Words and Wisdom

Everyone talks about renewable energy, climate change, global warming, carbon capture technology, but the easiest solution is (as per the Waste and Energy Hierarchy) to reduce usage of energy/resources and stop creating wastes, or 'wasting waste'. Turning off your electrical appliances, refrain from printing unnecessarily, and sort out your waste counts. Simple steps help.

As long as I have a book in hand, I don't feel like I am wasting time. (Charlie Munger)

低调做人，高调做事。

It's always better to fail doing the right things, than succeed doing the wrong things - Lord Bilimoria.

Discipline is the ability to forego temporary pleasures for future rewards

世事无绝对。己所不欲，勿施于人。得饶人处且饶人·。

A ship at the port is always safe. But that's not the purpose the ship was build.

路遥知马力，旅行见人心。

You control your own behaviour and emotion. Nobody can make you angry. You make yourself angry. (Neuro-linguistic Programming).

The ones who matter don't mind, the ones who mind don't matter.

父母在，不远游，游必有方。百善孝为先。

There are many things that change over the years, but there is one thing that has and should never change. It's all about the next game (project or task), and not looking way down the line. (Steve Nicol)

The time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining. (JF Kennedy)

Under-promise, over-deliver. (Let others think that we are a noob, and impress them with our capabilities)
