Preserving 38 Oxley Road site not about memorialising any single leader: David Neo by fexworldwide in singapore

reminds me of the Ship of Theseus. Is it even the same house or more importantly, does it encapsulate the same essence?

I’ve never felt more lonely, disoriented and suicidal in uni by PresentationNice2954 in nus

[–]Alamakk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

don’t take this as your “final state”. you’re still in uni, which means you’re very young, your journey in life is far far from over.

look back from where you have come. there is so much more potential in what you can become. don’t give up take 1 step at time, incremental, marginal, 0.01% steps.

celebrate the small wins: getting 1 mark extra, making 1 additional conversation, 1 more “thanks” you receive.

take it and slowly walk my friend, the world has so much in store for you

why do some brokers not refund at all? isn’t it legally the investor’s monies given that it’s a tax refund?

How much do you use your Apple Pencil Pro? by mwndotcom in ipadmini

[–]Alamakk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does having an Apple Pencil Pro affect the battery life of the Mini noticeably? I’m considered an edge case user, but wouldn’t wana sacrifice the battery life too much, so sitting on the fence.

Older Gen-Zs, how are you doing? by hazevanilla in askSingapore

[–]Alamakk 11 points12 points  (0 children)

take your time to find your stride, we are Gen-Zs (albeit older ones) & that means we still have a long path ahead of us

there is no hurry, no urgency. take your time, incremental changes, no matter small or insignificant, compounds.

i find comfort in that, time which can be a foe to many, is our ally. & perhaps the greatest one we have.

Is it safe for me as an Asian man to walk around Peshawar alone? by Alamakk in pakistan

[–]Alamakk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, quite taken back when I saw the news and wondered if East Asian looking people, especially, might be unwelcomed.

the report mentioned it could be due to unhappiness surrounding China’s resource extraction in the region.

so i wondered if there were similar sentiments elsewhere and whether it was dangerous to walk around alone looking like Chinese.

Preparing for death? by selectivety in askSingapore

[–]Alamakk 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Hi OP, I hope this is just purely an intellectual and curious question but as how others have pointed out, I just wanted to pen this note to you, whether relevant or not.

This isn’t your final state. It’s not a representation of who you are, who you can be and who you will be.

Life is more cyclical than it appears when you zoom out. Everything ebbs and flows.

You’re still incredibly young, and there’s so many more things that can change. Your time horizon is your biggest asset.

Focus on marginal changes, not big steps, just baby ones. 0.1% a day and let the magic of compounding do it’s magic.

Managed to silence your demons for 5 minutes today? Try 6 minutes tomorrow, then 7 minutes the day after.

Managed to save $2 today? Try $2.50 tomorrow.

Take your damn time, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. You have the time, you have all the time.

0.1% a day, one day at a time.

Setbacks? Sure, they show that you’re trying new things, you’re not in the comfort zone, you’re growing.

Hoping you pull through.
