That Sweet Eb Chord Is Years In The Making

January 31st, 2008 · 4 Comments · Reflection

This is probably one silly insignificant blog entry but hopefully you may be able to relate to some of the take home messages I found.
When was the last time you hear someone or even yourself saying “no, I can’t dance”, “I can’t play any instruments”, “I can’t paint”, “I can’t sing”, ”the only thing I can [...]

A New Theme For Year 2008

January 1st, 2008 · 10 Comments · Experience Sharing, Reflection

I am still learning this process of self-reflecting of the past and goal setting for the new year. Here, I am going to share with you what seems to work over the years, what doesn’t, and what my plan for 2008 is going to be. Let me tell you upfront what does not work: not planning [...]

How Rocky Inspires Me

March 24th, 2007 · 4 Comments · Reflection

Few friends of mine know that I am a huge fan of the Rocky movie series. Some whom I have talked to discount Rocky movies as bad acting or what-so-interesting-about-boxing. Rocky is written by Sylvester Stallone himself that mirrors his own struggle to stardom and is a celebration of his entire acting career (including the [...]

My Personal Scorecard for 2007

January 3rd, 2007 · 1 Comment · Experience Sharing, Reflection

I have been toying with the idea of publishing a book on Personal Scorecard with my ex-colleagues when I was providing professional service to the military units and formations in crafting out the Balanced Scorecards. Personal Scorecard is not easy as we may or may not know our purpose in life. Without knowing our purpose [...]

New Year Resolution in a Scorecard Style

January 1st, 2007 · 9 Comments · Reflection

For years I have my New Year resolutions written at the beginning of the year only to look at them again at the end of the year when I need to do a self-reflection. So this year I wanted to do away with such a pointless exercise. On the way back from the countdown celebration [...]

Reflecting Year 2004

January 23rd, 2005 · No Comments · Reflection

I know this is long overdued. January is almost over and I am looking back in year 2004? Well, believe it or not, I have written all these down on a piece of paper back during the new year period. Hopefully it is not the age that is catching up on me. Kind of felt [...]

Looking Back 1998

January 1st, 1999 · No Comments · From the Attic, Reflection

Year 1998 has been a very interesting year for me.  These are the events which were pretty significant in my ordinary life.

I have spent the new year day alone.  Well not exactly.  My driver of that time, Edi, took me to Pelabunhan Ratu, South of Java.
My second love affair had gone to drain some time [...]

Looking Back on 1997

December 25th, 1997 · No Comments · From the Attic, Reflection

Another Christmas day, alone on my own.  The background music?  Well, “Do they know it’s Christmas”.  Looking back the year of 1997.  A lot has happened.  Far too much.
But I have to write them down.  What’s life without memory?  Good or bad, they make up our past.  Hopefully, we can learn something out of it [...]

Last Stop - Beverly Hills (Again)

May 5th, 1997 · No Comments · Coincidence, From the Attic, Reflection

Really don’t quite understand why Colin is so in love with Beverly Hills.  To be honest, today was the second time we visited Beverly Hills.  What’s in BH?  Well, a lot of expensive shops and a lot of beautifully dressed people. T his time, we wore a bit smarter than last time and we did [...]

Of Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam

April 28th, 1997 · No Comments · From the Attic, Reflection, Travel Blog

Grand Canyon.  That was today’s plan. Well, I woke up half an hour later and Colin was very impatient.  Seriously, I need at least seven hours’ of sleep in order to be able to drive such a long distance.  And last night, we slept late.  As I have said before, if I have to get [...]
