Blog subscribers.

Posted on February 17, 2022April 22, 2025 by chefswifediary

So, I have successfully migrated my blog from WordPress.com to WordPress.org after three months. Despite so much effort and time spent in fixing lost information, reviving my blog subscribers is still a massive challenge. Have I mentioned that the ‘likes‘ accumulated for my blog posts over the years have gone too? There is only one…

Reading secrets.

I always thought having a blog is like having a diary where bloggers can just journal about their daily life as favourite pastime. Plus, it seems like many bloggers have started off with journaling as a hobby, grew famous over time, and branched into specialisation after. I wonder how it’s like at the beginning, from…

listen to your instinct, nature

Listen to your instinct.

Listen to your instinct. With so much going on these days, having faith in decision making can be challenging. Higher risk decision takes a longer time but sooner or later, we’ll derive at a decision. Nobody wants to suck up regrets, more time for consideration is better than making silly mistakes. Whether it’s researching or…

Learning from reflection.

Posted on January 27, 2022April 22, 2025 by chefswifediary

Woke up to a throwback post on my Facebook shared by my brother this morning. It has been seven years since I graduated with an MBA qualification. Honoured to be featured on national newspapers, it was my first personal reflection published to wider public. MBA, a mean to an end, I haven’t stop learning from…

Massively forgotten.

Posted on January 25, 2022April 22, 2025 by chefswifediary

After months being away from work, I’m beginning to feel pinches of isolation. Weeks prior to maternity, a few colleagues echoed to keep in touch informally whenever possible. Warmth was felt and honestly, it felt good to know there’re people from work who care. Eight months down the line, didn’t know I was massively forgotten….

Can mothers have it all?

Posted on January 22, 2022April 22, 2025 by chefswifediary

Maternity is soon over. With three months left to go, my days have been daunting so far. On one hand, I am so ready to go back to work. On the other, I am anxious on how I can possibly cope with separation anxiety. Juggling between ambitious thoughts and emotions, can mothers have it all?…

Have you been wasting your time on people who don’t deserve your time all these years? Perhaps you have been chasing for a place within a sought-after community or craving for attention that no one cares giving it to you? Perhaps self-development is never about elevating yourself but for the sake of pleasing others and…

Happy New Year! Which writer would want to miss writing a post in the first week of new year? A new beginning, many have eminently recapped what 2021 means for them and hoping for a better 2022. 2021, a recovery year as we tried to regain strength, pick ourselves up, and strive for some level…

fear of missing out

Fear of missing out.

Posted on December 21, 2021April 22, 2025 by chefswifediary

Nine months away from the corporate world, something that I never thought would exist in my diary is happening today. It’s the fear of missing out that is playing on my mind. Work is a part of life. It’s pointless to discuss about the symbiosis of ‘work to live or live to work.’ Evidently, the…
