Tractors and machines amplified the crop volume. Internet enabled information revolution. Farmers in Brazil can connect with farmers in Vietnam, it is easier to find cure to plant diseases. Crops can be harvested in warm countries during winter and shipped over. Quality
- [Mock. Skeptical. Run.](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/mock-skeptical-run/): Electricity made tractors available in masses. But tractor didn't replace farmers in the first discovery, it took iteration. The first tractor was powered by steam. It was delicate and expensive and required trained operators. This was a prototype. Prototype isn't built for volume. So it didn't look like a threat. The sight of mid field
- [Catalog spec table aggregator](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/catalog-spec-table-aggregator/): ISC West is a month away. Which reminds me one of the most painful assets to make: catalogs. More specifically, the spec table. Somehow typos are endless. This is my 2026 prompt to aggregate all specs and find discrepancies. It's an extension of the datasheet rebrand project. **Product Specification Aggregator Prompt** ``` You are a
- [Pattern learning and steal like an artist](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/pattern-learning-and-steal-like-an-artist/): This is a technique I frequently use to iterate faster to pattern learning: steal. Take a look at these two examples. Pattern recognition The first image is from a 2023 ASUS product announcement, I screenshot and kept it in the swipe file. Months later, it became a source to mimic in a product launch. Pattern
- [Secondhand iPhone](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/secondhand-iphone/): Measure value by result, not money invested. Buying a new iPhone feels amazing. This thing will make my life better in multiple ways, I better match the color with a nice case. Don't forget screen protector, I don't want to dent the screen. There's also that dust plug for the charger cutout. BTW, holiday is
- [Claude Chrome: risk of waiting](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/claude-chrome-risk-of-waiting/): Claude Chrome automates webpage navigation, but also has a longer wait time than regular chat. Scenario 1: open product datasheet and website CMS side by side, ask Claude Chrome to fill in the product specs. Wait. Scenario 2: open product selector and CMS, ask Claude Chrome to check the wrong attribute. Wait. It is easy
- [CEOs use AI to create products](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/ceos-use-ai-to-create-products/): I recently stumbled across this, and this. Mr.Dang made a family tree software for Vietnamese. Mr.Sting made a social platform for cats. Family tree and cats are unlikely their domain. Business is. They saw problems worth solving and used AI to build and ship. Imagination determines the scale of impact, not the tool. We had
- [Call it exaggeration, call it creativity](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/call-it-exaggeration-call-it-creativity/): I started with ChatGPT, but I switched for precise control and less exaggeration. In most of my work,precision is quality. Until I tried to add a lens glare to this upscaled image. ChatGPT nailed it in one prompt. If I think exaggeration as a bug, I disapprove and avoid the tool. Position it as creativity,
- [AI Anxious](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/ai-anxious/): I'm only on LinkedIn. One platform. And I'm already anxious. Every scroll brings a new technique, a new model, a new thing I haven't tried yet. The feeling isn't excitement. But here's what I keep coming back to: the anxiety is pointing at the wrong thing. The question isn't what's new. It's what does it
- [Less is more](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/less-is-more/): We can delete context. And it's a good thing. We were feeding formats, insights, regulations, guidelines, rules — all into markdowns for deliverables. Assumption: more context, better output. It didn't work. Failed for 4 times. Many of us take what AI gives us for granted. Or we don't drill deep enough to the absolute-must context.
- [Good prompt vs. good context](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/good-prompt-vs-good-context/): Some people prompt in Mandarin. Some in English. Standardizing the skill or language of prompting across a team takes time. It's inefficient. So we standardized the context instead. Our PMM team built context as Markdown files — sales deck outlines, value proposition frameworks, positioning methodologies. Paired with product specs and briefing materials for multi-step output.
- [Learn to iterate. Not to learn.](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/learn-to-iterate-not-to-learn/): YouTube, LinkedIn — feed is full of techniques. Short videos. Popular keywords. New tools. But what attracts us and what we actually need are rarely the same thing. Iteration is hard because it requires pattern utilization. Then noticing what can be done to accelerate or amplify — that gap, a potential new pattern, is where
- [Action button](https://kellyat32.com/2026/03/action-button/): iPhone 11 to iPhone 15 in an iPhone 17 era. That's how late I am to the action button. Small trick that I did: create a task by voice. I use TickTick with its built-in voice-to-text. David Allen's "Get Things Done" has one fundamental idea: capture everything. Sudden thoughts are extremely valuable. Quality doesn't matter
- [Benefit of saving allowance as an adult](https://kellyat32.com/2023/01/benefit-of-saving-allowance-as-an-adult/): Over the past 2 years, it's becoming a family habit to use these old red envelopes to save up money for things we're indecisive. Through the process, I realize there are some benefits. Time, at least a month, to think and discuss if this item will bring quality time for us. These discussions circling around
- [Why do I see money the way I do?](https://kellyat32.com/2023/10/why-do-i-see-money-the-way-i-do/): After reading the first chapter of Psychology of Money, I flash backed on the event of my life that shaped the way I see money today. Questions and attempted answers I had with myself. Why do I keep track of my expense and income?I started to receive allowance since the second grade, but my mom
- [Expense, September 2023: iPad again and TV](https://kellyat32.com/2023/10/top-expense-september-2023/): Top nonrecurring expenses in September JVC 43K 43-inch TV, purchased for NTD$7778 on credit in August, accounted for 12% of total expense. iPad peripherals including a screen glass replacement, a secondhand Smart Keyboard, and a secondhand Apple Pencil; total 6500. Accounted for 10% of the expense. Linda’s emergency clothing from coffee spill, purchased for NTD$3,480
- [Fun Money 2024](https://kellyat32.com/2024/03/fun-money-2024/): The goal of savings in 2024 income is NT$500,000, the actual savings is NT$553,741; saving rate is 42.7% of my personal income. That leaves excess of NT$53,741 for this year’s fun money. 1. For someone important: I bought an iPhone 14 (NT$22,300) for my wife since her phone’s breaking down 2. For myself: I spent
- [Money update: chunks of one time expenses](https://kellyat32.com/2024/12/money-update-chunks-of-one-time-expenses/): November is a month with multiple large one time bills; we've almost doubled the monthly expense from NT$82,558 of October to 165,212 of November. There are 3 expenses that contributed to the inflated number. MacBook Air M3 13-inch (NT$35,600): the old Macbook Pro 2015 wasn't able to keep up anymore, it was the right purchase
- [Parental allowance cashflow](https://kellyat32.com/2025/10/parental-allowance-cashflow/): It used to be 5% of income that all goes into a cash envelope. We pull money from it if there's any large purchases for the parents or flush into red envelop during Lunar New Year. The experiment Luckily, our parents are in good financial shape and that gave us room to plan for the
- [Fun money (update)](https://kellyat32.com/2025/10/fun-money-update/): I decided to change the way to allocate fun money, from once a year to once a month. Original: split the difference after hitting the annual savings goal. New: allocate 5% of each regular income cycle and 50% - 60% of irregular income cycle. Problem of fun money with "leftover" from annual savings: Unable to
- [Saving up for](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/saving-up-for/): 10th grade, I saved up THB 3,000 for my first Nike basketball shoes. At 30, I start to see people save up 20% for their home down payment. Once we start to make a paycheck or receive our credit card, that stopped. Everything seemed so easy now. The wait is gone. So was happiness. It
- [Think at 100x scale](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/think-at-100x-scale/): The more I talk with AI, the more it felt human. Except it isn't. I'm limiting artificial intelligence with human intelligence. I can 2x the slide output, 5x if I worked hard, and 10x if I streamlined the workflow. But 100x is not reasonable. This isn't true for AI. Next time prompting, try to add
- [Screen time passcode I don't know](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/the-screen-time-password-i-dont-know/): When it comes to limiting my phone use, I tried them all. Turn screen into greyscale to reduce stimulation. Shuffling app folder to break the swipe habit. Block URL. Setup a screen time passcode to remind myself. But I always find ways to revoke it. The frustration came from a 2 hour Saturday night doom
- [Stress test the system](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/stress-test-the-system/): A system without stress test is an ideation. Importance of emergency fund is unreliable until tuition bill came. Product launch process is unreliable until sequential production delays. Ship it. Ship it to intentionally create stress. Then iterate to remove one stress at a time.
- [Motion drives emotion](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/motion-drives-emotion/): The word 'emotion' includes the word 'motion', it's 6 out of the 7 characters. I think this implies 80% action and 20% feeling. Unfortunately, we often flip the ratio when things get hard. If I treat myself as a business, a restaurant. Does a bad review make me feel bad? Yes. And nervous, angry, defensive,
- [Writing in a to-do app](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/writing-in-a-to-do-app/): I'm a great procrastinator. I paid for Bluehost, I switched to Hostinger. I changed a dozen or so themes. But I avoided the thing that should be done: to write. 2021: 3 posts 2022: 3 2023: 5 2024: 30 2025: 25 I began to write on TickTick and reached 22 straight days. I found writing
- [Gamification and doing hard things](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/gamification-and-doing-hard-things/): Millie's turning 5, school began to teach numbers and alphabets. I found this as an opportunity to learn to do hard things. Every time she writes from 1 to 50, a box is slashed, she accumulates 4 minutes of iPad or Switch time to redeem. It works for adults too. What's that one anticipation we
- [Not finish a book](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/not-finish-a-book/): Two books I did not finish recently and the reason. The Only Investment Guide You'll Ever Need by Andrew Tobias A fundamental book. If it dates back to 2017, I think this would be a nice read. For now, it feels like a reminder; there's nothing wrong with that, but I haven't found big insight
- [Start from the least scary one](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/start-from-the-least-scary-one/): From loc 93 of War of Art highlight: Remember our rule of thumb: The more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it. That being the direction, the execution reminds me of Dave Ramsey's debt snowball method. Start with the least effort or
- [Bias reaction muscle and scheduled post](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/bias-reaction-muscle-and-scheduled-post/): This is a 3 minute clip of Chris Koerner on The Diary Of A CEO sharing to act on the curiosity in the least amount of time possible. I enjoyed his way to phrase "strengthen the bias reaction muscle". It reminds me of the fear, sweaty palm, hearing my own heartbeat when posting my first
- [Over-research](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/over-research/): The story: I bought an Insta360 Ace Pro 2 and I fell for the marketing. It's laughable because I work in the video industry as product marketing. It was a decision between DJI Action 5 Pro and Insta360 Ace Pro 2. The facts I over researched and end up persuaded myself: It has a better
- [Sunk cost of over-research](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/sunk-cost-of-over-research/): The more research time I invest, the harder it became to let go of the idea. Letting go would erase the time and effort I have spent. Therefore, I would argue with LLM. I would add more factors, product comparison, criteria to LLM. I would ignore it's result. Gear often matter very little in the
- [Overdoing and anxiety](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/overdoing-and-anxiety/): Every time I press the Post button on LinkedIn, my stomach cramps. This is stupid. I'm a joke It's embarrassing It takes days for the stress to fade. Maybe I have not trained enough bias muscle resistance. At any kind of work, from business to exercise, there are good days and bad days. Then there
- [Parallel pattern](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/parallel-pattern/): Windows Photo AI Erase. Apple Photo Clean up. Gemini image with watermark. Three tools I often use - separately, on parallel. The combination is so simple, so obvious, but easily neglected. We chase new techniques and tactics. But new creates friction. The alternative - find what we already possess, combine, utilize, then create a unique
- [Cost of best performance](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/cost-of-best-performance/): I ran a PR: 5'00'' in the last K of the 11K race. Just to be reminded the weakness in left hip is breaking the left knee. Overperformance is a cost for iteration. Achieving a better KPI with 80-hour week, lifting bigger weight with belt, saving more by zero entertainment. We add brute force to
- [Start with I don't know](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/start-with-i-dont-know/): Empty prompt space is resistance. It is unknown. It is potential mistake. It is over thinking. It is doubt. Resistance defogs with our momentum. When I wrote one sentence. When I act for 2 minutes. One tactic is to admit the don't know. Go to Claude, "I'm working on _, show me an empty prompt
- [Priority is sorting](https://kellyat32.com/2026/02/priority-is-sorting/): "Priorities" is a new word. Before the 1940s, it was priority. It's about one thing. The first thing on the list. When multiple first-things happen, things fight for our attention. The inability to decide the first action creates anxiety. Anxiety is the unfocused fear. Priority is a number. It is sorting the first action to
- [Reverse engineer - presentation outline](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/reverse-engineer-presentation-outline/): Both Steal Like An Artist by Austin Kloen and Jeff Su's YouTube talked swipe file. Swipe file allows me to apply creativity from those who have already done it, to my context. Great outline takes time. Like most people, I don't work in the cutting edge technology or the top tech companies. I don't always
- [Reverse engineering - key visual](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/reverse-engineering-key-visual/): I previously wrote about reverse engineering visual backgrounds for my slide use. Similar technique applies to key visual too. The example in this case: The problem: Finding stock image of a corporate lady. Level: easy, find in shutterstock. Overlay geometric lines. Level: difficult, need to design the shape of lines, number of nodes, area of
- [Reverse engineer - block style background](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/reverse-engineer-block-style-background/): Block-style background is popular way to visual listing. It is also time consuming. And either designers are occupied or not every slide requires designer to step in. First, the result. The problems: Gradient colors, saturation, gradient direction, etc. Block size, uniform edge curve, space between blocks, etc. Here's how. Step 1> Strip off the elements
- [How I Created 20 Pages of PowerPoint Notes in Under 60 Minutes](https://kellyat32.com/2026/01/how-i-created-20-pages-of-powerpoint-notes-in-under-60-minutes/): In conclusion: Create an empty online meeting. Start meeting, start transcription. Present. Before advance to the next slide, say "next page". End the meeting and download the transcript. Check the spelling of terminologies. Use the prompt to clean up the transcript. Check copy, paste to the slide notes. The prompt for step 4. You are
- [Image inversion with Gemini 3 Nano Banana Pro](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/image-inversion-with-gemini-3-nano-banana-pro/): Here's a thought I had: If Gemini 3 Nano Banana Pro is the best at generating images, can I use it to reverse engineer images? Then use that to create a different style of image? I was working on a face recognition terminal and this key visual from Hikvision caught my eye. There's no way
- [Software and hardware companies](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/software-and-hardware-companies/): This is a biased point of view. It is biased because most of the companies I worked for are hardware oriented or started with hardware. They are also large corporations. An observation that I derived with a friend was it's more likely for software company to succeed in hardware versus hardware company in software. Great
- [Two folder layering of SharePoint document sets](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/two-folder-layering-of-sharepoint-document-sets/): SharePoint document set has a limitation: two document sets can't layer naturally and metadata is encouraged. This enforced a hard coded rule: top layer folder -> one layer document sets plus metadata columns -> files. From a product dev point, this is a tough feature limitation to make, considering the audience of Office and Windows
- [Annual theme](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/annual-theme/): Over the years, I transitioned from New Year resolutions to birthday personal reviews. (links to turning 32, 34, and 35) This Ali-abdaal short reveals the fragmented feeling I had this year's review, that is something to needle the topics together. The idea of a theme. That said, my theme for 34 is brave because: It
- [Meet people to meet ideas](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/meet-people-to-meet-ideas/): Almost fifty days into writing, one thing became apparent: the lack of things to write about. There are things I'm already doing to find ideas: Listening to podcast Reading books The reality of having a family and in my 30s: the social connection and new experience became stagnant. I circle around the same agenda of
- [5 fear and purpose crossovers](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/5-fear-and-purpose-crossovers/): Throughout this 4 year experiment of trying to write and document, there are 2 elements that determined the action (or no action): purpose and fear. When the intensity of purpose is higher than fear, I can take action. When the reverse happens, I stay in my comfort zone. I have experienced 5 phases. Phase 1.
- [My cookie jar](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/my-cookie-jar/): I have forgotten where I got this idea. But decade before I read about David Goggins cookie jar method, I have been collecting feedbacks. They live in the Accomplishments and Insults folder. Feel defeated? Scroll the Accomplishments folder. Not feeling to exercise? Scroll the Insults folder. It's a good reminder on what I'm capable of
- [Crossover point of fear and purpose](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/crossover-point-of-fear-and-purpose/): Leaving my previous job was, both, the most scary and blessing career decision I made. I was comparatively young when I was promoted, I was youngest in many manager meetings. There was definitely a lot of work put in, but it became a restriction I gave myself. It was difficult for me to share, to
- [初心 by 江振誠](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/初心-by-江振誠/): 81 一旦自滿，就不會進步 109 這是一件我所認同的事情，那就勇往直前放手去做吧 122 存錢對我來說並不重要，重要的是在法國這段時間，我要如何投資自己的料理廚藝 125 我跑片法國各地，去最好的餐廳，點最好的料理，詳細記錄心得及過程中延伸的靈感 135 我催眠自己去了解法式美味的意義，完全不以固有的成見、個人的角度批評任何一種料理，發自內心地全然接收 137 成功的背後只有堅持，沒有僥倖 149 主廚所調製的醬汁對我而言可能太鹹了，但我壓制住自己感官 太鹹 的反應，反而不斷自我催眠，記住了，這才是對的味道 153 在法國，餐廳經營的所有事物都以主廚和料理為中心，主廚是一家店的靈魂，主廚的特質會影響一家店的風味與風格，也決定了餐廳的成功與否 173 我知道我的離開，並不是因為我在感官花園已經學夠了，正是因為不夠，所以我要試探其他的可能 179 這裡資源匱乏，幾乎什麼都沒有，但正因如此，我才能好好地重新思考料理之於我的意義 190 要改餐廳的名字很容易，最大的挑戰是 管理。......我執意大刀闊斧進行改革。什麼是對的，什麼是錯的，什麼東西保留，什麼東西要改，我心中有一把尺，有一張清晰的藍圖，旁人很難插手。 200 當你一個人作夢時，那就只會是一個夢；但是當大家一起做夢，夢想就會成真 220 技巧如同房屋的地基一樣重要...但是如果過度強調技巧，就容易流於匠氣......廚藝的真正價值不在於食材的價值，而是要做出料理的深度...提升到視馬鈴薯特性予以不同烹調方式的 藝 224 技巧學會後，如何發揮，如何創立自我的風格，才是成敗的關鍵 227 現在我手邊有蘆筍，心底很自然地會根據食材特性與當下環境，並發出最直接的靈感。這個最原始的靈感，就是Honesty 238 當客人吃下的第一口，剛好是一盤料理中最精華的部分時，那麼這道菜色的擺置方式就是成功的。為什麼呢?客人用餐，永遠最記得第一口吃下去的感覺，這關對整頓飯、餐廳廚師的印象 255 料理所要表現的是生活的態度，而非華而不實的裝飾。因此，只要跟著心底的感覺走，就是回到最初的Honesty 260 彈性，就是精準且圓融，對周遭事情要能伸能縮 263 我認為最極致的服務並不是提供一個機械式的標準流程，而是客製化，以及我一直強調的細節...我希望我的合作夥伴都能夠有自己的想法，各自能夠獨立思考與執行，這是我挑選合作人才的最重要的角度與標準 267 當我覺得已經可以把一到菜做到完美的時候，也就是我放手的時候。唯有一再挑戰，不斷前進，才不會被固定在一個框架裡 268 初心成就了一種溫柔地提醒，使我能享受的不只是那份成果，而是享受自己全心投入其中的過程
- [The perfect content](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/the-perfect-content/): AI makes content faster and better; better logic, better story, long form, short form, and under substantially less time. It even knows what I'm trying to say before I can verbalize it clearly. Is there still value to still do things manually? Experience might be the value of being human. During the process, the how's
- [A minute with Gemini 3](https://kellyat32.com/2025/12/a-minute-with-gemini-3/): This image surprised me because I only have a vague visual idea when I described the statement, but it gave me an output with more depth of insight and clarity. It knew what I was trying to say before I said it clearly. The image would have took multiple people and hours to complete, but
- [好懂秒懂的財務思維課 by 郝旭烈](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/好懂秒懂的財務思維課-by-郝旭烈/): 106 擁有錢，才活得下，管理現金流量表。 確保錢，才活得久，管理損益表。 累積前，才活得好，管理資產負債表。 127 損益表：簡單來說就是看到底有沒有賺錢 資產負債表：就是看賺錢的效率跟效能高不高 金流量表：它等於揭示整個賺錢最後的結果 310 中國人講「量入為出」、「開源節流」，都把開源跟量入放在前面，開源跟量入講的就是「收入」，所以怎麼樣關注你的收入，事實上才是最重要的一塊。 這三者當中的領頭羊不是費用，不是成本，而是「收入、收入、收入」 321 收入預算不確定，你就沒有編，但是費用預算你確定了，所以編得鉅細彌遺...淨利怎麼估算？ 404 如果沒有辦法持續的話，那基本上就不是好收入 439 收入＝商品Ｘ通路Ｘ流量Ｘ轉換率Ｘ客單價Ｘ復購率 688 砍成本和費用，要砍脂肪，不要砍到肌肉 792 「先生產再銷售」，最怕的就是「埋頭苦幹」，也就是一但一頭栽進生產的環節裡面，就沒有花太多心思在銷售環境的變動上面 1171 公司是用扣除費用的所得淨額納稅，但是個人卻用所得總額來納稅 1262 「淨資產或淨值」對公司或者是個人而言，才是真正「財富管理」的終極目標 1870 要推薦最重要的財務分析KPI…總資產報酬率 1926 好的商品去做生意，最好是「高頻高需」 2205 只要手邊有足夠充分的現金，就有活下去的本錢，和足夠應對未來的資源
- [能不能，轉身就遠行 by Cher](https://kellyat32.com/2025/11/能不能，轉身就遠行-by-cher/): Start date: November 2, 2025 End date: November 5, 2025 30 開始明白夢想是什麼，就是找一種快樂又簡單的方式去生活...走在自己喜歡的路上 57 獨自旅行第一件事情，就是要學會跟自己做朋友 72 不要以為別人依賴著你，就非心不甘情不願付出不可，不要以為自己多厲害，非要改變別人的選擇不可，我們都是其他人路上的過客 76 我是一個人，卻也從未真正一個人，學著在陌生人群中歡笑，卻也明白那種笑容有種久違的陌生 94 流浪根本不需要學習，在路上自己就會為夢想找到出路 128 家也只是一個港口，不過是讓你可以停泊比較久的港口 130 在不同的港口間，找一個屬於自己的家 184 只要背起背包去認識陌生旅人，一樣可以從不同的旅人身上去了解世界 201 遇到不合適的旅伴就當是修行，好相處的旅伴就當作是天上掉下來的禮物
- [With the Old Breed by E.B. Sledge](https://kellyat32.com/2025/10/with-the-old-breed-by-e-b-sledge/): Yellow highlight | Page: 119 The Japanese’s mouth glowed with huge gold-crowned teeth, and his captor wanted them. He put the point of his kabar on the base of a tooth and hit the handle with the palm of his hand. Because the Japanese was kicking his feet and thrashing about, the knife point glanced
- [34/35](https://kellyat32.com/2025/10/34-35/): On 34 34 was a year of liberation. Millie turned 4 and now enjoys art and craft, I have more time on my own. I changed job after almost 7 year stay, it brought the opportunity to live in the US for 30 days. That was an unimaginable and incredible experience. Milestones Exercise time more
- [Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) 2024](https://kellyat32.com/2024/05/myers-briggs-type-indicator-mbti-2024/): For certain there’s debate on the reliability of MBTI, for which I cannot argue. However, I believe the overall trend could be an interesting indicator. My rest from 2016 was ENFx; in 2024 it’s ENFJ. The way I react to events and how I perceive myself probably stayed.
- [Mistake: Fault vs Responsibility](https://kellyat32.com/2022/10/mistake-fault-vs-responsibility/): Mistakes often makes us feel wronged and deeply hurt, but the next worse thing that could happen is trapping us in an inmoble, unactionable mental state. The idea of fault and responsibility mentioned in The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck could be an antidote (at least it did for me). Remove fault from
- [Why a blog](https://kellyat32.com/2021/11/why-a-blog/): originally written on November 25, 2021 Starting a blog has been one of the New Year Resolution since 2019. Since a kid, I've always been that student who's shy to raise his opinion in class. I think a lot of that has to do with self recognition and thinking everyone else knew the answer, but
- [31/32](https://kellyat32.com/2022/12/31-out/): Takeaways from 31 years old. On health Invest in a good chairGood chair doesn't mean it's comfortable. After a decade of horrible office posture, my body is relearning and it's not confy. The good thing is, it forces me take a walk every hour and my back is no longer in pain after work. Exercise
