I just feel like sharing my thoughts on being courageous and fearless at this very moment – to gain the understanding that you can have all the great ideas in the world, but all ideas are free until you decide to act on them.
After all that’s said and done, and you’ve finally decided to sweep the dust off cover of the books you’ve shelved away, the only thing you’ve accomplished is Staying Stagnant. If you’re constantly relying on the same ol’ solution to solve all your problems that fall within the same category, then if you’re being real with yourself, there has simply been no progress.

The last straw came when I got a phone call I was not at all ready to take. What ensued can be lightly summed as a thunderstorm I wished had never happened – I felt emotions I didn’t usually feel, and said things I normally wouldn’t have said. Not my proudest moment, but it did happen… Continue reading

I could be generalising, and I don’t mean to be offensive – just speaking from personal perspectives: As a woman, I just need more attention. I don’t mean that we are screaming princesses who are constantly throwing tantrums. It’s just that we need to feel reassured, acknowledged and appreciated more often, and perhaps in a more apparent way than our male counterparts. I don’t know about you, but I find it hyper-frustrating that men and women resolve issues in such different ways, and this is expressed in the strengths and skillsets we generally exhibit.

People, just like you, are going to let you down. You’re going to sow into someone’s life so completely, and realise one day that it was a one-way street. That while you can choose to give unconditionally of your time and of yourself, it may just be an entitlemnet to someone else. So here are the questions I am going to ask myself from today onwards… Continue reading
Sorry for not blogging lately. Been really busy with my latest project in the consumer platform space. I have had a few readers who emailed me about why I am on a break, and what is the latest project that “coming your way in July 2014”. July is long past, and I’m finally ready to … Continue reading
Facebook has recently changed their settings again. But if you, like me, need to invite all your friends to like your Facebook page and can’t be arsed to click the “Invite” button 1,000+ times, then… THIS HACK WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE. Continue reading

I’ve been using Carousell since November of last year, and have been pretty much hooked ever since. As I just a few days shy of reaching my 5th month of officially being a Carouseller, I thought I’d be fun to write a tribute article to why I love being part of the Carousell community as much … Continue reading
