Life Update

Post terakhir di Maret 2016.

Artinya, sudah hampir 4 tahun blog ini tidak di update. 4 tahun termasuk waktu yang cukup lama. Namun, entah kenapa ketika membaca kembali tulisan Saya, rasanya seperti menulisnya kemarin.

Mungkin begitulah bagaimana perasaan kita akan waktu. Kita tidak sadar waktu sudah banyak berjalan, tiba-tiba 4 tahun telah berjalan. Apa kabar, blog?

Sedikit update kehidupan, beberapa tahun ini telah banyak cerita yang tidak terceritakan. Namun, Gue akan recap semampunya.

2016 to 2020.. Here we go.




2016

  1. November -- Land my first job at Viventis Indonesia as Researcher.
  2. Found a love of my life.. Although I didn't mention it yet due to my prideful nature.
2017
  1. Realized what human needs is an activity. A repeatable set of activity which support their lives.
  2. Understand that time is money. Wasted time means wasted opportunities. Wasted opportunities = less money to be made.
  3. Getting serious about having a spouse. Pledge myself to focus on that one girl I love.
  4. Enjoy life as a professional, as they say. Promoted to Associate Consultant.
2018
  1. May 2 -- Get married with the love of my life.
  2. Made a wrong career move. I switched my position from recruiter to sales. Productivity starts going downhill as I cannot perform and didn't learn fast enough.
  3. I learned my own weakness. Something I need to overcome for years to come. I start picking up my pieces and learn how to be a lifelong learner. 
  4. I start to enjoy reading. Not reading books, but reading posts about business, entrepreneurship, productivity, and technology. I realized that learning could be done anywhere.
  5. My wife is pregnant a month after our marriage. Although it is not planned, I am grateful that God gave us this gift.
  6. I become more tech-savvy. I am always look for technologies that could help me work. I learn faster.
2019
  1. Our first child born at 1st of Februari. It's a she!
  2. Struggling to become a father.
  3. Financially struggling. Suddenly, all expenses are going up. Quite panicked a little bit. But there's always help comes from someone who is unexpected. Alhamdulillah.
  4. Productivity is going up. Learning becomes a habit.
  5. Leaves Viventis Indonesia.
2020
  1. My child is 1 years old! She's growing well. Her physical, social, and motor skills development is still on point.
  2. Move to Medan. Moving is (literally) so much pain in the ass. If possible, I wouldn't want to move and having as few items as possible.
  3. Started working at Yayasan Prof. Dr. H. Kadirun Yahya as Deputy CEO. Our big homework is to have a solid organizational governance. My grandfather's foundation is transitioning from 2nd generation to 3rd generation. I need to be aware as most companies are closed down in 3rd generation.
  4. Not as financially struggle as last year, but I need to learn how to manage money wisely.
I guess that's the sum of my life from 4 years ago. Looking back, it was quite a ride. I didn't think I would get here today.

However, I realized that who I am right now is the result of what I think important 4 years ago. To me, this organization is important. Having myself settling in is also something that I thought years ago. It takes 4 years to achieve it.

It means, if there is something that I think important today, it will be achieved in 4 years time. I guess, it's time to think what would my next big move be!

Having a healthy body and starting a new business seems nice.

Ilusi Ke-keren-an Dalam Organisasi Mahasiswa

Di dunia ini.. suka nggak suka, mau nggak mau, kita akan selalu dibandingkan dengan orang lain. Bebrapa contoh pembicaraan sehari-hari yaitu: "Lihat tuh si A, sudah sarjana dan sekarang kerjanya di perusahaan ternama! Kamu kapan lulus?" "Kamu tuh ya kok nggak pernah dapet ranking di kelas? Lihat teman kamu si B selalu masuk 10 besar!" "Wah, si C keren yah sekarang, sudah menikah dan memulai rumah tangga. Nggak tanggung-tanggung, langsung menikahi 3 wanita secara bersamaan. Kamu kapan?" (cukup jelas bahwa contoh ketiga merupakan karya fiksi ilmiah. Apabila ada kesamaan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, hal itu hanya kebetulan semata. Tapi kalo beneran ada, Subhanallah .) Intinya, orang lain terlihat lebih keren dan sukses dari kita. Itulah (mungkin) kenapa akhirnya muncul sebuah pepatah "rumput tetangga lebih hijau daripada rumput sendiri". Kita sering kagum akan apa yang orang lain bisa capai dalam kehidupannya. Padahal tanpa sadar, diam-di...
