🤔 Why there is an obese doctor?
May 2, 2022
Something that I can't understand yet is why there is an obese doctor out there? It's akin to see a car mechanic who don't take care his own car. Doctor spend years in medical school, and decades teaching healthy life style – knowledge & motivation is not an issue. And since become doctor is a helluva difficult things to do, I doubt that this is a "will power" issue as well.
🪲 Why we hate insect?
February 15, 2020
It's really baffled me the hate that insects get from human. Most of us despise insect and even use it as a deragotary term. Insect!! Why do we have this global hatred to this small animal? Is this come from movie and media? Or we have a primal knowledge there that we inherit from our ancestor where most of them has a bad experience with insect?
☕️ Why it's hard to find a cafe that open early in the morning?
January 7, 2020
It's bloody difficult to find any decent cafe that open before 8 AM in Yogyakarta. What is going on here? Is this means that coffee as fuel for the working class is not the main drive of the explosion of cafe in Yogyakarta? Or this is what we use as a subtitue for liquor in the west as social lubricant?
ideas 💡
✅ To be relaxed with inbox. Imagine you are a librarian.
June 9, 2022
One thing that you can do to be kind to yourself and be more relaxed about your todo list queue is to imagine that you are a great librarian. You greet each of your customer, ensure that his/her needs fulfilled well. But when it's 5PM, you respectfully greet everyone. Apologize for those that not yet you able to serve. But back home anyway without guilt, as you know that you can still help them the next day.

June 3, 2022
In the future, as we transition away from physical money to digital one. It would be really cool if I can digitally pull the money that I have in bank (say Rp100,000), make a digital gift card from it (with expiration date), imbue the card with the things that kids might like (says collectible pokemon series as in nft form), print it, and then gift it to my niece.

A theme park where you have 5-12 range of house from different countries (Igloo, Farmhouse, Joglo, Honai, etc), and then setup each house to have the similar weather with it's origin (freezing cold if it's Iglo, hot and humid if it's Honai), play an ambience sound contain people converse in it's original countries, put some LCD or display about the culture of each countries.

⌛️ If 15 is too short, 30 is boring and 60 just too much, try 23.
May 27, 2022
If you have a meeting or a rite that you did regularly, one of the best thing that you can do to make it more fun and have a little bit zest in it is to set it up so that it would start at a really odd hour (say 8.33 in the morning) and end in strange time as well (end 23 minutes later). It help to curve the thing away and make it ring better ("8.23 meeting" sounds way better than "daily scrum").
🥰 My 25 angry with my 20 while my 35 beaming proudly at him.
May 26, 2022
The next time you kicking yourself for your flaw or mistake, try to picture you 10 years ago and see what you think of him/her now. I bet you will have a higher opinion of him/her, compared to your opinion of your **now** self. This is a good reminder that you need to try to keep play the long game, not only in business, but also in accepting yourself.
🙄 Yeah, we need online course for director

A month before I sign the notary document to become SoftwareSeni, I'm scouring internet for any potential training in Indonesia that would prepare me (based on Indonesia law and compliance) in become Director. I found none, nada, zip, zilch. This is actually a perfect opportunity for any law firm out there to build an online training course for anyone who prepareing to be **Director in Indonesia.** You can create like the basic version of the training, and also offer more one on one consultation as premium.kk

January 26, 2022
I only learn to have a good strategy for reading and taking notes in my 30s. And I'm lucky to have a professional train me to do that. I think it would be fantastic to have it much earlier.
