Four Signs You’re Actually Doing Better Than You Think

When we live in a world where everything is constantly changing, the only constant is you. One major lesson I have learned in this precious life is that nobody can take care of you better than you can. If you are one of those people who are in the middle of a huge self-transformation, I am here to give you more signs that you are doing great. 


You’ve Stopped Fighting Life and Started Leading It






For a long time, I did not understand the reason for the triggers and negative emotions that arose within me. It is not wrong to feel them; in fact, it is good to channel them in the right way. But hours of overthinking and simply dwelling on those emotions were paralysing my mind and preventing me from reaching my full potential. So how do I control all this to live a specific life that I want? You don’t. Merely accepting certain things in life that are uncontrollable will save you from many mental breakdowns. Meanwhile, your routines, mindset, and how you perceive life are things you can control in life. The more you focus on these, the less you get caught up in unwanted things.



Other People’s Opinions No Longer Define You

After a long time of letting other people be the main character in my own story, I started realising that others’ perception of me does not change who I am. The only person who knows what you want and your capabilities is simply yourself. If you are noticing that you are doing things that you are used to being afraid of now. Then that is the real glow up! There is no anger or hurt in your heart, and you are just moving on from anything that does not serve you.  Out of sight! Out of mind!






You’re Finally Living for You, Not the World


All my life, I grew up thinking the point of living this life is to ‘level up’ in life. Constantly thinking about the next step in life and planning that life. It is necessary to plan or visualise your life to build the life you want. I am a visual board girlie too! However, I completely believe that intention matters. Are you living your life for you or achieving the invisible timeline that society created for you? Ultimately, all the bad and good things are part of your life. It is a package deal. If you are someone who is focusing on their goals and accepts things as they are, then you are doing great in life already.



You Choose Yourself 

You are the priority! Period! It is not self-centred to think of yourself first in your life. If you do not put yourself as a priority, then who will? Self-love and acceptance are the ultimate ways to give yourself priority. This will help you to keep a high standard for yourself. Honestly, it will save you from a lot of bare-minimum and low-esteem relationships. 


Self-doubts, insecurity, uncertainty, these are all part of life, and I can promise that it is just a passing cloud. If you are reading this, I want to remind you that, as long as you are focused on your goals and wake up with good intentions, you are doing great! 


Whatever you wish for is on its way. Believe this completely and keep going!

Let me brainwash you into watching sitcoms

  “I declare bankcruptcyyyy”  If you read that in Michael Scott's voice, then you are one of us, a sitcom lover. I started watching Sitcoms when I was in University. A Friends scene popped up on my YouTube recommendations. Ironically, I watched the finale first. But it was so funny and oddly comforting that I went back and binged all the seasons. Since then, I’ve fallen deep into the sitcom rabbit holes.  There is something about watching sitcoms which creates a safe and calm feeling. It will give you an instant feeling like you are included in something warm and pleasant. I believe this is the reason for people to rewatch the same sitcoms many times. Let me give you a few more reasons why you should start watching sitcoms. They are relatable I believe everyone has the urge to feel included, and sitcoms are best at doing it. Remember when Monica asked, “Do you have a plan?” and Phoebe responded with, “I don’t even have a pla ...”? It was hilarious and validating. It remin...

Tengah healing ke tu? A needed escape to Gunung Jerai

Sometimes all we need is a different perspective.  We often get caught up in routines and forget why we push ourselves so hard. At the core, it’s to live the life we dream of. And that takes effort, discipline, and sometimes, a bit of healing. I recently took a long-planned, but impromptu trip to Jerai Hill (Gunung Jerai), which allowed me to relax and stay mindful in the present moment.  To be very honest, I just wanted to escape from the scorching hot weather recently. Malaysia is filled with famous hill stations, and Gunung Jerai is an underrated one. Let me just walk you through everything I loved about Gunung Jerai.  Buckle up! (No, really) Like any hill destination, you need to drive through the beautiful greenery, which makes you think about what else is beautiful you haven't witnessed yet in life. The roads are well-maintained, and there are clear horn signs along the way. It’s a drive that asks you to be both careful and present, watching the road while soaking i...
