Paper Bills to Coins to Cryptocurrency So I have posted my thoughts about the Philippine currency of having a coin version of the 20 peso bill at noise.cash.

Types of Readers: Which One Are You? I just recently finished reading Paulo Coelho's "***The Alchemist***" last week. The message was so clear and it was easy to understand. It talks about self-discovery and taking the risk for your ultimate dream even if you thought it will be a ladder filled with uncertainty. **A little background about the author** Paulo Coelho is a Brazilian author who took a long way to get his masterpieces rose to fame. His books are so easy to…
Receiving Too Much Hate? Choose To Be The Better Person Whether we like it or not, there will always be people who will never like us. Not everyone treats you the same as your family or friends do. They will always find that tiny spot from your kindness and take advantage of your vulnerability. Well, that's reality. We don't think alike. We can't force everyone to like you. Some may find you pretty, while others may not. Some see the goodness in your heart but some are…
How Should You Argue? ***It's not the goal of the relationship to be happy.*** It is because happiness is only an emotion. ***The ultimate goal is to have a satisfying and fulfilling relationship***. So basically, it is a ***combination of negative and positive emotions.*** It's not always about being happy together, it's about thriving together amidst the relationship's challenges and achievements. When a conflict arises, both parties are in high emotions and they usually…
Things I Can't Live Without As we grow, our bodies demand various things according to our needs. However, these things also vary depending on what type of person you are. So today, I decided to write a light-hearted article and just freely list down the things I can't live without. **Eyeglasses**. This will always be on my top list. I consider this as my best friend since it provides me the best vision it could give for me to see the world clearly. I remember when I was in…
How Will You Explain These Questions To A Child? When a kid turns 2 - 6 years old, you gotta prepare yourself for periodical exam-like questions or interrogations every day. During these ages, they usually ask a lot. By that time, they don't care if you get tired of explaining or if your answers make sense to them. They ask too random questions that you'll find yourself in awe of where did that come from. **I believe these are the common questions children ask adults:**…
Do You Lack Drive? For some reason, I expected you to think about a different drive (something sensual) that should be handled privately. It's not what you think. Well anyway, was there a time in your life where you lose motivation in doing anything? It's like when you wake up in the morning, that drive you used to have is slowly fading and you don't have that fire in your belly to get up and strive harder? I bet you have. I'd be more than amazed if you never have had that…
Who Are You In These 4 Types of Personalities? Are you a talkative type of person? Friendly? Sociable? Outgoing? Or are you the type of person who enjoys alone time and reserves energy for long stretches of the day at home? Did you wish you had his/her personality? Did you compare yourself to your friend and doubt yourself why you don't share the same skill and talent? If you are going to ask me all these questions, I'm guilty as charged. These questions had contributed a…
Why Do I Keep Quitting Myself? Do you also have this problem of being consistent with anything? You know, just random stuff that you like to do, and the next thing you know you find yourself lazy and feel demotivated? Guess what, I'm guilty again. Most of the articles I have written here reflect on my personality as well. I have noticed this problem of mine when I became a "***tambay***". It's a term you use for someone unemployed staying in their house for a long period of…
How To Distinguish Between Laziness and Burnout? Do you feel tired all the time? Like nothing interests you anymore even the things you used to don't seem to excite you anymore. Do you feel like you wanna spend the rest of the entire day or week in bed and do nothing? One would recognize this as mere laziness but this could be a different story already. Something serious that needs attention to get resolved as soon as possible. Burnout can often be mistaken as laziness for…
Are You Making The Most of Your Life? Every one of us has a fixed amount of time in this world. We don't really know when is our time. We are all gonna die, that's reality. But the question is, are you making the most of your life? Let's say each person lives in this world until 80 on average. That's approximately over 4000 weeks. As a 26-year-old girl, I have already spent 1355 weeks. What did I do during the 1355 weeks? All I know is that I was given a second chance to…
