Expect sunset in this peaceful land

The world to this day is still facing a very serious problem, a lot of people are suffering from various problems that arise in the modern era now. Humans from various parts of the world are also struggling to survive from the rigors of life in this world.
Starting from 2019, people are struggling to deal with a pandemic that is very detrimental and makes humans fight desperately to deal with the covid 19 outbreak. The economy was immediately destroyed after several countries decided to lock down. Everyone must stay at home to prevent the spread of COVID-19 to those around them. Lots of people died because of this plague, especially in old people. Most of the elderly people do not have a good immune system and they are also very weak physically.
In contrast to people who are still young and have a strong immune system, they will be able to survive and will only be handled by medical personnel to be quarantined, be it in a hospital or in a special place for quarantine.
After struggling for more than 2 years, the status of what was once a pandemic has turned into an epidemic, which indicates that the world is starting to improve. And human activities have started to return to normal without having to be limited by the rules of health protocols in each country.
Not long after covid 19 began to disappear, a new problem emerged that was faced by the world, namely the war between Russia and Ukraine which had an impact on the whole world.
Ukraine's desire to join NATO and several other problems that occurred between the two countries made the Russian leadership furious and began to invade Ukraine with their military. After a few days of war between the two countries, Ukraine certainly cannot face Russia alone because Russia is a very strong country in terms of its military. Ukraine asks NATO for help in repelling Russian troops in Ukraine.
Nato sends its stockpile of advanced weapons to fight back against the Russians. But instead of ending the war, this actually prolongs the problem of the conflict.
Even now, the conflict is getting wider, from what was once only Russia and Ukraine to Russia against the Natos. This is very bad for the world. They are great leaders to maintain world peace instead fighting only for power and peace or their own gain.
After a long war, the world's economy has become worse than it was when COVID-19 existed. Inflation occurs all over the world which makes it difficult for people to get food and other necessities to live.
It is also reported that this is the highest inflation after the last 40 years that occurred in the US, which of course has a very large effect on the world economy. In addition, the world is also faced with a food crisis that will occur, it is because Ukraine as the largest wheat producing country in the world is experiencing a war that has not ended.
This world is quite old, humans should keep this world in peace. But instead of maintaining peace, humans are increasingly destroying this earth. All humans certainly want peace, but this is the fact that is happening now.
Everyone definitely wants to go back to how they used to be when they were still peaceful and could see the beautiful sunset in this peaceful land.
Is breakfast important?
Saturday
Date: 13 August 2022
Breakfast is often a problem for office workers in big cities. The influence of a hectic morning routine to thinking about ways to go to work makes breakfast forgotten. In fact, according to some nutritionists, eating in the morning is considered the most important meal for the body. Breakfast can also help a person's performance in carrying out daily tasks effectively. When you wake up, your blood sugar is usually low.
In fact, this is what makes your muscles and brain work well. With breakfast, your body can get the energy it needs to operate optimally. Without breakfast, the body will feel weak. Not only that, with breakfast, a person's mood can be much better than people who don't eat in the morning.
Doing breakfast is just a matter of routine. You just need the intention to keep doing this. Well, if you are still not sure about eating food in the morning, there are several reasons you should pay attention to in the article below.

**1. Restore lost energy**
Have you ever wondered why breakfast has an English breakfast? That's because breakfast is indirectly iftar after a night because we only spend the night sleeping and so don't eat anything for a few hours.
During sleep, our body still uses fuel to maintain its function. As a result, our blood sugar levels and glucose reserves are lower in the morning.
Drinking a glass of milk for breakfast is a great way to restore energy in the body. And people who do that every day have a much better body condition than those who don't eat anything.
**2. Increase brain productivity**
On average, the human brain consumes 20 percent of the body's energy supply, mainly by utilizing glucose in the blood. One way to keep our brains productive in the morning is to eat breakfast.
By eating food in the morning, the body will have the nutrients needed by the brain. Consumption of glucose in the morning will make our brain productive and help you continue to concentrate on anything at work.
In addition, nutritious food in the morning will also keep you alert for something that will disturb, such as sleepiness. However, there is one caveat that must be considered before breakfast, namely overeating can make the body overdo the digestive process. This will make you frequent the toilet. So, eat in sufficient portions as needed.
**3. Maintain weight**
Consuming food for the morning is often associated with a more proportional body weight. In addition, by eating in the morning, people will have a lower risk of being overweight and obese than those who eat a lot of food during the day.
Breakfast can increase the body's response to overeating during the day and prevent snacking. Those who eat in the morning are also known to be more active, which means they burn more calories.
**4. Increase energy for activities**
Stomach hunger is one of the negatives of not having breakfast in the morning. These problems are not the only bad effect of not eating breakfast, but there are many more.
Without breakfast, you will only have energy during the day – and that's when you eat lunch. Forgetting to eat breakfast can make you feel unmotivated to go through the day. When you don't have breakfast, your metabolism will decrease and you can feel weak.
Breakfast is important to support daily activities, such as work. In addition to having an impact on health, breakfast also has an impact on productivity and mood.
***Well, because of the many benefits of breakfast, it is clear that it is very important and indeed we should make it a habit to have breakfast in the morning to start the day with enthusiasm and full of energy.***

The thing that makes your confidence go down
Friday 29 july 2022
Confidence is very important in everyday life. Well, generally self-confidence is not fixed and can change. And did you know that there are things that can weaken your self-confidence.
**Here are some things you should pay attention to, don't let your confidence drop because of the following things.**
**1. Negative Thinking**
Negative thinking is not completely negative. In certain cases, negative thinking helps a person to think realistically as well as preventively. But on the other hand, when you allow your mind to be full of negative things, your self-confidence will decrease instantly. Of course it is very unfortunate if you cancel doing something even though it can bring great opportunities and benefits.
**2. Don't focus too much on other people**
When you focus on other people for their achievements, you will surely forget that there is yourself that must come first. Don't focus too much on other people's accomplishments because it will make you feel like you are compared to those who are already successful. It will certainly lower your confidence. Remember that everyone is born and raised differently, don't let other people's standards of life apply to you.
**3. Too Perfectionist**
Being too perfectionist at something can make you lose confidence over time. You will feel that what you are doing is always missing something and want to keep improving it. But it doesn't end, then you start to feel insecure about what you're doing.
**4. Don't criticize yourself too often**
Self-criticism can have a negative effect on us, the more often you criticize yourself without self-appreciation, the greater the potential for decreasing self-confidence you have. So instead of criticizing yourself, you better add strong motivation to your next goal.
**5. Don't overuse social media too often**
There are many happy stories of other people that you see on social media, which you may think is very opposite to your current situation. You will feel nothing when you see other people's lives on social media. But know that social media doesn't really show someone's real life. It's better to reduce playing social media when it actually lowers your self-confidence.
**6. Not too prominent in doing good**
Doing good to others is a noble deed and an honorable attitude, but it is important to place limits on how much you are willing to help others and have the awareness to know when your kindness is being used by others. Always trying to please everyone to the point of sacrificing yourself can make you insecure even to simply refuse other people's uncomfortable requests or express your needs.
**7. Find a good friend**
Not only factors from your mind but also external factors such as the environment can also have a big influence on self-confidence. Being surrounded by people who constantly discourage you and make you feel like you're not good enough can make you lose your confidence. Good friends will make you grow. But if you're not growing, you have to be smarter about choosing better friendships. Self-introspection is important, even when it comes to building self-confidence.
With self-introspection, we try to judge ourselves about what is already good and what still needs to be improved.
If you yourself rarely or never even take the time to introspect yourself, this could be the reason why your self-confidence is getting weaker.
So, the things above can actually make your self-confidence weaken, especially if you don't realize it right away.

The risk to your hair when shampooing every day
Friday 8 July 2022
Although shampooing is part of the care and cleanliness of our hair, it doesn't mean we have to wash it every day. Anything in excess will lead to problems you don't want.
Basically, shampooing is an activity to clean the hair against the buildup of dirt, one of which is dust, dead skin cells, and sweat. The use of shampoos is super effective in getting rid of all this. Unfortunately, the natural oils that the scalp needs to be moisturized are also rinsed away.
If we wash our hair every day, this will cause the natural oils that are needed by the hair to be eroded. If this oil is removed, hair can become dry, not properly nourished, and prone to breakage. Although not always bad, but the impact of shampooing every day has consequences for your hair.
**Here are the hair problems that you can experience if you wash your hair every day**
(Source image) https://unsplash.com/photos/Md_DhaFsnCQ
**1. Hair shaft becomes dry and tangled**
Too often shampooing can cause sebum production on the scalp layer to be drastically reduced. This oil is not distributed properly, so the hair shaft becomes drier. Well, the effect is that your hair becomes drier and more tangled, especially if you forget to use conditioner.
**2. Easy splitting and hair loss**
After dry and easy to tangle, the next effect you will experience is that your hair becomes more easily branched. Hair that is not properly lubricated will lose its flexibility. So when the hair shaft is not flexible, it will become brittle.
**3. Hair color becomes dull**
The function of hair oil on the scalp and hair is very useful. In addition to nourishing and moisturizing the hair, hair oil also gives a healthy shine to the hair shaft. Without oil on our scalp, hair will look duller.
**4. Oily scalp**
Then shampooing too often will make the scalp more oily? Even though shampooing is actually to avoid oil, but there is a reason to answer this question. The brain is a machine that is smart in protecting its own body. When the scalp feels dry, the brain will send a signal to the body to produce more oil in areas that are less hydrated. As a result, the health of the hair on the scalp becomes even more oily and limp.
**5. Dandruff triggered by skin irritation**
Dandruff does not appear as a result of an oily scalp. An irritated and dehydrated scalp can also experience dandruff. The most uncomfortable, usually dandruff due to irritation will be accompanied by itching. Usually this will be experienced by those with sensitive scalps. To keep the scalp healthy, it is recommended to shampoo every 2 days.
**6. Hair color fades quickly**
If you like to dye your hair or your hair is now colored with hair dye, don't wash it too often. Because the more often you wash your hair, the more it will fade. Shampoos are very effective at rinsing and removing the chemicals that make up the pigment in your hair shaft. As a result, hair fades faster. You should not wash your hair too often if your hair is colored. Leave a gap of about 3 days or every 4 days to wash your hair.
**Those are some risks if you wash your hair too often. It looks trivial, but if you ignore it too much, it will cause hair damage without you knowing it.**
**Tips**
*Use hair vitamins if your hair is already damaged, it will reduce the damage to your hair.*

History of the Bima Temple
Friday July 1 2022
**Bima Dieng Temple, separated from other temple**
**Dieng**
Dieng is a highland area in Central Java, which is part of the Banjarnegara Regency and Wonosobo Regency. It is located in the west of the Mount Sindoro and Mount Sumbing complexes. People never get tired of talking about and discussing the location of this highland, there are many kinds of tours offered in this place, and the distance between each of these attractions is not that far apart. Many tourists think that Dieng is only famous for its lake tourism and crater tours, but who would have thought that there are historical attractions that we should not miss when visiting the Dieng plateau.
**History Tour**
Usually somewhere there is a history that underlies the place to be known or remembered, one of which is the Dieng Plateau. There are many historical backgrounds that became the milestones of the beginning of this area such as the early history of the formation of the Dieng Plateau which started from the Ancient Prau Mountain which erupted and caused landslides around the mountain which formed the Dieng Plateau and formed several hills and other small mountains.
In addition to the history of the early formation of the Dieng plateau, there is also a history of the temple which is thought to have been built in the 8th century. Dieng Temple is a collection of temples located at the foot of the Dieng mountains, Wonosobo, Central Java. The Dieng Temple area occupies a plain at an altitude of 2000 m above sea level, extending in a north-south direction about 1900 m with a width of 800 m. is the oldest temple in Java.
The temples in the Candi Dieng area are divided into 3 groups and 1 independent temple which is named after the name of the character in the wayang story adopted from the Mahabharata. The three temple groups are the Arjuna Group, the Gatotkaca Group, the Dwarawati Group and one independent temple is Bima Temple.
**Bima Temple**
Bima Temple is the largest temple building among a collection of temples in Dieng that has been found. Bima Temple is located alone on a hill and is isolated from other temple buildings. This building resembles a temple building in India which consists of three levels. The foot of the temple has a square base plan measuring 4.55 m x 4.55 m, but because on each side there is a slightly protruding viewer, it is as if the basic plan of Bima Temple is in the shape of an octagon.
The viewer at the front protrudes about 1.5 m, serves as a viewing booth to the main room in the body of the temple. The performers on the other three sides form niches where the statues are placed. Currently everything is empty. None of the statues are still left.
**Location Access**
To visit Bima Temple is very easy, Bima Dieng Temple is located in another Dieng tourist area, right next to the entrance to the Sikidang Dieng Crater tourist attraction and not far from Telaga Warna and Dieng Theater. If from Telaga Warna, you will pass a T-junction, go right to Sikidang Crater, Candi Bima, while to the left go to Dieng Theater. turn left until you find another T-junction, go left towards Sikidang Crater while straight towards Arjuna temple complex. The location of the temple is next to the T-junction.
Meanwhile, there is no charge for admission to the Bima temple, and parking fees are also not collected. and although to enter the location of this temple is free and the package is cheap, visitors are expected to maintain and care for the cleanliness of this temple location. because the age of the Bima Dieng Temple is indeed very old and more than 1000 years ago and there have been many holes and shifts between the temple rocks caused by volcanic vibrations and earthquakes or age factors. The visitors are expected to maintain the preservation of this temple by complying with the regulations that have been made, not scribbling on the temple rocks or climbing the temple walls.
Characteristics of people who are easily offended
Tuesday 28 June 2022
People who are easily offended may often misunderstand other people's intentions or maybe because they are too sensitive and often misunderstand other people. On the other hand, irritable people don't easily show when they're angry or upset with someone and would rather avoid it, and that's why they also prefer to be alone than social.

And here are some signs of someone who is easily offended.
**1. Not being strict with yourself**
People who are easily offended include having a poor IQ because they are unable to balance their attitudes, behavior, and thoughts. They do not have certain limits in their life. So he will easily take bad things from other people, such as words that make them feel bad. This includes being self-deprecating.
**2. Prefers to be alone**
Sensitive people tend to prefer to be alone. Not because they are arrogant but because they are very vulnerable and fragile which makes it easy for them to misunderstand others. So it makes them tend to prefer to work alone. In fact, if they had to go out with other people, they would definitely be picky.
**3. Ignoring the problem yourself**
In contrast to people who are easily offended, they are not like most people who will face problems, they prefer to avoid the problem. Sensitive feelings make him think too much, so he thinks when facing a problem, it will make it bigger. On the other hand, they often think that the problem will solve itself.
**4. No sense of humor**
Irritable people are very difficult to joke with, even when something is really funny they rarely laugh. They may interpret differently what other people are saying, so something funny can hurt them.
**5. It's easy to hold grudges**
Sensitive people prefer to keep their emotions to themselves rather than letting them out. Thus, it is easy for them to hold grudges for a long time. They actually need to let go of feelings like that, because maybe what they have in mind is just a misunderstanding. This is also a response that they are less able to control stress.
There are many other signs of an irritable person, such as easily feel stressed, often make the same mistakes, do not know their own emotions, often misunderstand other people, likes to hold anger, or blame others for what they feel. Those are some signs of an irritable person, if you have these signs, maybe you need to be more open and get along with many people to make it easier to regulate emotions and understand other people.

Many choices mean less sales
Wednesday 22 June 2022
If you've ever thought you've created a lot of products and services, so that it can cater to each of your customers, but why are only a few selling?
In the past, many people did not have many choices in life because of limited technology or capital. And now our generation has many choices, whether they want to work in the office, online or offline business and in each alternative, we are presented with many more choices.
(Image) https://unsplash.com/photos/4eBOAeFfY0w
Do you think that with the many alternative choices you think you are much luckier? It turned out not to guarantee and even quite the opposite. If you have ever read a book from Barry Schwartz entitled The Paradox of Choice 'Why More Is Less'. You can also find conclusions from the answers to these problems in the book.
For most people, having to choose one of many alternatives can make them feel burdened, the more choices the more burdensome they will be. Then as a result they will give up and it is better not to choose at all.
This could be the cause of the emergence of a confused generation, they are confused about what to do and it seems that it is because they are given too many choices.
There is a psychologist who once conducted experiments in a supermarket, he invited visitors to taste the choices of bread jam that had been prepared. Then the visitor will be given a discount faucet if he buys the bread jam. There are two display options, in the first display, it displays 24 choices of jam and on the second display there are only 6 choices of jam.
And what happened was, only 3% of visitors bought the first display, while on the second display there were 30% of visitors who bought. That is, customers are more likely to buy if there are fewer choices. Now look at the products you have offered, how many products do you offer and how many variants of each product are there. It can cause your customers to be confused and end up buying nothing from your product.
For example, I often experience this when I come to a restaurant, there is a menu book with a total of 6 pages and on each page there are 20-25 types of food that I can choose from, there I even get confused which one to choose.
Our job as innovators is to make the lives of our customers easier, not more complicated. We have to think hard for our customers, not the other way around.
Everyone can make a product with many choices, but not everyone is able to create a product that can meet customer needs well.
`If you want a little but get a lot or a lot but we get only a little, you decide for yourself.`

When will the market crash end?
Sunday 19 June 2022
We know that the crypto market has had a very severe crash this year, especially in bitcoin which has fallen 49% since the start of the year or maybe now more. And the American stock index also fell 21% percent, even NFT, which was once reported to be a new digital asset, is now starting to be abandoned. So when will all this bad news end? or is this the end of everything?
It seems that this year is not an easy year for our investment, it's better if we are more careful with our chosen assets until 2023 later. Indeed, the decline in assets with high risk is a good opportunity for us to enter, but we must also be vigilant and selective. That's because every crisis there are always new rich people, but also new poor people.
In times like this we can see which assets or companies will survive, because of good fundamentals or go bankrupt because they only rely on people's folly. So the biggest question to this day within us is, when will all this end, when will this crash end, when will bitcoin hit the old-time hight again.
And all these questions depend on one thing, namely the interest rate of the fed and this is probably the best time to study the effects of the macro economy on investment assets. This is very important because this will definitely happen again in the future. So for novice investors, be sure to learn this when our capital is still small, because if this happens again the damage effect will not be too severe.
**Inflation in America is too high**
The effects of the war between Russia and Ukraine caused inflation around the world to be too high, especially in America and even this is the highest inflation in the last 40 years. In January 2022, 7.5% of commodity prices all rose in the US and an increase in interest rates is always not good for high-risk investment assets.
**It all started with covid 19**
(Image) https://unsplash.com/photos/rnr8D3FNUNY
If you recap from the beginning, it all started with covid 19, at that time everyone was forced to stay at home, everything became difficult because all activities stopped. In order to revive the economy and prevent unemployment, the government from all over the country has issued various policies, one of which is giving cash to the people.
Interest rates are also lowered to very low so that people are not interested in putting their money in the bank. Finally people start investing to get a higher return. As a result of crypto and bitcoin prices, stock prices both in the US and other countries are all to the moon.
But what drove all the increases was the dumb money. After bitcoin touched $60,000, tesla $1,000 and many other assets to the moon, a lot of new rich people appeared who might be smart or maybe dumb.
They are added by ordinary people who want to spend like they used to, which eventually pushes up the inflation of goods. But at the same time, the supply side that produces goods has not returned to normal capacity and many sellers have gone bankrupt during the pandemic.
In addition, there was the war between Russia and Ukraine, China's relockdown which disrupted the supply of coal, oil, gas, wheat and food. So that the price of commodities rises and automatically the prices of finished materials will rise too, if the price of goods rises, **inflation will automatically occur.**
**So is inflation necessary?**
Yes, sometimes inflation is needed because it indicates the economy and purchasing power is growing, but this year, especially in America, it is already very unnatural. All basic necessities there went up and the US central bank government had to immediately reduce inflation and one way was `interest rates`.
From the explanation above, I hope you understand the chronology of the origins of the phenomena that have occurred so far.
**Interest rates rise but still crash**
Maybe there are still people who are confused about why interest rates can go up but crash. For inflation that is already too high, the central bank must raise interest rates, so that money can enter the bank again.
We take for example if the deposit interest is *2% per year*, it is not attractive, we are looking for other alternatives such as bonds, mutual funds, stocks or even crypto.
But when deposit rates rise by 8% (**for example**), surely many of us will think of just putting money in the bank, because it is safer there and the interest is decent. This is what makes stocks, crypto and NFT go down because the money goes back to safer assets and the returns are decent now.
So this is why we often call it, easy money era is over. Because to get money, the point is interest rates at the bank, if interest rates go up and we will borrow money, it means the interest on loans is more expensive. So after knowing the source of the problem, **we understand the solution.**
**So this crash will end, when the FED interest rates stop rising and the FED interest rates stop rising when inflation levels return to normal.**
**Then what is the normal level of inflation?**
If we look at the history of normal inflation, it is around 1-2% per year, compared to the current 8% per year.
If someone asks why inflation and American interest rates are the point, it's because 60-70% of world trade uses US dollars. And whatever happens in the US will certainly be followed by other countries. And the problem now is that inflation is still very high and there is no sign that it will go down, therefore interest rates will continue to increase gradually until 2023/2024.
The world economy estimates that interest rates will reach 2.5% in the long term, while now we are still in the middle of 2022 at least there is still 1 year left until interest rates stop rising. But no one knows what will happen tomorrow, we can only predict from existing data and signals.
**So to find out that this crash will end, we have to check inflation data and US interest rates every month.** You can check on the website, Trending Ekonomics. https://id.tradingeconomics.com/

What do you want to change from this world?
Tuesday 14 June 2022
If you get a question like that whether it's from your friends, your relatives or even from people you don't know, then answer the question with what is in your heart and mind.
Of course, with a positive answer, even though you are the one being asked, but you certainly don't think the answer is only positive for yourself, but for the cloth people as well.
Then if I am asked this kind of question myself, then I will change this world with happiness, well that's enough for me. You can imagine, for yourself if there is no happiness in this world anymore, in the sense that this world is no longer peaceful, war is everywhere, crime is rampant, and there are many other bad things in this world that will happen in the future. If all that happens, there will be no such thing as love and happiness on planet earth.
Money can buy everything including happiness, is it true?
[Image] https://unsplash.com/photos/ir5MHI6rPg0
Some say, money is not everything, but everything requires money. Then if we have a lot of money we are guaranteed to be happy?
It depends on how you can enjoy the money or not and you can use the money well or not. If you carelessly use the money, I'm sure it will only be a moment of happiness. Then what can't you enjoy if you have a lot of money, for a simple example you have a lot but you are sickly.
You try to go to a doctor with very expensive treatments and fees to pay for it all but it doesn't go away. How can you enjoy your money and be happy in your life if you have a lot of money but you are sick and sick. Only by being grateful even though we have mediocre money, I am sure this life will feel happier.
So do you think money can give us happiness? We can talk about this in the comments.
Eliminate words or feelings of hate and revenge

Although this sounds ridiculous but by eliminating the hatred and grudge against loyal humans, I believe the big problems in this world will disappear.
There will be no war, all live in peace and the world becomes full of love. We live on a very beautiful planet and why do humans destroy their own homes just because of hatred and revenge from the rulers.
We can see an example of the war that took place between Russia and Ukraine, for other people who are in other countries do they feel peaceful and happy about this?
**Of course not**, we see an example of the impact of all this, inflation rose very high and even according to some news reports this was the largest inflation for the last 40 years. So by eliminating grudges and hatred, I believe the world will continue to be peaceful and human life will be prosperous.

*This is just my random thought, I don't mean to offend anyone and what I write is purely from my own thoughts and that is what I wish for this world.*
So that's what I have in mind, basically happiness is everything in our life, so keep our earth smiling.

The beauty of Sembungan Village in the Dieng Plateau
Monday 13 June 2022
There is a village in the Dieng plateau which has very beautiful natural scenery and this village is also claimed to be the highest on the island of Java. The altitude reaches 2,260 meters above sea level, with this altitude, the air temperature in the morning reaches 10 ° - 15 °. At night it can be colder in the range of 3°-9°.
Because of its height, Sembungan village is a tourist attraction that is very often visited by tourists, both local and foreign tourists. In fact, if we take a glimpse of this Sembungan village, we will see like a beautiful painting. Many foreign tourists have admired Sembungan village since the first time they came to this village. Possibly, long before this village was known in advance.
Sembungan Tourism Village is the highest and the last village in the Dieng plateau. Its altitude reaches 2,260 meters above sea level and is the highest village on the island of Java. Sembungan village is located 7 km from the tourist center of the Dieng plateau, besides Sikunir Hill, tourist destinations in this area are Cebong Lake, Pakuwojo Mountain and Sikarim Waterfall. To reach this village is not difficult because the road access is good, besides that you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery and the air is also cool while on the way there. Plus a peaceful village atmosphere because in the middle there is a lake.
The residents in Sembungan village mostly work as farmers of fruit, vegetables and other plants. Life in this village is quite busy, because it is close to tourist attractions such as Sikunir Hill, Arjuna Temple and Cebong Lake. In addition to advancing in agriculture, the residents there are also very successful in managing the tourism objects that are there.
Some of the residents' houses are used as homestays or temporary residences. In addition, there is also a campground around Lake Sikunir.
In this village we can also see the beautiful scenery from the hills, lakes, to the mountains that surround the village. Some of the mountain views that can be seen are Mount Prau, Merbabu, Merapi, Sindoro, Telomoyo, Ungaran, and Lawu.
If you like to climb mountains, you can also rent the equipment that is there and can leave your vehicle at the residents' homes. No need to worry because your vehicle will be guaranteed to be safe and guarded by the residents there.
**So if you want to visit this village you can also visit other tourist objects as I mentioned earlier.**
The type of person you should not trust
Thursday:9 June 2022
Have you ever trusted someone you shouldn't have trusted or maybe you were betrayed by someone close to you. Maybe there are also people who make you disappointed or make you regret because you never thought to trust them?

The foundation of all healthy relationships is trust or mutual trust. We all need to be able to trust the people around us if we are to have a successful relationship with them. After all, trust is the reason why we can share our problems with others, tell people how we really feel, and ask for their help and support.
Without trust, there can be no communication, respect, honesty or emotional connection. And if these things don't exist, then it's only a matter of time before the relationship we started will fall apart.
The following are the types of people you should be careful to believe in them.
**1. People who like to spread secrets**
If you have a friend who likes to gossip, do they keep talking about other people behind their backs or spreading gossip just for fun? If so, then you have to be more careful with them, because they might talk about your disgrace behind your back to other people.
With that, they have no guilt with spreading the secret to others. Even if you think of them as friends and they swear to you not to tell anyone, never trust them.
Usually they are also very good at creating unnecessary drama just for fun, they don't really care about who they hurt or insult, as long as it makes for an interesting story.
**2. People who talk badly about other people**
Yep, actually for the second type this is the same as people who like to gossip. Those who talk badly about other people, you can't trust either. They say that someone is their friend, but when the other person upsets them, they will talk bad about you just to let out all the frustration that is hidden inside them. So, never make the mistake of putting your trust in someone who is always badmouthing other people.
**3. People who lack self-awareness**
Someone who has a self-conscious nature tends to be indifferent, insensitive, and selfish. They are so busy thinking about themselves that they fail to see how their words and actions affect those around them. Then they also cannot be held responsible for their own actions, because what they care about is themselves.
**4. People who lack empathy**
Empathy is defined as the ability to understand the people around us and build a humorous relationship with them. So when someone is unable to empathize and puts themselves in the shoes of another, they are more likely to betray you just to get what they want.
**5. People who can't make decisions**
People who can't make their own decisions you also can't trust because they are the type of people who are clumsy and hesitant to do something or keep something. They themselves really don't know what they're going for, so you can't really trust them to keep their word.
For example, if they will cancel the appointment at a time that is approaching the day of the agreement or stay away from you and do something more fun and interesting that comes at the same time as the promise he made.
**6. People who can't take the answer "no"**
If you've ever come across someone who has a hard time understanding that doesn't mean no, then you have to be careful. People like this tend to be stubborn, but they can also be very cunning.
They will try to manipulate you into agreeing with them or doing what they want, so never be fooled by them, because they may seem nice, but they are only acting like this because they want something from you. So when you tell them "no" then don't be surprised if they immediately change their attitude towards you which was good will turn into bad.
**7. People who act differently around other people**
Usually this type of person in acting when with you and when with other people will be different. We can call it a two-faced person, usually this person will always act differently from what is said to one person to another. Because, by showing this behavior, their kindness is just fake and they don't really care about you.
**So if you have a problem or a secret that you tell a friend, don't ever tell it to the type of person described above, because they will definitely tell your secret to others.**
Don't fall in love with your idea
Tuesday
Date 7 June 2022
You must have heard or read successful business quotes starting from an idea. And yes it is true, the big business that is successful today started from a simple idea from its founder. But you also have to be careful, because your idea could be the killer of your own business.
**How could that be?**
[Image] https://unsplash.com/photos/iR3dtvKmwAw
Lots of ideas usually pop into our heads, and they usually come out maybe when we eat, play, are in the bathroom or even before you sleep. And when an idea comes up, you believe that idea can be a solution for your steps, it can even change the world.
So you tell your best friend, and at that moment he is interested in your idea. Then you decide to start a business with a business based on your idea. You spend all your savings to make a product or service that is depicted even more fantastic in your imagination, and after that you launch it confidently to the market.
Then you wait and keep waiting for customers who never come. And finally you have to accept the harsh reality that you think it's a very good idea, not necessarily other people think it's good. Meanwhile, you've spent all your money building a business that not many people are interested in.
And it's the number one reason why businesses fail and it's all because you fell in love with your idea. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder", all looks beautiful in the eyes of the lover and love is also blind. You are not able to see all the defects of the object you love.
Love is also hypnotizing, so whether you realize it or not, you are denying the other person's views that are different from what you see in your idea. Your mind is busy looking for justifications that your idea is interesting.
You should position your idea as a hypothesis, an idea that needs to be tested for truth. Like all scientists, you too have to distance yourself from your idea, no matter how attractive it may seem to you.
Turn your idea into a simple prototype so that other people can see it, touch it and feel it firsthand. This allows other people to respond to your idea using their imagination which may be different from your intended idea.
Then show the prototype to many people, study their reactions. And remember, your goal isn't to convince them how great your idea is, it's to get feedback from them.
Then, refine your idea and make a prototype of the next version and show it again to your potential customers and then ask for feedback again and then refine it again and so on until you succeed in creating the best solution that has actually been validated by your customer.
**Successful business starts with an idea**, this expression is true but incomplete and so it can make us fail. And I think it is necessary to add one more word, namely, a successful business starts from a **validated** idea.
**So, good luck with your business, good luck and thanks for reading.**

I miss the old noisecash
Saturday
Date 4 june 2022
The first time I got to know noisecash about 8 months ago, I was introduced to the noisecash platform by a friend of mine. At first I didn't trust my friend when he introduced the noisecash platform that can pay you with BCH coins and can be exchanged or disbursed to our bank account number.
For users of the readcash platform, who doesn't know noisecash?.
It seems that most readcash users know about noisecash, right? yes, it is one of the best platform for generating BCH coins in my opinion.
Why do I say the best platform for earning BCH?
Readcash and noisecash can be called like twin platforms, the difference is that in readcash we have to write interesting articles and of course with long posts. I know that some people who just want to earn BCH coins easily would prefer noisecash, because there you just write like a short story about whatever you want, as long as you obey the rules in noisecash.
After creating a noisecash account we only need to set up your noisecash wallet, and then your job is only to interact and post your daily life or whatever it's free. I was a new user of noisecash at that time, I continued to interact with other users and the results I got were also quite large.
My lastday can reach $6-10 and lastweek I can reach $50-$80. At first I didn't believe it, even though I had only joined for more than 1 month, and I was able to generate that much income.
And I'm sure at that time my friends, who had a lot of subscribers and often interacted, could definitely get more than this.
Controversial freetip system
A few months ago the crypto market dumped, and for some reason noisecash immediately implemented a free tip system. Many users are protesting why they don't get a freetip button.
Before there was a freetip system, we only needed to post and wait for our friends to tip and we could also interact to get BCH coins.
But unfortunately since the freetip system was implemented, this method doesn't work anymore and only those who have the freetip button can still get bigger income than accounts that don't get the freetip button.
**Random free tip system**
Many of my friends gave me advice on how to get a freetip system. There are those who give me suggestions to keep posting at least 3 times a day posting, there are also those who give suggestions to continue to interact in Explore so that our traffic activities are detected by the system. I've tried and it didn't work and I finally gave up.
**Then why did I say random?**
A few weeks ago my friend joined noisecash, and after 2 weeks of joining he immediately got a freetip button. I don't know how this could possibly happen, and there's also my old account that I haven't used for a long time or been inactive but that account actually got a freetip button.
I believe all of this is also influenced by the recent decline in crypto prices.
**Then whether to survive with conditions like this**
Anyway I'm still holding on to noisecash even though I don't have a freetip button. Basically, I really like interacting with other people and I also have quite a lot of friends from various countries and there are even many friends from within or outside the country who are already familiar with me.
So I will continue to stay in noisecash because I believe that when the crypto market conditions improve, noisecash will also return to what it used to be. It's only a matter of time for admins to provide updates on the noisecash platform.
**Disclaimer**
*I don't mean to be sarcastic but this is just an expression of my feelings since the first time I joined noisecash until now. And I do miss the old noisecash, because many of my friends are not active in noisecash because they don't get the freetip button.*
Then how about you friends at readcash who also have joined in noisecash? Do you miss the old NoiseCash? I want to know that.
**Thanks for reading.**
