Feelings are abundance. Sometimes candid, sometimes strange. Hardly ever stop and impossible to capture. Often overlooked, they are effortlessly presumed. Come and go like swoosh in the wind, condensing feelings without any effort in recognising them can only lead to one word, ‘complicated’. “Is it really possible to tell someone else what one feels?” ― Leo…
Reflection
Success from inside out.
To achieve bigger things in life, we must first begin with the smallest details. A quote that I hold true for the past thirteen years. With limited experience back then, I traded lateral salary in return for a genuine mentorship. “I am willing to learn because I have zero knowledge in this field.” Despite two…
Embrace diversity.
Remembering when I packed up and left my home country for the first time some years ago, there was no room for hesitation. Landed on a foreign land with just an hour flight away, I thought adaptation was going to be a soft ironing process. Having said that, it was not as straightforward in keeping…
Last Sunday.
Sunny sky as soon as nine. Without alarm eyes opened wide. Reflecting what’s left to realise. Didn’t take long to heighten the mind. List is long out of aspirations. Practically only few are judicious. Be realistic as time is precious. Pick one challenge that is due and matter. Be ready, be a go-getter….

Last Sunday of the decade.
Sunny sky as soon as nine. Without alarm eyes opened wide. Reflecting what’s left to realise. Didn’t take long to heighten the mind. List is long out of aspirations. Practically only few are judicious. Be realistic as time is precious. Pick one challenge that is due and matter. Be ready, be a go-getter….
Don’t quit.
How many times we’ve stumbled upon hurdles before we call it a quit? Or have we misinterpreted “hurdles“? More often than not, we think we’ve got everything figured out, just to be let down by occasional disconnections between plan and reality. Just because plans did not turn out the way we want to them to,…
Motto of 2019.
10 days to 2020. 19,530 words written excluding this piece. This year, I have taken the “go for it” approach. Ambitious with big dreams yet laying low, feeding my knowledge hunger through observing and active listening to others, as much as spreading thoughts with people around me. ‘Give and take ‘, a simple metaphor with substantial…
All she wanted.
A letter was handed to her that morning. Expecting nothing less, she frazzled the envelope and started running through the content, line by line. Reflecting the rocky roads over the past two years, it was a big piece of work. Maybe everyone had similar results, moderate ratings and average feedback. Still, she believed she delivered…
The best motivator.
When we’re young, accomplishment grants us applauses from people before us. Praises make us feel good; praises make us proud. As we grow older, compliments rarely come by. Does it mean that we no longer excel in what we do? Most parents would love to believe that their children are ones in a million. Talented…
