It's the Dose That Makes It Poisonous

Anything can become toxic if it's taken too much. Your medications, addictions, hobbies etc. Knowing when to stop and reevaluate life is something that should be considered by anyone. Including me of course. I've always been into gaming ever since I was a little kid. Consoles, mobile, anything that catches my interest. I didn't really know what's my goal in life, at least not until I entered university. That was the very moment I realized I've wasted too much time doing something that only satisfies my short-term happiness or instant gratification.

    These days I've been trying to avoid doing those and fill up my day with things that can help me reach my long term goals. Although I still have cheat day. But hey, I'm improving. This is probably the most important thing to teach to a youngling, on how to value life and know their worth. That way they realize what they want to do in life and avoid things that don't add up to their growth. I was a careless kid, only wanted to play games rather than studying subjects. My parents told me that I should really read, study, go out etc but I didn't get why should I do those kind of things. I had a narrow mind, judgmental towards literally anything and didn't want to accept criticisms. But now that I see it they are actually good for my growth. 

You never know what the results are, but if you do nothing, there will be no results. - Mahatma Gandhi

    After having those thoughts I've been reading so much books and articles, sometimes I would skip lunch/breakfast/dinner just so I can continue and don't want to get interrupted. I was having the time of my life. Now, before you do something that you think it has a big impact to your life, consider what important tasks you have to do beforehand. You don't want to abandon your duties (although it feels great if we were to not think of them, procrastinate). If you need to eat then go eat, if you are sleepy then go sleep. Just remember not to spend more than how long you usually spend to maximize your one and only time in your life.

    Keep on growing, learning, anything you have been working on but don't overdo it. Trust me, you don't want to overdo it. Know when to stop and reevaluate your life.

Adios!

When u find some perfect light the only thing that shines so bright to guide ur eyes for a better sight and help u find what IS right so u wanna hold it tight, really tight and don't want it let go from ur side 'cause something would consume it, the night and if the condition says so, then fight! -Surabaya, 20092017.

Persist and Resist

No matter what the results are, keep doing it . You only get better when you don't stop. Even if you don't think you can pull it, just believe in yourself. If something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor. -Elon Musk      Start fresh. Do things slowly . Never expect big returns. Always think of the worst case possible scenario. Slow but sure . Stay away from distractions . Build up your confidence . Listen to music of your choice. But remember, take a quick break once in a while. Record your progressions. You will soon see how much you have improved . Adios!

Nothingness

One of these days I keep thinking of what I once thought when I was much, much, much younger. Nothingness . The existence of one is absent. Basically nothing is existing and there is only nothing out there.      Back then I was curious of what would you do after your body dies. What would happen after that. I was thinking that our brain is what makes us human. Controls what we do, decides what food we are going to have for lunch, what position do you have in this world, etc. Without that we are not really a human. We would be just like animals, using instincts for their survival in this world. Then one time I came across the idea of what would happen after you die. Nothing. You can not see anything, you can not think of anything, feel anything, no heartbeat, everything that were attached on our human body. With that in my mind I started to contemplate life more often regarding of what can I do to be immortal even if my body would decease eventually, what would my legacy b...
