What the future hold?

Hmmm..... what is my next plan for next year? Or maybe 5 years? Or even 10 years later from now?. Hey mates, guess what? You are not alone. Thinking about the future has to be built from now. Some people already have future thinking and plan what to do next but on the other hand, there are a lot of people who don't have a future plan. So we may say the future is full of mystery. Start it now or it will be late later. However, there are several things we could do to make ourselves think about the future.

Forget about predictions. If we have somebody who could predict the future, don't try to believe them. Nobody could predict the massive world we have and what exactly these are going to look like. If somebody predicts the future, it means they focus on one particular event or point.

Motivate us to achieve our goals but in addition, if we do it right. The research has found that positive thinking about our future can backfire. Be professional, don't let your mind fantasise about you without any effort. It makes sense that having optimism could increase our ability to achieve our goals by following a good plan and being ready to act.

Future thinking is about readiness. Thinking about the future is also about imagining. It's about transforming how we think. How ready we are to face a massive world full of challenges. Also, future thinking is about seeing new possibilities. There are a million possibilities out there if we are willing to find it. The future doesn't just happen to us. We have agency in imagining and creating the kind of future we want to live in, and we can take action to get us there.

Alright, being future thinking is not difficult nor easy. It's a skill that we could learn and apply in our life. Our future is full of mysteries but we could imagine how and what will happen after 5 years, 10 years, or even 20 years. Sit down and relax, imagine yourself, make a plan, and catch that plan into reality. Believe me, we could do it. That's all for today, thank you and have a nice day 😀.

Leader Vs Boss

Some people might use the terms "boss" and "leader" interchangeably, but that's not entirely accurate. The truth is, some bosses are simply a boss. They have attained a position in the management section of the corporate pyramid. Those positions alone don't make them leaders. They are just pushing their employers while "sitting down". However, bosses can become leaders, and doing so should become a priority for those who want to effectively lead in the workplace. So, what is the difference between a leader and a boss? A boss refers to an individual who is in charge of the employee or an organisation. He exercises control over employees, assigns tasks, and duties to them, and is entitled to take decisions on some matters. There is no formal title like "boss" in the organisational chart, but the term indicates a person who is the owner or appointed as head of the organisation, department, or division. On the other hand, the term lea

About Phubbing

In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected. Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it? Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart

Early Birds and Night Owls

In this world, there are two kinds of people in this world, people who love to hear birds chirping in the morning, and people who wish the birds had a mute button somewhere. Someone likes the sun going up, someone likes the sun drowning to keep the night up. In other words, early birds and night owls. So, which one are you? Early birds or morning people. They are awake in the morning and love to welcome the new day. Early birds tend to go to bed early, wake up early, and feel their best as the day begins. As a general rule, early birds find a society more accommodating than night owls do. Early birds generally have an easier time adjusting to standard daytime schedules. On the other hand, night owls or night people tend to stay up late, enjoy sleeping in, have more energy at night, and feel tired after waking up early. Night owls do have a few downsides. They might have a harder time holding a traditional job. Young night owls might have trouble making a fixed school or univers
