Embracing Setbacks and Moving Forward

Image
Lately, I’ve been feeling a bit off, not quite myself, especially when it comes to work. My partner and I recently lost our jobs, and though I’m still employed, one of my major projects was lost. It's been a tough time. Just today, I discovered that I made a mistake on a post-production project I’ve been working on for a while. There was an issue with the video format that I thought was part of the process, but I had forgotten the correct way to do it. What made it worse was that the outputs were all approved, so I assumed everything was fine. This mistake goes all the way back to June. It wasn’t the reviewer’s fault either - I should’ve double-checked my previous work for reference. I’m disappointed in myself for missing this and adding unnecessary pressure to an already packed schedule. On top of that, I offered to correct everything from June to September at no extra cost because, frankly, I wouldn’t feel right charging for work that should’ve been done correctly the first time....

Embracing the Rollercoaster of Love: The Myth of Perpetual Happiness in Relationships

Image
In the realm of modern relationships, there exists a prevailing myth that suggests couples should be in a perpetual state of bliss. However, the reality is far from this idealistic notion. It's perfectly okay not to be constantly happy in a relationship. Just like life itself, relationships are intricate and multifaceted journeys that encompass a spectrum of emotions, both positive and challenging. One of the common downsides of relationships is the misconception that perpetual happiness is the only marker of a successful partnership. This unrealistic expectation can lead to feelings of inadequacy and disappointment when the inevitable challenges arise. Every relationship faces its share of disagreements, misunderstandings, and rough patches. Accepting that not every moment will be filled with joy is crucial for fostering a healthier and more resilient connection with your partner. Rather than viewing moments of discontent as signs of failure, it's essential to recognize them a...

The Power of Manual Leads Qualification: Quality Over Quantity

Image
In today's fast-paced business environment, it's easy to get caught up in the rush for leads. However, let's take a moment to consider the age-old debate: Manual Leads Qualification vs. Bulk Sourcing. 🎯 Bulk sourcing may promise a high volume of leads, but it's crucial to remember that quantity doesn't always equate to quality. Manual lead qualification, on the other hand, ensures that each lead is carefully vetted and aligned with your ideal customer profile. This approach may seem more time-consuming initially, but the long-term benefits are truly game-changing. First and foremost, manual qualification hones in on precision. By meticulously evaluating each lead, we uncover nuanced details that might be overlooked in a bulk-sourcing approach. This means we're not just reaching out to more potential clients, but rather, the right potential clients—those whose needs and pain points align seamlessly with our offerings. This results in higher conversion rates and ...

Human and AI

Image
AI and humans are two separate entities with their own strengths and limitations. While AI can simulate human intelligence and quickly process large amounts of data, humans possess biological intelligence that enables them to reason, feel emotions, and engage in complex social interactions. Despite its advantages, AI still has limitations such as a lack of creativity, empathy, and common sense, and can sometimes produce biased or inaccurate results. As the relationship between AI and humans continues to evolve, it's important to ensure that AI is designed and used responsibly, with the aim of promoting human well-being and advancing societal goals. #AI   #aritificialintelligence   #human   #modern   #life   #technology

Other People's Opinions Vs. My Feelings

Image
Once in a personal coaching session I was asked the following questions:  Why are other people's opinions important to me? If other people did not agree with me how would I feel? If I were to do what I want to do and not care about other people's opinions, how would I feel? To start, I'd like to share that not only is my employer an awesome leader, she is also a fantastic personal coach. She cares a lot about her team as if they're real family. I am so grateful for being one of the lucky team members who's blessed with the opportunity to work with her.  A couple of weeks before our scheduled coaching session, I experienced emotional distress.  I would often cry without any clear reason why.  I would work, but my mind would just float in imaginary realm.  I would sleep, but each time I woke, I felt as if I hadn't slept at all.  It was very tiring. I was exhausted.  I felt the need to isolate myself from everyone else around besides my immediate family m...

Unpredictable

Image
  Recently, at the company I work for, we were informed of a sad news - it's about the CEO's passing.   Before he died, he had a dream of building a database of contacts significant to the industry we're focused on. This dream came to life, when for the first time, on a Friday in the month of July 2022, he had a glimpse of it and was able to test it. The sad part is that on the following Sunday, he passed away.   Life is just so unpredictable. That's why I always make sure to cherish everything and everyone that I have in this world while I still have the chance.   In this piece, I'm sharing with you all, the message I left in our communications platform after the meeting we had on that day we heard of the news.   __   I wanted to share my thoughts, but I couldn't do it while on the call because I'm the type of person who gets very emotional really quickly.   Mine is that, one of the factors that make people stay at a company is good management - you a...

"Life itself is the most wonderful fairy tale." - Hana Christian Andersen Life is full of surprises indeed. We don't know what's going to happen when. No idea what's going to take place next. Not certain about when exactly the rain falls and when it stops. Not guaranteed to really get old and collect decades of memories.  As much as we'd love to, we just can't predict everything.  Despite all these thoughts, we know there are things we can do for sure though:  cherish every moment we have… value every breath we take… love everyone around us… take care of ourselves… share our wonderful moments with fur babies… enjoy life, and many more!  As people say, we got to "live, laugh, and love My name is Lhei. I created this blog so that I have a channel where I can put my thoughts into words through writing.  I'd love to share the precious moments I've had with the "loves" of my life. I want to just write everything I'd like to share when...
