Hey reader! I'm going to start writing regularly. At first, I plan to do them quick and short just to establish the routine. But as I go, I expect to have better quality content that I think you will love. <!--more-->
|
|
|
|
### What does this mean?
|
|
|
|
I plan to do this in three tiers.
|
|
|
|
1. Maintain this Blog (daily) about life = family, health, finance
|
|
2. Send Emails to subscribers (weekly) about work = productivity + tech; and then
|
|
3. Online Magazine contributions (monthly) = i.e., hacker noon (my first post is quite technical, but see it [here](https://hackernoon.com/how-to-force-javascript-variables-to-use-specific-dom-apis-ca1i43q7))
|
|
|
|
### Now for my blog entry today...
|
|
|
|
I know it's a weird transition, but I don't want to think about this post too much. As I said I want to start quick and short. So here goes.
|
|
|
|
This morning, I realized two things:
|
|
|
|
1. Success is a variable
|
|
2. Greatness is a constant
|
|
|
|
This means that "Success" is pretty much different to everyone. One person could want to achieve a simple end goal, and another could want world domination.
|
|
|
|
But deep inside, I think humanity has a common idea of what "Greatness" is --something more noble to aim for.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, the popular culture of start ups and "successful" entrepreneurs and/or CEOs has put so much emphasis on "Success" that many of us forgot about a better life goal of achieving "Greatness"
|
|
|
|
You may not even know about what I'm talking about. :)
|
|
|
|
But more on that later, I guess?
|
|
|
|
### One other thing, on Mental Health
|
|
|
|
Also, this morning, I realized that:
|
|
|
|
1. Happiness is temporary. Enjoy it.
|
|
2. Loneliness is temporary. Endure it.
|
|
|
|
Keep this two things in mind, and hopefully it will help you keep moving forward.
|
|
|
|
I know it helps me.
|
|
|
|
To add to these, I also noticed that strong feelings often have an effect on the physical body. Anxiety, to me, makes the muscles in my neck and shoulders tense.
|
|
|
|
Though it is important to note that emotions are neither bad or good. It's how we handle them that could determine their effect on our lives.
|
|
|
|
But more on this later? :)
|
|
|
|
See you tomorrow.
