40s Lifestyle – Protecting Your Eyes
Aging is a word I think about more often in my 40s. Well … technically, I am 39 and turning 40 in a few months! In today’s blog post, I want to share about how I am taking care of my eyesights in 40s, with nutritions, behavior change, and a simple pair of EyeZen glasses. I grew up in an Asian & eyeglasses-wearing family, and everyone has terrible nearsightedness. 7 years ago, I underwent Lasik and PRK vision correction, which was life-changing. And, as s I age, I also began to experience seeing more floaters in both of my eyes, and frequent dryness in eyes has become unavoidable. About 1…

Adjusting to 40s
I am turning 40 in a few months! And, just the sound of saying 40 blows my mind. Both of my parents are now in their 70’s, and my older siblings are also approaching their mid-40’s. I guess I should say all of us finally have grown up! Looking back at my 30’s, I love every moment of it. I’ve given it 110%, and truly have lived my 30’s for myself, not for others. I’ve experienced love, happiness, joy, heartbreaks, loss, grief, anger, anxiety … You name it. I’ve experienced them all! Since earlier this year, I began to observe that my wellbeing has begun to change – body, mind,…

How to Set and Commit to Meaningful Goals
Each year, 80% of New Year resolutions fail by the second week of February, and only 8% of people keep their New Year’s resolutions. Why is it so hard for us to commit to goals? I recently wrote an article for Entrepreneur Middle East on The How-To: Making Successfully Transitions to the Next Chapter in Life , sharing practical steps and tools that people can commit to their goals and make a change in life. I believe that with a structured approach, people can successfully make transitions at any stage in life. There are three crucial factors for successful transitions: a timeline with clear goals and actions; a support system of people and tools;…

Moving Forward toward Goals
The past 6 weeks went by so fast, and I felt these time have been so fruitful, yet intense. Since September, I had 4 speaking engagements, co-hosted 1 Facebook Live, conducted 1 workshop, attended the largest technology conference, and plus, all of projects I have at work. Phew, high-five to myself! Because we are human and we have the need to feel that we are moving forward in our lives, having bite-size milestones for each of our goals can help us see progress that are sometimes hard to spot. I often advice my coaching clients to set up tangible and measurable goals at the beginning of the year (or if you…
