June Favorites 2016

Can you believe it?! Today is the last day of June for this year. That means the first six months of the year is finished. Only six more months to go till the end of the year. All I can say that this year has been a challenging and interesting year for me. Life at work takes a little bit of getting used to due to budget cut every where. We are expected to do excellent job with limit or not fund at all. That can be tricky.

June Favorites 2016

• I am obsess moving more and eat less this month. It's fasting month for Muslim all over the world, so it's not hard to do. I love watching the number on the scale move down to my target goal.

• I am still doing  21 day fix extreme this month. I am doing Round 2 and Round 3. Love the results!

• This month I am obsess with 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey. I am rereading this book this year after fifteen years. I completely forgot about paradigm shift, Emotional Bank Account and the fact that we see the world not as it is but as what we know base on our own paradigm. And also the important of Principle Center paradigm in order to implement the Seven Habits

• I am lusting over Erin Condren new planner 2016/2017 but I still did not order them. I think I wait until October to order them if I still want it. I still have my 2015/2016 Life Planner to work with.

• Apps I am loving this month so much is Good Notes and Evernotes. I have been learning many ways to use Evernote. I really need to use this app more often for productivity
• I love doing #ramadandaily project this month. Taking daily photo for the whole month of Ramadan. 
• I love Ramadan. The whole thing about Ramadan excite me, I love how the weather feel, how people are and how we embrace recital of Quran. I wish everybody can experience this great month every year. 
• I am still obsess with iPad Pro 9.7"  and the Apple Pencil. I feel like I have been waiting for this in a long time. I finally can totally use my iPad for productivity and getting things done. It's a device that I use often more often than my computer.
• My favorite album this month on Apple Music are Yuna (Chapters) and Maher Zain (One). 

I hope you had an amazing June and amazing Ramadan.  No matter how hard life gets, try to stay positive and look for things to be grateful for.

15 things that I think about on my commute to work

I have been working for more than twenty years now. Wow that is a long time for someone to be in a work force. I have never thought that I would have work this long. I guess being in a government sector can really makes you immune to the work life routine. 

My commute to work takes about twenty minutes on a good old days but now the commute takes about forty to forty five minutes. So many people have migrating and living in my housing area that really contribute to heavy traffic in the morning. I usually drive to work by myself while listening to music or book on my audible. Usually during this time so many things can pop in my mind that I suddenly wish I can stop and write things down in my planner.

1. I can't believe that the government sector is no longer the safe place to be. So many changes that focus more on serving the one on top and not so much in helping 'the people'. I so so miss the era of our old prime minister which I think focus more on the comfortable life of the people.
2. Why are so many cars on the road today? Where did they come from?
3. Did I kiss my baby today?
4. I have to get my inbox to zero today
5. I can't wait for Friday
6. When is our currency will be at the normal rate? Urghh I really hate that!
7. GST? Hemmm what happened to the money?
8. I need to fill up my gas today
9. We need to have a team discussion today. So many new things come in and I can't seem to keep track on all of them
10. I am still debating weather to invest in Erin Condren planner for 2016-2017
11. I want to try bullet journal
12. What are we going to have for iftar?
13. 7 habits of highly effective people book should be a mandatory subject in school or at work. It's so relevant in today's world
14. I need to buy a new shoes
15. Should I quit my job and stay at home?

DO YOU HAVE THESE RANDOM THOUGHTS ON A COMMUTE TO WORK? WHAT THOUGHTS USUALLY COME TO MIND?

* in a way I am able to impact IT growth at my work place
* I still have my dad with me
* iPhone 6s plus to help me with productivity and creativity
* I can finally see the world from "the glass in half full" prespective. It does take a lot of practice and patient to be able to do that. The secret is to embrace Habit 1: Be Proactive
* 21 day fix extreme
* electricity, because without it I will be out of job.
* Apple Music which I listen to every single day. I love that I can find anything here including Quran recital.

So this is life // Project Life App Inspiration

The beauty about June is we have a few days in the month of Syaaban before Ramadan comes on the 6th June. I am a bit busy this month, with Ramadan here you are doing things that you don't do on any other month like Terawikh. It's the time to relax a bit, put first thing first, make a habit of remembering Allah and be good to other.

I only took a few photos this month and scrap every chance I get. I am still happy with what I accomplished so far this month.

HERE ARE MY SCRAPBOOK LAYOUTS FOR THIS MONTH SO FAR

How to add custom text to iPlanner

Hello lovelies and planner addicts out there. I have been using digital planner a.k.a iPlanner since last year on and off.

5. To see the new font that you have installed, go to MyFonts. Look for your font, in this case it's La Cithare font. Choose the font.


6. Begin typing the words that you want and click done.


7. You can resize the font to any size that you like. When you are done, press the bottom right icon and choose save image.


8. You image will be saved in your camera roll.


9. Open your iPlanner in Goodnotes and navigate to the page that you want to add the text. Then on the top left conner hit the circle with the plus sign in the middle icon to add image. Go to photo and choose your to do list image you just created.


10.  Press and hold on the image and you will see the Crop option. Hit Crop to make it like a sticker. Press the Done button when you are done. 

11. Resize the image to your liking. Now you can begin writing your to do lists for the day.

WWDC 2016: My reactions!!

As a developer, as a technology enthusiast I am super excited with WWDC 2016. I wish I can be there and experience the event live.

What I am excited about?!!

• iOS 10 of course. I think this is the major changes of iOs. The main actor is definitely iMessage. I love iMessage. I wish I could send iMessage to anybody including android users. I am not sure if you can do that with this new upgrade. People in my circle are using Whatsapp which I don't really like. I had to use it for work purposes. I love all about the new iMessage - the scribble - invisible ink - emoticon got bigger - full screen animation -emotion bubble thingy any many more
• Finally they redesign notification. I finally can see my wallpaper now with notification. Oooo I love the new wallpaper, so pretty.
• I am not that excite about the map because I like Waze better. You can never get lost with Waze. I had such a bad experience using Apple Map. I am not sure I trust this app yet
• Next one that I am excited about Apple Music. Am I the only one that love Apple Music? This is the most easiest music streaming and the prettiest. I found basically all the music that I am looking for including the Quran. I can't wait for the new one.
• Apple Pay, I am excited about that but too bad Malaysia still has not adopt that technology. I think it's about time we push for Apple Pay here. No more cash.
• Watch OS 3 is the one that I have been waiting for. I cannot wait. Apple load faster, there's a scribble mode that I can finally use, fitnesss app got social - and they add some new faces 
• And finally macOS Sierra ! I am excited that now I can unlock my mac with my apple watch. I wish we could do that with all my application at work. Life will be so much simpler and faster. Picture in picture is finally on macOs, I can finally watch Youtube while doing other stuffs. And Siri is finally available on macOS, I love Siri but sometimes I forgot she was there to server me. I might want to make it a habit to talk to my devices. It feels like living in Star Trek mode. heheheh...

In conclusion, I will definitely upgrade all of my devices when the new softwares are available to the public sometime in Fall. Hemmm I am not really sure when is Fall? Is it August? September? October? 

Anyway what do you think about the new updates? Do you excited about it? Or you just don't care? Leave a comment below and let me know what you think?

I have been doing 21 day fix extreme program since May as my daily workout routine. This month I will be continuing with this program for Round 2 and probably Round 3.
