“If you look at the components of long-term well-being, it has nothing to do with material goods. Once you’re past a certain level of material well-being, people’s long-term happiness and wellbeing is about having deep personal relationships, believing in something larger than themselves, and doing something meaningful that they enjoy.”- Daniel Pink

“Oh, you mean love. You mean the big lightning bolt to the heart where you can’t eat and you can’t work and you just run off and get married and make babies. The reason you haven’t felt it is because it doesn’t exist. What you call love was invented by guys like me to sell nylons.”- Don Draper

“For a long time, when I was younger, I waited to discover my purpose. It was only very recently that I realized purpose is something you are supposed to create for yourself.”- Dustin Curtis

“
When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family, have fun, save a little money.
That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact: Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you. And you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use.
Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.
”- Steve Jobs -
“What do you do when you drink a little bit on a Friday night, go out and dance? You know what I do? I stay home and CHANGE THE WORLD.”- John Mayer

“If you learn this single trick, Scout, you’ll get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view. Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.”- Atticus Finch
-
“The desire that we have to do something that’s never been done before means that the people who are around you generally will not encourage you to do it. Because if they were encouraging you to do it, then other people would be doing it already and it wouldn’t be unique.”- Seth Godin

Kadang gue punya ide, sesuatu yang belom dilakuin orang lain di sini, tapi pas gue ceritain ke temen-temen gue malah dapetnya kontra dan akhirnya ga gue kejar karena gue ga bisa ngelakuin sendiri. Kemudian beberapa bulan atau tahun kemudian ada orang yang ngelakuin itu and it works. It turns out to be a good idea.
Kesel sih kejadian begini, apalagi kejadiannya ga sekali. Tapi mungkin itu emang gue aja yang kurang gigih berjuang, atau kurang pinter pitching, atau kurang usaha cari partner yang satu visi.
Emang gue masih harus banyak belajar…

“Constant disappointment is a very good spirit to sometimes doing something halfway decent. If you’re really self-satisfied all the time, you probably are lousy.”- David Remnick

Gue ga ngerti dengan orang-orang yang ketika diceritakan tentang suatu ide atau plan, dia membalas dengan kritikan. Well, maybe you don’t see it, but there’s no need to shoot it down. Coming up with ideas and making them come true is hard enough even without other people discouraging you.

Gue rasa orang-orang ga bakal peduli dengan korupsi asal keadaan dia dan negara ini membaik.
Misalnya, andaikan suatu hari nanti kita dipimpin oleh seorang presiden yang bisa buat pembangunan berjalan merata, pertumbuhan ekonomi luar biasa, rakyat miskin berkurang drastis, lapangan pekerjaan dimana-mana, angka kriminal paling rendah sepanjang sejarah. Kalo tiba-tiba presiden ini ketauan korupsi, gue pribadi bakal bilang, “Biarin aja deh dia korupsi. Hidup gue sekarang lebih enak daripada presiden-presiden sebelumnya kok.”
Jadi kalo di dunia usaha ada istilah social entrepreneur, entrepreneur yang lebih ngejar impact sosial daripada urusan duit doang. Di negara ini, apabila emang korupsi ga bisa hilang sepenuhnya, gue nungguin social corruptor aja deh. Seseorang yang… well… korupsi, tapi tetap lebih mementingkan impact-nya ke masyarakat dibanding duit yang akan dia terima aja.

I wish that when I was younger I could have met my current self. We would have sat down at a coffee shop so that I could explain life to young me in terms that only we would understand. It would have saved me a lot of hardship.
You can listen to all the sage wisdom you want, but things only make…

Even after all this time
The sun never says to the earth,

A love like that,
It lights the Whole Sky- Hafiz of Persia -
“Seriously, if you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it’ll spread over into the rest of your life. It’ll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level.”- Bruce Lee

Say hello to mechanically separated chicken. It’s what all fast-food chicken is made from—things like chicken nuggets and patties. Also, the processed frozen chicken in the stores is made from it.
Basically, the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve—bones, eyes, guts, and all. it comes out looking like this.
There’s more: because it’s crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia, soaked in it, actually. Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially. Then, because it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color.
But, hey, at least it tastes good, right?
High five, America!
