my laptop with my full attention happening on the screen. I've prepared the whole week just for this moment. Just for this one opportunity I'm giving it my all. I reviewed every concept I’ve learned since university. I … Continue reading The Biggest Regret
