Figuring Out The Perfect Reading Workflow

I have been reading lots of books. I had planned to read a book every week about a year ago, but I failed at it. So I never pushed myself hard to read books. I can, of course but I won’t be able to work on my projects. This month, I should be focusing on […]

Mark of a Failing Newbie

If someone asks me lots of precautious question before starting something, I automatically assume they’ll not succeed. It’s simply not the way how successful people approach their goals. Instead of taking lots of precaution before starting, or not starting at all, it’s always better to start right away and learn along the way. Asking lots […]

Why I Dont Follow Anyone on Twitter

The heart of twitter lies in getting updates from people you follow. But I’ve stopped following anyone. I started using twitter by following anyone who followed me. And then following anyone I’d see on the sidebar. I started receiving crap updates from people I never knew about. Slowly, it started to get overwhelming. I didn’t […]

You are Planting Seeds Everywhere

I jump from the roof and grip hold of a steel bar. And I fly with my hands gripped on the bar for sometime. I then let loose of it and land safely. I used to do this every time I went to the roof of my house. One day, my niece was watching me […]

I have been consuming lots of stuff from other people. Today morning, I was busy disconnecting and decluttering them. I unsubscribed websites which I wasn’t reading often and […]

Celebrate Small Victories

Some years ago, I wished to have my own blog. But I couldn’t afford or pay for the hosting and domain because I didn’t have Credit or Debit cards. Nor did I have PayPal. It was extremely difficult to pay for hosting and domain. And even if I could, it was pretty expensive for me. […]

Sacrifice Happiness: The Price of Greatness and Opportunity

I try to be happy, and when I’m happy, I always figure out that I’m settling for less. Is settling for less the price of happiness? If you long to reach the top of the ladder, you need to push yourself, which means you aren’t happy at your current state. And pushing yourself forward takes […]

Test Your Assumptions

When I was in School, we had to read a popular story of the Tortoise and the Hare. The story concerns a Hare who ridicules a slow-moving Tortoise and is challenged by the tortoise to a race. The hare soon leaves the tortoise behind and, confident of winning, takes a nap midway through the course. […]

How to Write a Blog Post Worth Your Readers Time

When we first start to write blog post, we often write it for others. We desperately want others to read it and give us immediate feedback. So we twist and turn our natural voice and flow to make people like it. With time, everyone falls on this habit of writing something which is off no […]
