Inspiring Video: "Follow Me to Work Day" by Michelle Phan

Sunday, November 25, 2012



A simple, sweet and beautiful video made comes from Michelle Phan, one of famous makeup guru that I know from Youtube. I don't know about her before, but I have watched her video once or twice. This is my favorite video so far, I always love how people documented their daily life and share it as a video, maybe someday I can make it too

This video mostly shows us how she does her morning routine, well, something surprises me, she flies A LOT for work, is that cool? She even works in a company that she owns, called Ipsy. After watching this video, I believe everyone of us wants to be like her. Maybe we don't commute by plane for work, but somehow we want to be settled with a job that we love, like Michelle does.

So this is a thing that I can share to all of you in today, I hope you guys have a really good evening. Stay awesome!

DAYDREAM RECENTLY

Sunday, September 16, 2012

What have I been up to recently? I'm pretty fine, life is good. Try to learn something new every day, still learn how to deal with myself. So, yeah... my life is so wonderful. It's too bad if I don't share something I have learned to all of you.

Few months ago, when I was reading Alanda Kariza's book, Dream Catcher, she wrote about Steve Jobs's commencement at Stanford University in 2005. I was wondering so I checked for it immediately on Youtube. My heart feels so warm, touched and more than that... inspired, by this amazing person. And suddenly, I found myself, I miss Jobs. 

Too bad, we lost the most powerful person in this world last year. But I believe, Jobs never regretted about how he gave all of his potential and big ideas for us from his big works. I'm not an Apple person, but at least, I learn something from this Apple Man. Okay, maybe I don't understand about what's new from Apple, iOS something bla bla bla. But, I do love ToyStory, Pixar short movies ( they're so cute overload!). Pixar would never born if Steve Jobs never got fired by his own company, Apple. Wonder why? Watch this video and trust me, in the time between fifteen minutes, you will get inspired too. No big deal, just stories from Jobs... (: 

"Sometimes life hits us in the head with a brick, don't lose faith." -Steve Jobs (1955-2011)

Do you know how to start an enjoyable day?

When you are ready to step outside the door to see world’s activities, do not forget to pick a comfortable pair of shoes to be worn. One has said, a good shoe gives a comfortable feeling to you, and will bring you to some place you have never imagined. After the most comfortable shoe has worn yet do not forget to whisper to yourself ‘I give thanks to God and I am ready for today!’.
  
When you are seeing the world, never forget to always put smile. Smile makes everything wonderful, smile gives warmth to all things. Give your smile to a steward who serves your breakfast, smile when you see a kid who is running happily to the school. Smile will bring you to a positive day.

When you are walking, I believe that would be a lot of gravels and stones on the street thus, if you are not careful, could make you stumble. As you are walking the journey of life, the road will not always be smooth. A lot of time you are unaware and stumble. Do not cry nor grumble. Stand on your feet and do not give up to continue your life journey.

When you are seeing the world, watch and be still for a sec. A lot of things going on that would give you an inspiration or an admiration of the work of His hands. The blue and white gradation the sky has, that is His beautiful painting. An old couple that is holding hands and walking at the park, is the most romantic romance that He writes. Have you realize any of these?

When you end your trip today, again, do not forget to give thanks to God that has led your trip. Have a good rest and continue to have a wonderful trip on the next day.

Have you start and finish the enjoyable days?

Apakah Harimu Menyenangkan?

Kamu tau bagaimana cara memulai hari yang menyenangkan? 

Ketika kamu siap untuk melangkahkan kakimu keluar pintu melihat aktifitas dunia, jangan lupa memilih sepatu yang nyaman untuk dipakai. Seseorang pernah mengatakan, sepatu bagus yang memberikan rasa nyaman padamu, akan membawa dirimu ke suatu tempat yang tidak akan pernah kita pikirkan. Setelah memastikan sepatu ternyamanmu, jangan lupa berbisik kepada dirimu sendiri, “aku bersyukur kepada Tuhan dan aku siap untuk hari ini!”. 

Ketika kamu sedang menjumpai dunia, jangan lupa untuk terus tersenyum. Senyum membuat segalanya indah, senyum membuat semuanya terasa hangat. Kamu bisa memberikan senyum kepada sang penjual kopi di mana kamu membeli sarapanmu, kamu bisa memberikan senyum ketika melihat anak kecil berlari dengan riang menuju sekolahnya. Senyum yang akan mengantarmu kepada hari yang positif.
 
Ketika kamu sedang berjalan, aku percaya akan banyak kerikil dan batu-batu kecil yang berserakan di jalan. Kalau tidak hati-hati, mungkin kamu bisa terjatuh. Sama halnya ketika kamu berjalan dalam kehidupanmu, perjalananmu nggak akan selamanya mulus. Seringkali kamu tidak hati-jati dan terhatuh. Jangan menangis, jangan mengeluh. Berdiri lagi dan jangan menyerah untuk melanjutkan perjalananmu.
 
Ketika kamu sedang memandangi dunia, amati dan diamlah sejenak. Banyak sekali kejadian yang akan memberikanmu sebuah inspirasi atau sekedar membuatmu kagum akan karya tangan-Nya. Langit yang mempunyai warna gradasi biru dan putih, itu hasil lukisan-Nya yang indah. Sepasang kakek dan nenek yang berjalan sambil bergandengan tangan di taman, itu adalah cerita cinta yang paling romantis yang Ia tulis. Apakah kamu pernah memperhatikan itu semua sebelumnya?
 
Ketika  kamu mengakhiri perjalanan hari ini, jangan lupa mengucap syukur kembali kepada Tuhan yang memimpin perjalananmu. Jangan lupa beristirahat, dan melanjutkan kembali perjalanan yang menyenangkan esok hari.
 
Apakah kamu sudah memulai dan mengakhiri hari-hari yang menyenangkan?
