Quick on actions. Patience on results.

Be quick on your actions. Whenever I have an idea, I start typing it down as soon as possible on my app for notes on my smart phone or laptop. Sometimes I write it down in my notebook. Next, I research and write my plan and strategy. If it looks doable, I execute my actions stated in my plan. I do my best to work on my small goals daily. Over time, these small goals compound, and so does my knowledge, skills, and relationships. If it’s a physical activity, I read up on it and then begin practicing it. If I enjoy the activity, I add it to my arsenal of physical exercises. Have patience on your results. Many successful...

Benefits of a Cold Shower!

Hawaii has been extremely humid for the past couple of months, the worse I've ever experienced in my lifetime living here (I'm born and raised on Oahu, Hawaii). Besides loving the air conditioning, I like to take a cold or cool shower that gives me a refreshing feeling! Well, there are a number of benefits of cold showers as I learned from reading articles from medical websites. For one, a cold shower is good to wake you up. When the cold water hits your skin, you get a bit of a shock that increases your heart rate and oxygen intake. You'll notice a greater alertness.   Second, after a workout, a cold shower will help relax and repair your muscles.  Third,...

The valuable lessons I learned as a Pearl City High School Charger!

Since I was asked to write for my Pearl City High School's 50th Anniversary Book (1971-2021) by my former teacher, Mrs. Arlene Aranita who I reconnected at a funeral for a close family friend, Mr. Eric Kanemoto who was my soccer coach, Cub Scout Master, and Pearl City Highlands Intermediate School teacher, and my dad's really close friend, I thought I could hit two goals in one strike by writing about it in this blog. For those of you unfamiliar with Hawaii, Pearl City High School is located in Pearl City on the island of Oahu, State of Hawaii. The draft of my article is as follows: The education and life skills taught by our teachers in our public grade schools...

How to be productive when you're anxious about your problems?

Productivity is something I'm constantly working on. On some days, I'm in the zone. Everything flows. I get amazing ideas! I'm able to figure things out rather smoothly! And importantly, I execute on a significant amount of work! Then, there are those days when my problems overwhelm me, stagnating my ideas, overwhelming my willpower to overcome issues, and slowing my progress on work. To increase my productivity on my challenging days, I do the following, which helps me tremendously: (1) Be present and put aside my fear of what may or may not happen tomorrow; (2) Focus on what I can control; and (3) Work on one thing at a time. Being present keeps me in the moment. I can't see the future, nor can I...
