Turning double 3s

Turning 33 today. With the baby coming in just a little over two months, I am viewing life in a different perspective. Things I have learnt this year:

  1. Your birthday is also the day your mother went thru the most pain. Give her a call and celebrate with her.
  2. Being a jack of all trades is not a bad thing. I am not the best engineer, not the most creative designer, not a great marketer, but I can be the best product manager at connecting the dots.
  3. Wealth === Health; but Health !== Wealth;
  4. Meditation does work. It trains your mind to stay focus. Multitasking is bad.
  5. Stay on a schedule and set aside time for the family. It’s important.
  6. Give yourself three seconds before saying no to someone. That is enough time to change your opinion.
  7. The only person you should compare yourself to is the person that you were yesterday.
  8. Life had two states: beautiful and suffer. Life is too short to be in a suffer state. Always put yourself in the beautiful state.
  9. Silence is golden when you don’t have a good answer.

More to come.
