2020 is the Year to Cut the Crap
Personally, 2019 is the year of massive healing and expansion to say the least. I started the year with in-explainable sickness that I’ve strongly assumed related to the lower vibration of depression, anxiety, stress, that I experienced in the past that still stuck as a trauma in my body. I also find out more and more, I get sensitive to other people’s energy, this also affect me big time in my journey of healing. I took one step at a time to heal my body and soul, thankfully my medical dr and healers (shoutout to dr. Herwien, Mbak Intan from Rumah Remedi, Raj Kumari, Michelle, Mbak Fiona Wang, My sis…

Welcoming 2020: A Decade in Review
Welcoming 2020: A Decade in Review A decade in review! I guess before entering 2020, it’s good to look back to see what I’ve done with my life. 2009 I was a newlywed, married to my university sweetheart after 8 years of relationship, we bought a house and a car together. 2010 Our marriage started to crumble at the point that I need to hire my first ever lawyer, unfortunately it was a divorce lawyer. 10 years after our divorce, I have nothing but gratitude as we have made the best decision. I have grown so much as a person after that. The asset from that pain was my knowledge on…

Essentially Essential Oil
I noticed something pleasantly different when I write my book last weekend. Now, the book I’m writing at the moment has a different difficulty level. You have to understand stock market like an expert, because I’m writing the biography of one. With my work during workdays and all that shit that happened in my personal life, it was so difficult to focus to write. I can’t write for so long because my brain just seem to stuck. But two weeks ago, I found these gems: essentially essential oils! I use Copaiba, which I bought because I burnt my fingers from nail polish remover (stupid wounds, really, but it might gave…

When You’re Tired: Rest
I always need minimum once a month getaway and I’ve been neglecting this need for the past few months due to work. Just recently, I have moved past a relationship, opening a new chapter in life, and I want a new fresh start. So I head to Bandung. My friend Heera was opening her house for me, where I found peace, and the warmth of belonging. Spent my day at Bandung’s many parks and breath in as much as fresh air as I could get. Reading Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations once again, to remind myself how to be stoic in the hardest situations in life. “I am willing to be ok,”…

I read hundreds of books in 2017. In case you’re wondering how to do that, you can watch my video ‘How to Read One Book a Day’ on YouTube If you don’t have the kind of craziness and insatiability towards books like I do, I’d recommend few books I’ve read in 2017 that changed my life.

NOT a New Year’s Resolution 2018 Just creating new better habits
2017 is not an easy year for many people including me. But, it’s not fair to label it a ‘bad year’ because when I read the whole journal of 2017, I discover 20+ yayness and only 3 wtfs. My 2017 turns out to be not bad at all. It’s a sign that human’s brain only focus on problems and need exercise to practice gratitude. To review my 2017, let’s look at them one by one and I’m going to make comment when I need to. The YAYY: I dance more! This is surely the year of dancing. New year’s eve was opened with me and Vera stranded in a very…

Selecting Gifts for The Newborn
My little brother just become a father few days ago. My first instinct was to get the mother a gift. Most baby gifts are for the baby, not the mother. And it usually very functional gifts, you name it: baby socks, breast pumps, etc. But I want something different. So, I know my sister-in-law loves lipstick. So I get her 3 lipsticks and 1 cheek blush in shades that she used to wear plus some other adventurous colors. I also get her flowers and teddy bear for Baby Al. And guess what, she’s happy with the parcel!

Mount Agung and The Meaning of Patience
Assad face looked a bit worried. He’s going to speak with me at Entrepreneur Bootcamp 2017 event in Bali, but he also want to make sure he’ll be back on time when his wife give birth. Following Mount Agung eruption, the status of Ngurah Rai airport has been unpredictable. I assure him that everything will be okay. Even when we finally stuck in Bali for few days because Ngurah Rai airport was closed, I still think everything will be fine. On the fourth day we were in Bali, from the 2 days trip plan, the organizers decided that we can go by land to Banyuwangi and get a flight back…
