Sometimes all I want is to have several keyboard shortcuts to make my life easier. Yes, I know I’m lazy, but imagine for a minute a life when you can apply keyboard shortcuts. Nevermind on how you press them (I think you should do it with your mind). Here’s several shortcuts (I use PC, not Mac, sorry) that I want :

1. Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V (Copy and Paste). Definitely one of my favorite, because no-fun repetition is something that you shouldn’t, well, repeat.
   Use when : do household chores, go to office, all my daily tasks.
2. Esc (Escape key) / Alt-F4 (Close). In life, you should have something really similar to escape key. It’s useful to avoid all awkward situation. Use this and it will paused temporarily or closed immediately.
   Use when : Rejected by the person of your dream, Do foolish things in public, wardrobe malfunction.
3. Alt-Tab (Change Windows). In life, you should be able to open several windows (Work window, leisure window, house window) and switch whenever you want using Alt-Tab.
   Use when : You feel bored with your current situation and want to change venue.
4. Ctrl-F (Find). I have a lot of things that I want to remember, but apparently my brain has its own capacity. So i want to access my memory using Ctrl-F.
   Use when : You forget where you put your key, the name of that person who remember our name.

Three signs that your life is photoshopped :

1. You really, really want to know what others think, write and say  about you. Sometimes you even put up an act to please your crowd.
2. You didn’t care about the cost as long as you look “Good” in the eyes of others.
3. You photoshopped other people’s life as well according to your perspective.

Maybe some of you have heard this book, and although i’m not 100% agree with this book, there’s still one insight that stuck in my head. The power of positive thinking.

Mother Theresa once said that she’s not anti war, but pro peace. This is important because if we keep our focus on the negative side, even to deny or prohibit it, the influence of that denial still affect us. Remember Roy Marten? He’s a spokeperson for anti-drug, and he got caught buying drugs. How ironic is that?

Is this why eventhough there’s a slogan that said SAY NO TO DRUGS, the drug users in Indonesia is increasing? The slogan can be changed to SAY YES TO LIFE or LIVING HEALTHY 100%. Maybe we ought to change the second sign to Year of Full Stomach and Good Nutrition.

And it worked on every aspect of our lives as well. Don’t deny the devil, accept it, and focus on the other side, the good side.
