Nothing last forever is one of Maroon 5's famous song. Even though this songs is about a relationship but it is also some of the fact that nothing last forever...in this world. Not encouraging to end a relationship, but in life sometimes we just have to accept the fact that many things come and go, many people come and go in our lives. But we have to admit that some are here to stay too. Keep it, guard it and be thankful what we have for now, we never knows it will never last forever. Make sure we fight for something worth it, something that we have for now.
Sometimes we can not avoid that loosing something or somebody is not a rare thing that happen in life. Loosing is never been easy, even the sweetest goodbye is painful. But I've learn in order to found something better and greater than we have now, we must move and lost what we have for now. Have a big heart and have faith that God always have Bigger plans ahead of us. Grateful heart is all we need to have facing the pain of loosing. Be Strong and Believe.
I dedicate this writings to inspire some of my dear friends who lost their love ones, Be strong and have faith. Everything will be OK. Loosing is painful, but drowning in regrets is never been a good solution, wake up and move on, what doesn't kill us will make us stronger...We are loved...

Work Work Work
Every single person in this world must work. Even housewife is doing their work, I can say it is the hardest job in the world, no doubt about it. Working is a vocation, don't let it be just a routine that we must do every single day, over and over again. The wrong understanding of working will make us bored and unproductive. The most important thing about work is how we create something from nothing, and that is how we be Thankful and Glorify our God. Make people satisfied with our work, been there and it was on of the best feeling in the world.
And be careful, we can work as hard as we can, because how much we love our job, but the time that we spend for working are priceless. Money or any rewards that we get from working are not the only thing that make the value of our work, it is the achievement that you earn and the time that you used during your work. Is the time worth to spend by working rather than having a quality time with your love ones? Work hard, work wise and work smart.
Have passion in the work or in everything that we do will make a big differences. Stop doing what we are doing now rather then we are doing it without the heart. it is worthless and wasting time. Start Moving on and make a change.
I was at my weakest point when I was starting to change my career from an IT Consultant which I also love that job and at a very comfort zone, to an full time Entrepreneur. Everybody didn't have any doubts with my ideas and capability. Just one thing that I realize it's true until now.. The courage to begin!
Always hard to start a new thing, because sometimes we think too much, we analyze too much. Just do what you want to do then move from there. What doesn't kill you will make you stronger.
Do not be afraid to learn something new, who knows this new thing might be our biggest achievement that haven't been discover. Life is about endless learning anyway, we may not be perfect but a true person always learn and leverage their level to be someone better. When you stop learning, you will be left behind. Never stop moving forward, Be Blessed.

Family
Don't be mistaken by the word of family. Not all family are perfect happy text book family like it was thought to us at School. Family is about value. Family is about foundation what made us to be what kind of person we are now.
Some family can be really bond together and some are just can't. But don't be mistaken by the outside appearance, the silent mutual understanding sometimes is better than fake actions. Sometimes the concept to protect, to help, to care may not be sincere. I heard many backstabbing stories between family members. Many lies and fake things just to keep one's purpose without thinking of other feeling or happiness. Of course this is a common thing in social life. But in a family? Our family, the closest person in our life (should be). Should an ego, be forced to others, should other aspect ruin the ideal concept of a family. I should bluntly say the most common aspect is money, heritage and wealth. Where is the value? Is it worth?
Strange but often happen is warnings or rules that parents made are so hard to understand and complicated even though we know that they are a form of care and love. But sometimes they also do not realize that world are simply different, life is different for every person, value is different for every person even for identical twins. Understanding is the new level of care
Just simply respect each other, care for their happiness 1st, family is about love, just like what I've wrote about Love Life. "I love you" means sincerity, nothing in return, unconditional.
Love them with all your heart, protect them WISELY with your life, Respect their hope and dreams. We will never know when the time comes, even a simple goodbye will be impossible to said.
This one is dedicated specially to my late Dad, a great teacher, a wise preacher, an excellent leader, a true friend that really listen with understanding, a true warrior (literally a martial artist) and a smart entrepreneur. Best Father anyone can ever wish for.

Happiness
Believe it or not, happiness is determine from the value that we hold in our life. What is happiness? Some people are looking for happiness. Are we going to find happiness by searching for it? Well.. why don't just live happily rather than going after for happiness. Happiness is an absurd state of mind, determine by expectation and satisfaction. So if you want to be happy all the time, it is very simple..DO NOT expect anything, don't expect something to change like you wanted, don't have high expectation for something that not going to happen, look around and just be thankful for them. Just believe in the positive mind, all of them will change before you notice them. Rather than keep complaining for everything that happened around us.
Don't take it in a wrong way, don't have high expectation for something that not going to happen, doesn't mean that we can not have dreams and hopes. Dreams and hopes are things that makes us Alive, These are important things that will makes us something to life for and something to fight for. Keep the spirits high to reach the dreams and keep the hopes high to be our strength to reach the Goals. Always look down when you are on top, and always look up when you are down.
Being Happy is an attitude of being grateful for everything that we have.

Love Life
Love and Life is 2 different things, but we can not separate both things. There is no love without life, and there is no life without love (for normal human being of course) I don't know how people can live without love. Some people may say it is easy to fall in love, but I believe not everybody have the chance to fall in love. Be blessed for those who ever fell in love. Be grateful for those who are still falling in love, because not everybody can feel your happiness. Love is sincere and pure, if you said "I Love You" but you want something back in return or just a simple word "I Love you too" in return, then you don't mean it when you said it. You want to be loved, not to be in love.
In life people said money can buy happiness, it's not wrong, depends on what is your value and your definition of happiness. But can Love bring happiness? for sure..if you understand the true meaning of love. There are things that money can't buy : Love, Time and Trust. We must earn these and don't waste it. There is no turning back when you loose it.
In love is about giving and not expecting any in return, Love is about sacrifice, the more you sacrifice the more you realize how deep is your Love. Try to ask yourself what kind feelings you have if you always hurting your love ones and never understand what they really want. Because being happy from other people happiness is what a true lover means.
Learn about Love from our Creator, What does God want in return for the Life that He has given us. None.
Always be grateful for your life and feel the love around us. And more important spread the Love, that is how we can appreciate life. Be a giver not a taker, be a lover not a hater.

Just be Friends
We can easily define what is a true friend. There are no boundaries in friends, different from a boyfriend/girlfriend relationships. A true friend should be the one you can really trust and the one you can share everything. And everything means all things, not even a dirty little secrets. That is why they are called friends. If you want to keep secrets, being fake to each other, why bother being friends. Even though sometimes we can found a complicated friendship because they just want to keep their pride, the question is "Why bother?". It's a waste of time to create a fake friendship.
Being friends with the opposite sex sometimes is more interesting, Even though some doesn't believe that this kind of friendship exist without the presence of romance. But I do believe and we can learn so much thing from each other, because the different point of view, different emotion and thoughts. But Don't fall in love, will be more complicated than you can think off. You can loose a lover but don't loose a friend , it's a major lost.
Friendship should be more special than boyfriend/girlfriend relationship, nothing to be fake about because you know you will always have them whatever happen, no cheating, no lies, no backstabbing. If these things happens, Don't bother wasting time to ask why it is happen because it is simple, they are not your friend.
Choose your friend wisely because it is easier to pick up an enemy than to pick up a true friend. Your friends will determine what social circle you are in. Good ones or Bad ones, Supportive ones or Destructive ones.
Accept people for what they are, we are all unique for what we are. Don't try to change people, Try to change yourself then everything else will change with you. No expectation is needed, everyone just seems to understand each other for what they are and won't interfere as long as it is not destroying the character and the person itself. A true relationships should understand this.

Go With The Flow
Some people call it motto, some people call it way of life "Go with the flow". I used to do "Go with the flow" too. It is very easy and not actually something to be proud of. Go with the flow is basically waiting, just wait and see. What to wait and what to see? That is the real question. No dreams to reach, no purpose to walk through. Dreams are made to make people "Alive", to have hopes. Always keep our dreams alive and pursue it. Not every dreams can come true, but we also will never know if we never try to reach them.
We also will never know if we never try something new, something out of the box. Success is not when we can reach our goal at the first attempt, but the real success is when we try something, we fail, and learn how to come back again and make thing better. Don't regret something when we fail to reach something we wish for, regret always come late. As a human we may regret things to make a lessons out of it, but don't get drown by the feeling itself. Everything happens for a reason, IF we realize them.
Life is too short and time can never be turned back, keep moving forward. Be grateful, be happy and always make every single second worth to live for, not to die for.

Life is Simple
Life..Have you ever asked yourself..what is your purpose in life? deep question? yes it is,but it's actually simple and you must know what is your answer for that.
Life is about happiness. Who doesn't want to be happy in life, right?
Well...happiness is a state of mind, it is not easy as it said of course, and not as simple as a blink of an eye. But it is true. One said that happiness is not a condition when there is no problems in life, but actually it is about how you deal with your problems. It is how you treat your life, how you see your life. Life is always a choice, no such thing as "I don't have a choice". Only a coward who don't want to choose and determine their own life. Because we are who we are, our life, our rules. Good guy or Bad guy, Happy person or Sad person. Start to think about your life again and turn your life around. Enjoy your life. Life is too short to be unhappy. Just like One Republic Song's Good Life.
Life is simple if you know how to be "Alive" and be happy.

The Beginning
It started here...
This is a calling for me to write this blog. Not just for fun or just to be a hobby. I am a person that like to encourage people. And I just feel that I must do something to those people who is not happy, simply just because they have the wrong way how they see life..and how they see "problems".
Why positivity? Because there is always a way to be positive side in everything. Life is always a choice, now it depends how you want to see it..positive and be grateful..or negative and always complaining..your life, your choice..
Why consultant? Because I used to be an IT consultant, I like sharing thoughts and giving a solutions..May not be a perfect ones, but I'm sure it is going to be something you will think about..
The purpose of this blog is to share thoughts..any thoughts..no political, racist or religion of course..and I would like to share my point of view..so that hopefully, we can discuss and learn together how to be grateful and appreciate life more..
And most important thing I don't judge people, I appreciate people for what they are and their uniqueness. So forgive me if there is anyone who offended with my writings, it is not my purpose, you feel offended because it is true. But feel free to judge me. I am open to criticism.
No problems are bigger than Our God and God never let us face problems bigger than our capacity. Have faith.
