77 Powerful Lessons from Exceptional: Build Your Personal Highlight Reel and Unlock Your Potential

Introduction:

What if the key to unlocking your greatest potential wasn’t about fixing your weaknesses—but about amplifying your brightest moments? In Exceptional, productivity expert Daniel M. Cable presents a revolutionary approach to personal growth: Your "highlight reel"—those peak experiences where you felt unstoppable—holds the blueprint for your success. Backed by neuroscience and real-world case studies, Cable shows how replaying and expanding these moments can rewire your brain for confidence, creativity, and sustained excellence.

Here are 7 game-changing lessons from the book:

1. Your Brain is Wired for Highlights (Not Weaknesses)
Traditional self-improvement focuses on fixing flaws, but Cable reveals that our brains learn fastest from positive peak experiences. By intentionally recalling and analyzing your past wins (e.g., a stellar presentation, a creative breakthrough), you train your mind to replicate that excellence. "Your highlight reel is your personal success algorithm" .

2. The 5-Second Replay Rule
After a small win—like nailing a tough conversation—pause for 5 seconds to mentally replay it. This seals the memory, making it easier to access later. Studies show this technique boosts confidence by 23% over time .

3. "Exceptional" Lives in the Edges
Cable argues that growth happens at the edges of your comfort zone. Identify moments when you felt just challenged enough (not overwhelmed) and seek more of them. Example: If you thrive in collaborative brainstorming, volunteer to lead more sessions .

4. Design Your Environment for Highlights
Surround yourself with "triggers" that cue peak states:

Physical: A "highlight wall" with photos of past wins.

Social: A group that celebrates small victories (not just big ones).
One CEO cited in the book credited this practice with doubling team innovation .

5. The 10% Stretch Principle
Instead of giant leaps, aim to stretch 10% beyond your current ability in daily tasks. A writer might draft one bolder paragraph; a shy person could initiate a quick chat. These micro-wins compound into transformative growth .

6. Reframe Failures as "Near-Highlights"
When things go wrong, ask: "What part of this was almost a highlight?" Maybe you stumbled in a pitch but connected with one listener. Cable shares how a failed startup founder used this mindset to pivot into a thriving consultancy .

7. Legacy is a Highlight Reel
Your life’s impact isn’t defined by consistency—it’s the peaks that inspire others. Cable urges readers to intentionally create "legacy highlights" (e.g., mentoring someone, launching a passion project). "The world remembers your fireworks, not your fog" .

Bonus Insight: The book includes a "Highlight Tracker" tool—a simple journal to log daily wins and spot patterns. Users reported 34% higher motivation within 30 days .

"You don’t rise to the level of your goals. You rise to the level of your highlights." —Daniel M. Cable

TUJUAN TERSELUBUNG PEMEKARAN WILAYAH PAPUA ADALAH CARA TERAKHIR NKRI UNTUK MENGGAGALKAN PAPUA BARAT YANG KINI TELAH BERADA DI DEPAN PINTU GERBANG EMAS KEMERDEKAANNYA

MIMBAR PENDIDIKAN POLITIK SERI 30.
.
1 April 2025
Oleh: Jacob Rumbiak.
Accademic and senior Reseach Associate.

Ketika reformasi bergulir di NKRI pada tahun 1999, Timor Timor berhasil memenangkan perjuangannya menggapai kemerdekaan Timor Leste, dan ketika itu pula Kongres Rakyat Papua 2 di tahun 2000 mayoritas rakyat Papua secara bermartabat memohon NKRI di bawah Presiden ke 3 Habibie dan Presiden NKRI ke 4 Abdulrahman Wahid agar menyerahkan hak kemerdekaan kepada orang Papua yang dijamin Pembukaan UUD Republik Indonesia Alinea Pertama.
Untuk merespon tuntutan Papua merdeka, pemerintah NKRI di bawah Presiden ke 5 Megawati soekarnoputri menawarkan OTSUS(UU Otsus nomor 21 tahun 2001) kepada orang Papua, dimana semua orang telah memahami dengan sangat jelas bahwa OTSUS bermakna WING WING SOLUSI POLITIK. Kenyataannya uang otsus dinikmati oleh para pejabat orang asli Papua maupun pendatang dengan se-enaknya angkuh dan sombong. Sedangkan orang-orang asli Papua aktivis Papua Merdeka secara diam pantau dan nonton para pejabat orang asli Papua yang tak tahu malu hidup berpesta pora di atas perjuangan para pejuang Papua Merdeka yang telah disiksa, dipenjarakan, dihina dan sesama pejuang yang telah gugur dalam perjuangan Papua Merdeka.
Penulis yang juga adalah aktor pejuang kemerdekaan yang pernah melewati jalan sengsara dalam perjuangan panjang hanya bisa senyum dan menyaksikan para pejabat sesama orang Papua yang hidup mewah menikmati uang otsus WING WING SOLUSI POLTIK.
Orang asli Papua yang telah dan dikini menjabat sebagai orang nomor 1 ditingkat Propinsi, kabupaten, distrik hingga desa secara langsung maupun tidak langsung telah berkompromi dan bersekongkol dengan kebijakkan NKRI untuk memekarkan seluruh wilayah Tanah Papua yang memiliki TUJUAN TERSELUBUNG yakni perbanyak jumlah kekuatan angkatan perang NKRI untuk menghambat perjuangan kemrdekaan Papua merdeka.
Penambahan wilayah berarti penambahan kekuatan angkatan perang NKRI.
Perlu kita memahami dengan benar peta kekuatan angkatan perang ditingkat nasional hingga desa. Karena khusus Papua diterapkannya penambahan Propinsi hingga desa maka penulis memperlihatkan tinkatan komando militer mulai dari tingkat propinsi hingga desa sebagaimana dibwah ini.
Komando Daerah Militer (disingkat Kodam) adalah komando utama pembinaan dan operasional kewilayahan TNI Angkatan Darat.
Kodam merupakan kompartemen strategis yang memiliki tugas pokok menyelenggarakan pembinaan kesiapan operasional atas segenap komandonya dan operasi pertahanan aktif di darat sesuai kebijakan Panglima TNI. Sebuah Kodam dipimpin oleh seorang Panglima Kodam atau disingkat Pangdam yang berpangkat Mayor Jenderal (Mayjen TNI).
Kekuatan Kodam terdiri dari Komando Resor Militer (Korem), yang membawahi Komando Distrik Militer (Kodim), yang membawahi Komando Rayon Militer (Koramil), yang membawahi Bintara Pembina Desa (Babinsa).
Mari kita hitung berapa propinsi baru yang sah ditetapkan oleh NKR sekaligus kabupaten baru distrik baru hingga desa baru di seluruh tanah Papua.

1. Kabupaten Biak Numfor,
2. Kabupaten Jayapura,
3. Kabupaten Keerom,

3. Kabupaten Dogiyai,
4. Kabupaten Deiyai,

Berdasarkan data resmi Departemen Dalam Indonesia mencatat bahwa di atas Tanah Papua telah resmi berdiri ENAM PROPINSI dan MEMILIKI 39 KABUPATEN.
Di Bulan Maret 2025 DPRI telah meloloskan 32 DOB diseluruh Tanah Papua sehingga selurh wilayah Tanah Papua terdapat 61 Kabupaten.
ARTINYA penambahan KODAM (Komando Daerah Militer), KOREM (Komando Resort Militer), KODIM (Komando Distrik Militer), KORAMI (Komando Rayon Militer dan BABINSA (Bintara Pembina Desa).
Penguasa pemerintahan militerisme bangsa asing NKRI SADAR bahwa OTSUS telah gagal total dan kemerdekaan Papua telah berada di depan pintu gerbang kemerdekaannya, maka satu-satunya jalan terakhir NKRI mempertahankan wilayah Papua tanah jajahan NKR adalah lewat MELEGALKAN SEMUA CARA ( CARA HARAM DAN HALAL) untuk mempertahankan wilayah Papua tanah jajahan NKRI dan kini NKRI sadar benar bahwa HANYA SATU SATUNYA CARA TERAKHIR ADALAH MENGGUNAKAN KEKUATAN ANGKATAN PERANGNYA yang disusup lewat AGENDA TERSELUBUNGNYA YAKNI PEMEKARAN SELURUH WILAYAH PAPUA yang di identik dengan seluruh wilayah Papua wajib dipenuhi dengan kekuatan angkatan perang NKRI sebagai satu satunya solusi akhir mempertahankan Papua bagian dari NKRI.
PERTANYAAN: Apakah tujuan terselubung yang jahat ini bisa berhasil?
JAWAB: NKRI PASTI GAGAL DENGAN RENCANA JAHATNYA ITU DAN DIKEMUDIAN HARI SEJARAH AKAN MENCATAT KEJAHATAN TERSELURBUNG TERSEBUT SEKALIGUS SEJARAH ITU PULA AKAN MELEBELKAN STIKMA PENJAJAH KEPADA NKRI YANG ANGKUH DAN JAHAT TERSEBUT.
Kenapa saya berani menjawab NKRI pasti gagal? Sebab cara yang sama NKRI gunakan di Timor Timor lewat pamerkan kekuatan milternya untuk mempertahankan Timor Timor yang berakhir gagal sekaligus menelang kekalahan pahit yang memalukan, rakyat Timor Leste keluar sebagai pemenang lahirlah Negara Timor Leste yang kita kenal hari ini.
WAKTU AKAN MENJELASKAN KEPADA SEMUA KITA BAHWA RENCANA JAHAT NKRI AKAN BERAKHIR DENGAN SIA SIA DAN MEMALUKAN..

In Kaizen: The Japanese Method for Transforming Habits, One Small Step at a Time

In Kaizen: The Japanese Method for Transforming Habits, One Small Step at a Time, Sarah Harvey introduces readers to the powerful philosophy of Kaizen, a Japanese approach to continuous improvement. Rooted in the belief that small, incremental changes can lead to profound transformations over time, Kaizen emphasizes patience, consistency, and mindfulness. Harvey blends practical advice with cultural insights, illustrating how this method can be applied to personal growth, relationships, work, and more. Here are 10 key lessons and insights from this inspiring book.

1. Start Small, but Start Now
The central tenet of Kaizen is that significant change begins with small, manageable steps. Rather than overhauling your life all at once, simply starting with one tiny action builds momentum and creates lasting change over time.

2. Consistency Is More Important Than Speed
Harvey emphasizes that Kaizen is about persistence, not quick results. Making small, consistent improvements over time is more effective and sustainable than trying to achieve a major change overnight. Kaizen is a long-term mindset.

3. Break Down Big Goals into Tiny Steps
Big goals can feel overwhelming, which often leads to procrastination. Kaizen encourages breaking down ambitious goals into smaller, manageable actions, making them approachable and easier to accomplish.

4. Eliminate Perfectionism
Perfectionism often prevents people from starting something new. Kaizen teaches that progress doesn’t have to be perfect—what matters is taking small steps forward, even if they’re imperfect or messy.

5. Create Habits Through Repetition
Harvey explains that small actions repeated consistently over time form habits. By starting with one small, positive change, you can gradually build habits that support your goals and values.

6. Celebrate Small Wins
Kaizen encourages celebrating even the smallest achievements. Recognizing progress, no matter how minor, builds motivation, confidence, and a sense of accomplishment, which keeps you moving forward.

7. Focus on the Process, Not Just the Outcome
Harvey highlights the importance of enjoying the journey, not just focusing on the destination. Kaizen teaches that the process of improvement itself is valuable and fulfilling, regardless of the outcome.

8. Use Mindfulness to Identify Areas of Improvement
Kaizen requires self-awareness and mindfulness to identify areas where small changes can make a big difference. By reflecting on your habits and behaviors, you can determine where to focus your efforts for the most meaningful impact.

9. Embrace Failure as a Learning Opportunity
Rather than fearing failure, Kaizen encourages viewing setbacks as opportunities to learn and grow. Each mistake is a chance to adjust your strategy and continue improving.

10. Kaizen Is a Lifestyle, Not a One-Time Fix
Ultimately, Kaizen is about adopting a mindset of continuous improvement in all areas of life. It’s not a one-time effort but a lifelong commitment to growth, learning, and striving to be a little better each day.

Kaizen by Sarah Harvey is a practical and inspiring guide to achieving meaningful change through small, consistent steps. By introducing readers to the Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement, Harvey empowers them to transform their lives without the overwhelm of drastic changes or perfectionist expectations.

The central message of the book is that lasting transformation is built on small, intentional actions over time. By focusing on consistency, mindfulness, and patience, you can create positive changes in every area of your life. This book is a powerful reminder that the smallest steps can lead to the biggest changes when approached with intention and persistence.

Good Boundaries and Goodbyes

I stumbled upon Good Boundaries and Goodbyes at a time when I was wrestling with the weight of certain relationships in my life. Some felt draining, others left me questioning my worth, and a few had me walking on eggshells just to keep the peace. I wasn’t unfamiliar with the concept of boundaries, but somehow, applying them felt like betrayal—like I was failing at love, patience, or even faith. Then, this book found me. Maybe it was divine timing, or perhaps it was my soul nudging me toward what I needed to hear. Lysa TerKeurst has a way of writing that doesn’t just inform—it convicts. She speaks with the tenderness of someone who has been there, yet with the clarity of someone who has fought for her freedom. Each chapter felt like a mirror, reflecting not just where I had been, but where I needed to go. Here are eight lessons I couldn’t ignore—lessons that reshaped the way I see love, relationships, and, most importantly, myself.

1. Boundaries Aren’t Walls—They’re Doors: For the longest time, I thought boundaries were a way to push people away, a defense mechanism to keep my heart from getting hurt. But Lysa explains them differently. She describes them as doors with locks—not walls that trap, but doors that allow us to open up wisely. This changed everything for me. Boundaries aren’t about cutting people off; they’re about choosing when and how to engage. They allow love to flow in a healthy way, rather than out of obligation or fear. Anyone struggling with guilt over setting boundaries needs to hear this: You’re not shutting people out—you’re inviting them into a healthier way of relating.

2. Love Without Boundaries Isn’t Love—It’s Enablement: This one hit me hard. I always believed love meant giving, sacrificing, and making allowances—even when it hurt. But Lysa challenges that mindset by showing how Jesus Himself had boundaries. He loved deeply, but He never allowed others to manipulate, control, or misuse Him. I saw how I had been enabling certain behaviors under the disguise of love. I was allowing emotional exhaustion because I thought it was the Christian thing to do. But true love doesn’t rescue people from their own responsibilities. It empowers them to change. And sometimes, loving someone means saying no when they expect yes.

3. Not Everyone Deserves Unlimited Access to You: This was an uncomfortable truth. I had people in my life who demanded too much—my time, my energy, my emotional space. And yet, I felt obligated to keep giving because I didn’t want to seem unkind. Lysa writes that just as we don’t give every person in our lives the key to our homes, we shouldn’t give everyone full access to our hearts. Some people can be acquaintances. Some can be close friends. And some—no matter how much we care—should only be loved from a distance. Realizing this set me free.

4. Boundaries Don’t Ruin Relationships—They Reveal Them: If a relationship falls apart because you set a boundary, it means the relationship was built on control, not love. This was tough to accept. I feared that if I started setting boundaries, people would leave. But Lysa explains that healthy relationships can withstand boundaries, while unhealthy ones will resist them. I tested this in my life, and she was right. Some relationships deepened because they were rooted in mutual respect. Others? They faded because they were only sustained by my over-functioning. And honestly, losing those wasn’t a loss—it was clarity.

5. You Don’t Have to Explain or Defend Your Boundaries: I’ve always been a people-pleaser, so setting boundaries felt like something I had to justify. I thought if I explained well enough, people would understand and accept them. But Lysa reminds us that we don’t owe anyone an essay on why we’re protecting our peace. A simple “I can’t do that” is enough. “I’m not available for that conversation right now” is enough. “I love you, but I can’t be involved in that” is enough. The right people will respect it. The wrong ones will push back—but that’s not our burden to carry.

6. Emotional Health Is a Biblical Responsibility: This one surprised me. I never linked emotional health to faith in the way Lysa does. She explains that God calls us to guard our hearts not because we should be selfish, but because our hearts determine the course of our lives (Proverbs 4:23). That means taking responsibility for our own well-being isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. If we keep pouring into others without taking care of ourselves, we eventually have nothing left to give. Setting boundaries is a way of honoring God’s design for us, not rebelling against it.

7. Forgiveness and Boundaries Can Coexist: One of the biggest lies I believed was that if I forgave someone, I had to let them back into my life the same way. But Lysa makes a powerful distinction: Forgiveness is given, but trust is built. We can fully forgive someone without granting them full access again. This was a game-changer for me. It meant I could let go of resentment without pretending things were okay when they weren’t. It gave me permission to heal without having to reopen doors that God had closed.

8. Saying Goodbye Can Be the Most Loving Thing You Do: I used to think goodbyes were failures. That if I had to walk away, it meant I hadn’t loved well enough, tried hard enough, or prayed deeply enough. But Lysa reframes it in a way that made me see differently. Sometimes, the most loving thing we can do—for ourselves and for the other person—is to say goodbye. Some relationships are seasonal. Some were never meant to last. And some require endings so both people can grow into who God intended them to be. Saying goodbye isn’t giving up. It’s making space for the right things to flourish.

How to Suffer Well

Suffering is one of life’s only guarantees. No matter how much we plan, protect ourselves, or strive for happiness, pain will find us—whether through loss, failure, uncertainty, or heartbreak. Yet, most of us are never taught how to deal with suffering in a way that empowers us. Instead, we resist, avoid, or numb ourselves, often making our suffering worse.

In How to Suffer Well, Peter Hollins offers a radical yet deeply compassionate approach: instead of fearing suffering, we should learn how to experience it in a way that makes us stronger, wiser, and more resilient. This book is not about glorifying hardship but about transforming our relationship with pain. Hollins weaves together psychology, philosophy, and real-life strategies to show that suffering can be endured—not just with gritted teeth, but with grace, purpose, and even personal growth.

Here are lessons from How to Suffer Well:

1. Pain Is Inevitable, but Suffering Is Optional
We cannot escape pain, but we do have control over how much we suffer. Suffering often comes from our resistance to pain, our mental stories about it, and our fear of what it means. By shifting our mindset, we can reduce unnecessary suffering.

2. Emotional Agility Is the Key to Suffering Well
Suffering becomes unbearable when we either suppress our emotions or let them consume us. True resilience comes from emotional agility—the ability to sit with discomfort, process it, and move forward without being paralyzed by it.

3. Avoiding Suffering Only Amplifies It
When we run from suffering—whether through distraction, addiction, or denial—it doesn’t go away. It lingers, festers, and often returns even stronger. Facing suffering head-on, with courage and self-awareness, is the only way to move through it.

4. Meaning Can Be Found in the Midst of Pain
Not all suffering has an inherent purpose, but we can choose to create meaning from it. Whether it’s learning a lesson, growing in strength, or using our pain to help others, we can transform suffering into something valuable rather than letting it consume us.

5. Your Thoughts Shape Your Experience of Suffering
Suffering is not just about what happens to us, but about the story we tell ourselves about it. If we believe pain is proof that we are weak or unlucky, it will break us. If we see it as a challenge to overcome, we will endure with greater resilience.

6. Suffering Can Deepen Connection Instead of Creating Isolation
When we suffer, it’s easy to feel alone. But suffering is a universal human experience. When we are vulnerable and open about our pain, we strengthen our relationships and find comfort in shared struggles. True connection often emerges in our hardest moments.

7. Self-Compassion Is More Powerful Than Self-Criticism
Many of us make our suffering worse by blaming or judging ourselves for our pain. Instead of asking, “Why am I so weak?” or “Why can’t I handle this?”*, we must treat ourselves with the same kindness we would offer a friend. Self-compassion helps us heal.

8. Suffering Teaches Us What Truly Matters
Hardship strips away illusions and distractions, forcing us to reevaluate our priorities. When we suffer, we often gain clarity about what (and who) is most important. In this way, suffering can realign us with a more meaningful life.

9. Growth Comes Not From Avoiding Discomfort, but From Embracing It
Every difficult experience has the potential to make us wiser, stronger, and more resilient—if we allow it to. Growth doesn’t happen in comfort; it happens in struggle. By embracing suffering instead of fearing it, we transform it into a source of personal power.

How to Suffer Well is a deeply insightful and compassionate book that challenges the way we think about pain. Hollins doesn’t offer empty platitudes or unrealistic promises—he gives us practical, actionable tools for navigating suffering in a way that builds resilience and inner peace.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by hardship, trapped by emotional pain, or unsure how to move forward, this book is a powerful guide. Suffering is inevitable, but how we suffer is a choice—and this book teaches us how to suffer well.

Andalah Pencipta Realitas Hidupmu Sendiri: Hasil dari Iman, Tindakan, Ketekunan dan Kesabaran

 "Percayalah sepenuhnya bahwa Anda telah menerima berkat itu, hiduplah dalam keyakinan itu, tabahlah dalam kesabaran, teguh dalam iman, dan teruslah berjuang. Karena dunia yang Anda lihat ini adalah buah dari keyakinan orang-orang beriman, dan hasil perjuangan mereka yang bertindak untuk mewujudkan impiannya."

Inilah kebenaran yang mendalam:

  1. Anda adalah pencipta realitas Anda
    Dunia ini bukan kebetulan atau nasib buruk yang menimpa Anda - ini adalah ciptaan Anda sendiri. Seperti seorang anak adalah buah dari diri Anda, seperti rumah adalah karya tangan Anda, demikian pula dunia Anda adalah manifestasi dari keyakinan dan tindakan Anda.


  2. Tanggung jawab penuh atas hidup Anda
    Berhentilah mencari-cari kesalahan, baik pada keadaan maupun orang lain. Jangan mengharapkan belas kasihan atau pertolongan orang lain untuk mengubah nasib Anda. Kekuatan perubahan ada di tangan Anda sendiri.


  3. Iman yang hidup melalui tindakan
    "Iman tanpa perbuatan adalah mati" (Yakobus 2:26). Iman sejati bukan hanya percaya, tetapi bergerak mewujudkan apa yang dipercayai. Seperti dikatakan dalam Ibrani 11:1, iman adalah dasar dari segala yang kita harapkan dan bukti dari yang tidak kita lihat.


  4. Kekuatan kreatif iman
    Seluruh alam semesta ini diciptakan oleh firman Allah (Ibrani 11:3). Demikian pula, hidup Anda adalah ciptaan dari kata-kata, keyakinan, dan tindakan Anda. Apa yang terlihat lahir dari yang tak terlihat.


Seruan untuk bertindak:

  • Hentikan mentalitas korban
  • Berhenti menyalahkan orang lain
  • Tinggalkan harapan kosong akan pertolongan dari luar


  • Ambil kendali penuh atas hidup Anda

  • Bertindaklah sekarang juga dengan keyakinan penuh

Ingatlah: Setiap pencapaian besar dalam sejarah dimulai dari iman yang diwujudkan dalam tindakan. Mulailah menciptakan dunia yang Anda inginkan - karena sungguh, dunia ini adalah milik Anda, ciptaan Anda, tanggung jawab Anda.

"Segala sesuatu mungkin bagi orang yang percaya!" (Markus 9:23). Percayalah, lalu wujudkan!

Iman dan Perbuatan, Ketekunan, Kesabaran dan Kepercayaan Diri Membawa Hasil

"Berimanlah, hiduplah dalam iman itu, bersabar, bertekun, dan terus berjuang—karena dunia ini adalah hasil iman orang-orang yang percaya, dan buah perjuangan mereka yang bertindak untuk mewujudkan impiannya."

Kalimat ini adalah seruan spiritual yang mendalam, mengingatkan kita bahwa:

  1. Iman sebagai Fondasi Hidup

    • Iman bukan sekadar percaya, tapi kekuatan yang menggerakkan tindakan. Seperti pepatah, "Iman tanpa perbuatan adalah mati" (Yakobus 2:26). Dunia dibangun oleh orang-orang yang berani mempercayai visi yang tak terlihat, lalu mewujudkannya.

  2. Kesabaran dan Ketekunan

    • Perjuangan membutuhkan ketabahan. Seperti petani menanti musim panen, atau seperti Nabi Musa memimpin bangsa Israel—proses seringkali panjang, tapi iman memberi kekuatan untuk bertahan.

  3. Aksi Nyata

    • Iman tanpa tindakan adalah ilusi. Impian jadi kenyataan ketika diikuti kerja keras. Contoh:

      • Para pendiri bangsa berjuang demi kemerdekaan, meski harus menghadapi rintangan.

      • Ilmuwan dan penemu seperti Thomas Edison gagal ribuan kali sebelum menciptakan lampu.

  4. Warisan untuk Generasi Mendatang

    • Dunia yang kita nikmati hari ini—hak asasi, teknologi, kebebasan—adalah hasil perjuangan orang-orang beriman di masa lalu. Kini, giliran kita melanjutkan estafet itu.

Pesan untuk Anda:
Jika Anda punya mimpi, percayalah, lalu bertindaklah. Hadapi rintangan dengan kesabaran, dan ingat:

"Gunung pun bisa dipindah dengan iman sebesar biji sesawi." (Matius 17:20).

Jadilah bagian dari mereka yang mengubah dunia—dengan iman, doa, dan tindakan nyata. 

  1. Tanpa iman tidak pernah ada kenyataan!
  2. Tanpa kesabaran tidak pernah meneumi hasil!
  3. Tanpa kerja-keras tidak ada hasil!
  4. Tanpa ketekunan dalam kerjakeras tidak pernah ada buah.
Semua orang menerima nafas hidup, matahari dan hujan, semua berkat yang sama. Tergantung tangan dan lumbung kita, sebesar apa mampu kita kelola dan sebesar apa dapat kita menampung untuk kehidupan ini dan kehidupan yang akan datang.

Di atas semua, percayalah. dunia ini sesungguhnya adil, merata dan berimbang bagi semua pihak, semua orang, semua makhluk dan seluruh dunia. Ia hanya dapat dinikmati oleh orang-orang beriman, yang bekerja-keras, yang sabar, yang tekun dan yang percacaya diri mereka akan mencapainya.

"Dunia Ini Adalah Ciptaanmu Sendiri": Menghentikan Kebiasaan Menyalahkan Orang Lain

Oleh Yikwanak Kole


Pernahkah Anda merasa bahwa hidup ini tidak adil?

Bahwa nasib buruk yang menimpa Anda, keluarga, atau bahkan bangsa adalah kesalahan orang lain? Pemerintah yang korup, orang tua yang tidak mendukung, teman yang menghianati, atau sistem yang menindas?


Sekarang, bayangkan sebuah prinsip yang mungkin akan mengubah cara Anda memandang hidup selamanya:


"Dunia ini adalah ciptaanmu sendiri."

Ini berarti bahwa segala sesuatu yang terjadi dalam hidup Anda—baik suka maupun duka—tidak sepenuhnya disebabkan oleh orang lain, melainkan oleh pikiran, keyakinan, dan tindakan Anda sendiri.


Mengapa Kita Suka Menyalahkan Orang Lain?

Menyalahkan pihak luar adalah mekanisme pertahanan psikologis yang membuat kita merasa lebih nyaman. Daripada mengakui bahwa kita mungkin ikut berkontribusi pada masalah, lebih mudah untuk mengatakan:

  1. "Saya miskin karena pemerintah tidak adil."
  2. "Hubungan saya hancur karena pasangan saya egois."
  3. "Saya gagal karena orang tua tidak mendukung."

Namun, pola pikir seperti ini justru membuat kita terjebak dalam mentalitas korban—sebuah kondisi di mana kita merasa tidak berdaya dan selalu bergantung pada faktor eksternal untuk perubahan.


Jika Dunia Adalah Ciptaan Anda, Maka Anda Bertanggung Jawab

Prinsip "Dunia ini adalah ciptaanmu sendiri" berasal dari pemahaman bahwa:

  1. Pikiran Anda Membentuk Realitas

    Apa yang Anda fokuskan, itulah yang Anda tarik. Jika Anda terus-memusuhi kegagalan, Anda akan melihat lebih banyak kegagalan. Jika Anda yakin bahwa hidup ini keras, maka hidup akan terasa lebih keras bagi Anda.


  2. Tindakan Anda Menciptakan Hasil
    Jika Anda terus-menerus mengeluh tetapi tidak berusaha mengubah keadaan, maka hasilnya akan tetap sama. Sebaliknya, jika Anda mengambil tanggung jawab, Anda mulai melihat peluang baru.


  3. Keyakinan Anda Membatasi atau Memperluas Hidup Anda
    Jika Anda yakin bahwa "orang seperti saya tidak mungkin sukses," maka Anda akan membuktikan keyakinan itu benar. Tapi jika Anda percaya bahwa Anda bisa berubah, maka jalan baru akan terbuka.


Bagaimana Berhenti Menyalahkan Orang Lain?

Bertanya: "Apa Peran Saya dalam Masalah Ini?"

Daripada menyalahkan orang lain, tanyakan pada diri sendiri:

  • Apakah saya bisa mengambil tindakan berbeda?
  • Apakah pola pikir saya memperburuk situasi?


Fokus pada Hal yang Bisa Dikendalikan

Anda tidak bisa mengubah orang lain, tetapi Anda bisa mengubah cara Anda merespons mereka.

Ganti Narasi Korban dengan Narasi Kekuatan

Alih-alih mengatakan:
"Saya terjebak dalam pekerjaan ini karena bos saya jahat."

Coba katakan:

    "Saya memilih untuk tetap di sini sambil mencari cara meningkatkan skill saya."


    Ambil Tanggung Jawab, Bukan Kesalahan

    Tanggung jawab bukan tentang mengakui bahwa Anda "bersalah," melainkan tentang mengakui bahwa Anda punya kekuatan untuk mengubah keadaan.

    Apa yang Terjadi Jika Anda Berhenti Menyalahkan?

    • Anda Merasa Lebih Berdaya – Ketika Anda berhenti menjadi korban, Anda mulai melihat solusi.

    • Hidup Menjadi Lebih Ringan – Tidak perlu marah-marah pada dunia, karena Anda fokus pada apa yang bisa diperbaiki.

    • Anda Menciptakan Realitas yang Lebih Baik – Dengan mengubah cara berpikir dan bertindak, hasil dalam hidup pun berubah.


    Kesimpulan

    Jika dunia adalah ciptaan Anda sendiri, maka Anda adalah arsitek nasib Anda. Berhenti menyalahkan orang lain bukan berarti mengabaikan ketidakadilan, melainkan mengambil kembali kekuatan Anda untuk berubah.

    Mulai hari ini, cobalah bertanya:
    "Apa yang bisa saya lakukan untuk menciptakan dunia yang lebih baik bagi diri saya?"

    Karena pada akhirnya, hidup bukanlah tentang apa yang terjadi pada Anda, tetapi tentang bagaimana Anda meresponsnya.

    Leader in You by Dale Carnegie

    timeless guide to harnessing the power of interpersonal relationships. Dale Carnegie's principles, originally outlined in his classic How to Win Friends and Influence People, are revisited and adapted for modern readers, providing a roadmap for personal and professional growth. This book is not just about leadership in a traditional sense; it’s about leading with empathy, understanding, and authenticity.

    The essence of Carnegie's philosophy is that effective leadership begins within. It’s about recognizing that every individual has the potential to influence others positively, regardless of their position. The lessons in this book are practical, actionable, and relevant for anyone looking to improve their influence and success in an ever-changing world.

    Key Lessons from The Leader In You:

        1. Building Genuine Relationships
     Authenticity is key. Carnegie emphasizes that true connection stems from genuine interest in others. Building relationships on sincerity fosters trust and loyalty.

        2. The Importance of Listening
      Effective communication is a two-way street. The book highlights that listening intently to others not only makes them feel valued but also opens doors to deeper understanding and collaboration.

        3. The Power of Positive Reinforcement
     Carnegie discusses how praise and encouragement can significantly boost morale and motivation. Recognizing the strengths in others creates an environment of support and productivity.

        4. Understanding Human Motivations
    By recognizing what drives people, such as the desire for appreciation and respect leaders can tailor their approach to meet the needs of their team, enhancing overall effectiveness.

        5. Handling Criticism with Care
    The book provides strategies for delivering constructive feedback without diminishing the recipient’s self-esteem. The goal is to foster growth rather than defensiveness.

        6. Embracing Change and Adaptability
    In a rapidly changing world, adaptability is crucial. Carnegie encourages readers to embrace change as an opportunity for growth rather than a setback.

        7. Leading by Example
    A true leader embodies the values they wish to instill in others. Carnegie highlights the importance of integrity and setting a positive example, which inspires others to follow suit.

        8. The Art of Persuasion
     Carnegie outlines techniques for influencing others without manipulation. Persuasion rooted in empathy and understanding is far more effective than coercion.

        9. Creating a Vision and Inspiring Others
    Successful leaders articulate a clear vision and inspire their teams to work towards it. This shared purpose cultivates motivation and collective effort.

    Dale Carnegie’s The Leader In You is more than just a self-help book; it’s a comprehensive guide to personal development and effective leadership. The lessons provided are not only applicable in professional settings but also enrich personal relationships, making it a valuable read for anyone seeking to enhance their influence and build meaningful connections. Carnegie's enduring wisdom reminds us that leadership is about people, and by investing in our relationships, we unlock the potential for success in all areas of life.

    Don't Believe Everything You Think!

    Your mind is not a friend it’s a tyrant. It spins stories of inadequacy, catastrophizes the future, and replays past failures like a broken record. This mental noise isn’t just distracting; it’s soul-crushing. Joseph Nguyen’s "Don’t Believe Everything You Think" isn’t another platitude-filled pep talk. It’s a scalpel, cutting through the illusion that your thoughts define reality. In a world drowning in overthinking, anxiety, and self-doubt, this book is a rebellion against the prison of the mind. If you’re exhausted by the war inside your head, these pages don’t just offer relief they hand you the keys to freedom.  

    7 Lessons from "Don’t Believe Everything You Think":

    1. Your Thoughts Are Not Facts They’re Fiction. Nguyen’s core thesis: Thoughts are stories, not truths. The mind generates narratives (“I’m not enough,” “This will fail”) masquerading as reality. Exhaustion and anxiety thrive when you conflate thoughts with facts. The antidote? Observe your mind like a movie screen. Ask: “Is this thought serving me, or enslaving me?” Disidentify. Let the storm pass without building a shelter in it.  

    2. Suffering Begins When You Cling to the “Why”. The mind obsesses over solving problems, dissecting past traumas, or seeking reasons for pain. Nguyen argues this fixation perpetuates suffering. “Not everything needs to be understood to be released,” he writes. Exhaustion dissolves when you stop interrogating every wound and instead let it exist without judgment. Healing isn’t in the analysis it’s in the surrender.  

    3. You Are the Sky Your Thoughts Are Just Weather. A central metaphor: You are not your thoughts; you’re the awareness beneath them. Emotions, doubts, and fears are passing clouds, not the sky itself. Nguyen urges readers to anchor in this awareness. When exhaustion or self-criticism arises, remind yourself: “This too shall pass." The less you fight the storm, the quicker it dissipates.  

    4. Presence Is the Ultimate Antidote to Overthinking. The mind’s chaos thrives in the past or future. Nguyen insists that presence grounding in the now is the only space where peace exists. Exhaustion is often a byproduct of mental time travel. Breathe. Feel your feet on the ground. Taste your coffee. “The present moment,” he writes, “is where life actually happens. The rest is noise.” 

    5. Self-Compassion Isn’t Soft—It’s Revolutionary. The mind’s default mode is self-attack: "You should’ve done better. You’re failing.” Nguyen reframes self-compassion as radical defiance. Treat yourself with the kindness you’d offer a struggling friend. Say aloud: “It’s okay. I’m human.” Exhaustion softens when you stop weaponizing your thoughts against yourself.  

    6. You Don’t Need to “Fix” Yourself to Be Worthy. The self-help industry profits by convincing you you’re broken. Nguyen dismantles this lie: “You are already whole.” Striving to “improve” implies lack. True peace comes not from fixing but from accepting. Exhaustion fades when you stop chasing an idealized version of yourself and rest in the truth of who you are here, now.  

    7. Freedom Lives in Questioning, Not Controlling. You’ll never control every thought, but you can question their power. Nguyen teaches: When a toxic thought arises (*
    “I’m unlovable”), ask: “Is this true? What evidence do I have?” Exhaustion thrives in mental autopilot; freedom blooms in interrogation. The more you doubt your doubts, the less they own you.

    Where My Life Have Been?

    Have you ever looked at your life and wondered, How did I get here? Am I truly living, or just existing? In Where Have I Been All My Life?, Cheryl Rice embarks on a deeply personal journey of self-discovery, grief, and transformation. Through the loss of her mother and the unraveling of her own carefully built identity, Rice invites us to ask:

    What happens when the life we’ve built no longer feels like our own?
    How do we heal from the loss of those who defined us?
    Can we ever truly know ourselves if we’ve spent years trying to meet others' expectations?
    This book is more than a memoir—it’s a call to wake up, to reconnect with our authentic selves, and to embrace the messiness of being human.

    Here are 10 lessons from Where Have I Been All My Life?:

    1. Grief is Not Just About Losing Someone—It’s About Losing Yourself
    When Rice lost her mother, she realized she had also lost the person who shaped much of her identity. Grief isn’t just about missing someone; it’s about figuring out who you are without them.

    2. We Wear Masks to Fit In, But They Can Become Our Prisons
    For years, Rice played the role of the “good daughter,” the “successful professional,” and the “perfect wife.” But beneath those roles, she felt lost. If we define ourselves by others' expectations, we risk forgetting who we truly are.

    3. Healing Begins When We Stop Avoiding Pain
    Rice tried to keep busy and avoid facing her grief, but it only deepened her suffering. The only way to heal is to feel—to sit with our emotions instead of running from them.

    4. Self-Compassion is Harder Than Self-Criticism—But It’s Necessary
    Like many of us, Rice was her own harshest critic. Learning to be kind to ourselves, to treat ourselves with the same gentleness we offer others, is a radical act of self-love.

    5. Vulnerability is the Bridge to Authentic Connection
    For much of her life, Rice kept her struggles private. But when she finally opened up, she discovered that true connection happens when we allow ourselves to be seen, imperfections and all.

    6. Busyness is Not the Same as Fulfillment
    Rice’s packed schedule gave her a sense of control, but it also kept her from confronting the emptiness she felt inside. Doing more doesn’t mean living more. Sometimes, slowing down is the real work.

    7. We Must Give Ourselves Permission to Change
    Just because we’ve been a certain way for years doesn’t mean we’re stuck that way. We have the right to evolve, to rewrite our stories, and to become who we were meant to be.

    8. Happiness Isn’t a Destination—It’s a Practice
    Rice learned that joy doesn’t come from external achievements but from small, everyday choices—choosing gratitude, choosing connection, choosing presence.

    9. Our Relationship with Ourselves Shapes Every Other Relationship
    The way we treat ourselves determines how we interact with the world. When we heal our inner wounds, we show up more fully in our relationships, careers, and communities.

    10. Finding Yourself is Not About Reinventing—It’s About Remembering
    Rice’s journey wasn’t about becoming someone new—it was about rediscovering the person she had always been underneath the layers of expectations, grief, and fear. The real you has been there all along—you just have to come home to yourself.

    Where Have I Been All My Life? is a powerful reminder that self-discovery is not a one-time event but an ongoing journey. Life’s hardships can break us, or they can wake us up. Through grief, self-reflection, and courage, Cheryl Rice shows us that it’s never too late to reclaim our lives, our dreams, and our true selves.

    Bunny Michael’s Hello, Higher Self is a heartwarming and insightful guide to self-love and acceptance. Through a blend of personal anecdotes and practical advice, Michael offers readers a roadmap to go through the challenges of life and embrace their true selves. Here are seven key lessons I gleaned from this inspiring book:

    1. Self-Love is Not Selfish

    One of the most common misconceptions about self-love is that it’s selfish. Michael debunks this myth, explaining that caring for oneself is essential for overall well-being and happiness. When we prioritize our needs and desires, we become better equipped to love and support others.

    2. Embrace Your Inner Child

    Our inner child is a powerful force that shapes our beliefs and behaviors. Michael encourages readers to reconnect with their inner child through play, creativity, and self-compassion. Through nurturing this part of ourselves, we can heal past wounds and live more authentically.

    3. The Power of Affirmations

    Affirmations are positive statements that can help reprogram our subconscious mind. Michael provides a variety of affirmations to help readers cultivate self-love and confidence. By repeating these affirmations daily, we can shift our mindset and create a more positive reality.

    4. Let Go of the Past

    Holding onto past hurts and regrets can weigh us down and prevent us from moving forward. Michael offers practical tips for letting go of the past, including forgiveness, journaling, and mindfulness. Freeing ourselves from the burdens of the past we can embrace the present and create a brighter future.

    5. Find Your Tribe

    Surrounding ourselves with positive and supportive people can have a profound impact on our mental health and well-being. Michael emphasizes the importance of finding a tribe of like-minded individuals who can offer love, encouragement, and understanding.

    6. Practice Self-Care

    Self-care is essential for maintaining a healthy mind and body. Michael provides a wide range of self-care practices, including meditation, exercise, healthy eating, and spending time in nature. When we prioritize self-care, we can reduce stress, boost our mood, and increase our overall resilience.

    7. Embrace Your Uniqueness

    Everyone is unique and has their own special gifts and talents. Michael encourages readers to embrace their individuality and celebrate their differences. By embracing our uniqueness, we can live more authentically and contribute to the world in meaningful ways.

    Hello, Higher Self is a must-read for anyone seeking to improve their self-esteem and live a more fulfilling life. Through Michael’s compassionate and insightful guidance, readers will discover the power of self-love and learn to embrace their true selves.

    Becoming Supernatural" by Dr. Joe Dispenza

    "Becoming Supernatural" by Dr. Joe Dispenza isn't just a book about neuroscience and quantum physics; it's a profound and often mind-bending exploration of the human potential to transcend our physical limitations and create a reality that aligns with our deepest desires. Dispenza's approach isn't about magical thinking or wishful fantasies; it's about grounding extraordinary possibilities in scientific principles, offering a framework for understanding how our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs can shape our biology and our experience of the world. It's a book that challenges us to question our assumptions about reality and to consider the possibility that we are capable of far more than we currently believe.

    Here’s a deeper, more impactful, and personal summary of its core lessons:

    1: Your Thoughts Shape Your Reality
    Dispenza emphasizes that our thoughts and emotions have the power to alter our biology and our lives. This lesson challenges me to take responsibility for my mental patterns and to consciously choose thoughts that align with the person I want to become. It’s a call to stop being a victim of circumstance and to start creating my reality from the inside out.

    2: Break Free from the Past
    Many of us are trapped in old habits, emotions, and beliefs that keep us stuck. Dispenza teaches that true transformation requires letting go of the past—both physically and emotionally. For me, this means releasing grudges, forgiving myself, and stepping into the present moment with a clean slate. It’s about breaking the cycle of living as the same person, day after day.

    3: Meditation as a Tool for Transformation
    Meditation isn’t just about relaxation; it’s a powerful tool for rewiring the brain and accessing higher states of consciousness. This lesson inspires me to commit to a daily practice of meditation, not as a chore but as a sacred act of self-creation. It’s about using meditation to tap into the infinite potential within me and to align with the energy of the universe.

    4: The Power of Heart-Centered Living
    Dispenza teaches that the heart is more than just a physical organ—it’s a source of intelligence and energy. By living from the heart, we can access deeper levels of love, compassion, and intuition. This lesson challenges me to shift from a mind-driven existence to a heart-centered one, to make decisions based on love rather than fear, and to connect with others on a soul level.

    5: You Are Not Your Body or Your Environment
    We often identify with our physical bodies and external circumstances, but Dispenza reminds us that we are more than that. We are energy, consciousness, and potential. This lesson encourages me to see myself as limitless, to stop defining myself by my job, relationships, or appearance, and to tap into the infinite possibilities of who I can become.

    6: Create Your Future in the Present
    Dispenza teaches that the future isn’t something that happens to us—it’s something we create in the present moment. By visualizing and emotionally embodying our desired future, we can literally rewire our brains and bodies to align with that reality. This lesson inspires me to spend time each day imagining the life I want, not as a distant dream but as a present truth.

    7: You Are a Co-Creator with the Universe
    We are not separate from the universe; we are part of it. Dispenza’s work reminds me that I have the power to co-create my life in partnership with the energy of the cosmos. This lesson is a call to step into my role as a conscious creator, to trust in the intelligence of the universe, and to align my intentions with the greater flow of life.

    Deeper Reflection
    Becoming Supernatural isn’t just a book—it’s a roadmap to transcending the ordinary and stepping into the extraordinary. It challenges me to ask: Where am I living on autopilot? Where am I allowing my past to dictate my future? Where am I underestimating my own power? This book is deeply personal because it calls me to shed the layers of limitation I’ve accumulated over the years and to step into my true nature as a limitless, divine being. It’s not just about changing my life; it’s about becoming supernatural—breaking free from the constraints of the material world and aligning with the infinite potential of the universe. It’s a journey of self-discovery, self-mastery, and self-transcendence, and it starts with a single decision: to no longer be ordinary.
