We will never earn more if we never learn more.

Have you taken the time to look more into yourself, get to know yourself and of course dig deeper into your potential so that you can achieve your desired goals? Maybe it all sounds very trivial, but actually not everyone can recognize themselves.

The saddest thing in today's era is that people are busy following trends to get jobs faster, instead of getting to know themselves. Instead of honing their abilities to create high value.

That's why there are many statements that say that working smart is more important than working hard. But of course to be able to do the smart work phase we have to have a lot of hard work to reach that phase. One of the most basic is to know ourselves, dig up the potential from within ourselves to create high value.

Then, the simple question is, Have we invested in ourselves right now? In this daily blog, I'm not just about sharing my daily activities. But I also want to invite you to rethink your life goals. Maybe all this time you are busy with your daily work, as if time drowns you in your busyness.

The investment I mean here is not just about us investing in the form of money, then getting more profit from what we invest. In fact, I am talking about investing in ourselves so that in the future we can grow into individuals who have good values ​​and that can support our careers even better in this life. And later we can win competitions, especially in a healthy work community.

Investing In Sports Equipment

The older I get, the more I realize that health is the most important thing. Of course, if we are not healthy, we will have difficulty developing. It is difficult for us to teach even the simplest things, such as taking care of ourselves. So we have to invest some of our income to buy sports equipment.

I do prefer to exercise at home because the time fits my work schedule. So, I bought Dumbbells, Yoga mats, sports shoes and sportswear that are comfortable for me to wear.

For those of you who prefer to exercise at the gym or in other public spaces, you can also invest a little of your income to pay for membership at these sports places. Make sure you choose a comfortable sports place that fits your work schedule.

With a healthy body, your mind is also healthy. The heart is happier and we can achieve our desires more easily than when we are sick. Health is the greatest gift in this life.

Investing In Healthy Food

Eat to live meaningfully. Instead of just buying fast food or snacks that only satisfy our cravings for a moment, we can invest our money in healthy food.

There are many people out there who are reluctant to spend their money on buying healthy foods. They think the money will just run out and the food will come out as waste. That is a big mistake. In fact, food is related to our health. What we eat reflects the health of our body.

So we can rethink what we will give to our beloved body. Of course, we don't want to give the worst food to our bodies.

Currently, I am trying to eat healthier foods compared to my previous life. For example, for breakfast I prefer light food such as salad instead of high-carb foods.

For breakfast today, I chose chicken salad. Complete with sweet and fresh pineapple. Of course, complete with various colorful vegetables. With the salad dressing, namely Peanut sauce.

Investing In Books

In this digital era, books have begun to be forgotten. People have turned to scrolling social media. Hours of time are wasted. I often get carried away with my time spent scrolling videos, especially on YouTube and Instagram, which I myself don't even know what they are about.

I was once trapped by the social media algorithm that made me more and more excited to waste time in vain. So I started learning to control myself, namely with books.

Indeed, investing in yourself with this book is an expensive investment. The price of a quality book is indeed not cheap. But we will feel the benefits later.our future life.

Books not only give us a lot of information that we didn't know before. Books also provide relaxation benefits. Books are great to read before bed. It's like an activity that will relax you and make it easier for you to fall asleep faster of course!

Rather than scrolling through social media for too long and affecting eye health, I think reading books actually makes your eyes more relaxed. With a note, read books in a place with good lighting and as much as possible. Read books in a quiet place.

After a long time I didn't go to a bookstore, today I finally went to a bookstore again.

I was very happy to be able to touch hard copy books, not soft copies. This Gramedia bookstore has a complete collection of books.

I chose Self-Improvement Books. The two books I chose are best sellers. I bought these two books for the process of developing myself to be better in 2025.

A book that talks about habits. How can we change habits to be better, and that can make us increase our self-value better.

---

The other book is about motivation to think and grow rich. In my opinion, it is still connected to habits. So these two books are suitable to read.

I hope these two books can give me a lot of new insights and make me grow better and better in 2025.

Appreciate Yourself

If you like giving gifts to people you love, what if you also like giving gifts to yourself. A kind of self-reward.

The bookstore was in another city, the city I live in doesn't have a complete bookstore. So, the trip was quite tiring. I stopped at a cafe when I arrived in my city.

I ordered Matcha Latte to end my journey today. I smiled gratefully.

Today, God gave me the opportunity to make me grow better. I just want to increase my self-values ​​which in the end my skills can be useful to help many people, especially in the area where I live.

Thank you for reading my journey today! Don't forget to invest in yourself. Love yourself better ❤️
