Taking Small Actions Every Day

When you look at the big picture, or looking at the list of things that you have to do is so daunting and all you want to do is curl up in bed, I know exactly how you feel. It's like there are times I think, do our life revolve around this only? Lists and lists of things to do?

But then I figured the usefulness of figuring out what are the things that I have to do each day and they don't always have to be an incredibly boring list. Basically, I treat it as something that I want to achieve in doing to have a better quality of life and to provide better things for the family.  Sure, the excel formulas can get rather confusing, or the online quizzes seem to pluck out the questions from outer space. But as I go along learning them, and slowly getting passed the difficulty through understanding and several practices, I see them as stepping stones to something bigger in future: a certificate and a diploma at the end of the ordeal programme. The presentations that I have do also make me a better individual where I am able to project myself out clearly to others by knowing the right things to say and capturing their attention.

One of my biggest problem is productivity and motivation. I think they both go hand in hand. Previously I talked about not having to wait around for motivation to come about but to simply start now. So the next thing I need to tackle is productivity.

My brother showed me an article online that is so useful, I think I ought to share here. However, I couldn't find that article. Instead, I found another one that is just as useful and you have to read if you have productivity issues like me. 

The main thing to do is to be productive every single day. Oh, and to get yourself a calendar also so that you can mark out a big red X to signify hey, you have been productive this day. Don't think too much of the past like regretting not doing this or that, or be scared about how the future would be like. Conquer today first. Break down your tasks into manageable portions and work on it every day. Wanna lose weight? Do something daily that will contribute to the weight loss. Wanna save money? Try saving your loose change each day or watch your spending by eliminating the things that you don't need to buy. Wanna write more blog posts? Schedule about minimum 10 minutes each day to write a simple blog post and on days you have more things to write or have more pictures to post, then dedicate more time for it, like me, you would notice I  write more or post pictures on weekend.


Why don't you read the article below so you can get the gist of what I have been talking about. I think it will really boost your productivity level. Everyone is given 24 hours a day. But it's a matter of being committed in finding the time, whether you have to wake up earlier, or typing out the draft on the phone while commuting..it's basically trying to make good use of the whatever time you have.

Birthday Gathering & House Hunting

Last week, I celebrated a friend of mine's belated birthday together with another friend at her condo. Sadly, this would be the last time we would hold the celebration at her place because she has finally managed to sell off her condo unit after one year of looking for a buyer. Mostly we used the swimming pool facilities although the two of us didn't swim at all but just chill under the shade. We brought home cooked food and I really appreciated my friend for doing this for us, thinking about how the young son of a friend of us would love the swimming pool for kids. She is so selfless and kind to her friends and I'm truly blessed to have her in my life.  While one was selling off the house, the other friend was on the verge of getting a dream house for herself and her young son. In life, we have many priorities and things to look forward to. Each of our dreams and aspirations are different from one another, like for me, getting a house is not a priority at the moment.  ...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...
