Annnd we're back! If anything, the past few months of being away from keyboard taught me perseverance. My mom came over and I got rejected for being overqualified, and for some reason, the two events taught me so much mo
I ran a marathon. What are the odds of us getting here? What started off as a boredom killer turned into a way of life that taught me more than any other sport - that's the beauty of endurance. If there's one thing it ta
Change is never comfortable, but it's what pushes us forward for the better, whether we like it or not. I pretty much sailed through college by being structured, but later I realised that life doesn't always align with y
Every year I add another number to myself, I made a pact to do a self-reflection and assessment of pivoting moments that led me to who I am today. We mustn't forget the seemingly small victories nor the bitter defeats we
When someone close corrects you or gives you feedback, we tend to be on guard instinctively as our pride is being compromised. But as you mature, you start to realize the importance of taking a step back and realizing th
Sure, discipline and consistency will get you going, but knowing where you're going and why is more important than not. Whether it be your career choice, studies or personal relationships, every decision counts, so think

The higher you fly, the harder the fall. Whether it be in your career, studies, love life, or social circle, it's all about managing expecations. At the end of it all, if they truly value you, they'll make the effort and
Almost a year ago, I never thought I could reach peak performance in my runs, nor did I ever think of signing up for a marathon, but here we are. A scrapped knee, a broken leg, and a burst appendix only made me wiser, fa
The moment you throw your ego aside, you learn so much about yourself. Listening to my body and my mind has become something I take more seriously, especially after I got appendicitis and suffered multiple mental burnout
To get from point A to point B, you need to view it in 2 ways: the macro (destination) and the micro (how you get there). If you tend to jump into the micro, you tend to get lost and lose emotional regulation quickly, bu
The three most important resources you'll ever have are time, energy, and money. Where you go and how you get there depend on those three resources, which emphasizes the importance of ensuring you utilize them wisely and
Every first child is no stranger to the word sacrifice. We're the first ones to receive stricter scoldings for misbehaving, to give up the last piece of BBQ skewer so our younger sibling can have it, and to face the worl
There's the suffering we were given, and then there's the suffering we choose. And there's something about chosen suffering and discomfort that can either shape or break you. Believe it or not, this struggle in the job h
I know I'm not the only one going through this, and I know that you know that it doesn't get easier. The sheer amount of idle time led me to reflect on how I could make the most out of this time that I was given. It took
The mind is a double-edged sword; it either refines or destroys. Reflecting on 2024, many of the challenges I went through were mental battles, so I hope you take the time to ask yourself what you did right and wrong and
