Do you like you?

Hi! This post is dedicated to my self development.
This recent days, I'm lack of confidence. I don't know why.
Smile, fluently in english or any other foreign language and always friendly are the most important things for my job.
All of you can guess easily what's my job.
Yes, correct. 100 for you!
I'm a hotelier. Work in the hotel.
I'm happy with my job. This is my passion and this industry is very relevant with my major in college.
But, sometimes, I always underestimate myself.
I always think the negative one. Normally, that condition is very ridiculous for my brain. You must be know the result, I can't act properly and turn to negative one.
One day, I scrolled my pinterest and found a super powerful quotes!
The quotes said : "Confidence is not "they will like me" but confidence is feel good even they don't!"
All of the time, we always think if all people around us must like us. When there are some people who don't like us, we think much about it and feel so worthless. We lack our confidence because some people don't like us. What a shame. We waste our time thinking of them and forget we still have many people who like us. And confidence means you must deal with some of your haters. I know it's very impossible to make everyone like us. They have different taste, opinion, thought, decision etc, very hard to make all the difference becomes one. Still, if you get the decision after dealing with many difference, the decision isnt the best and there is no guarantee that all of them will agree with the decision. They just outvoted.
And, other quotes that save my self development is "Never pay attention what others think about you. Pay attention to what you think about you. Do you like you?"
That quote really punch me on the face. After all of though situation in college and work life, I think I am not really like myself. I always underestimate them even they can do more but I always think I can't. How ridiculous.
So now, I think to a different way. I pay more attention to myself. I careless what others people think about me, I careless to think more if they like me or not. I always ask myself when I doubt them, "Mel, do you really like you? They can't like you if you don't appreciate yourself!"
So, here I now, in these 2 days, I tried to applied those quotes to my daily life. The result is fantastic! Melisa is become worryless, careless, not thinking too much, more appreciate myself, more nice to myself and struggling to be the best without try to get anyone's recognition. Because, sky is doesn't tell if it's high, all people will know. Same like me, I don't to talk with speaker if I already do something better day by day. People will know with their own eyes.

So, any quotes that help you more improve day by day? Feel free to share in comment box. See u on the next post!

Home

Hi! Long time no post.
This time I want to share my thought about home.
Home?
Everybody has home that waiting for them to come back. Yes! Everybody has home even beggar that sleep on the street every night still has home.
So, what is home? Is it just a building with lil garden or fancy fence?

Here some definition about home that I found on Pinterest :

Home (n) The residence of an individual or family. A place of refuge. The place or person you want to return to over and over. when ever I'm with you, I'm home.

So, based on above definition about home, all of us know if home isn't just a building. Home can be place or person that we want to return. A place can be you secret garden or city that you love or coffee shop. A person can be your lover, your parent, your best friend or whoever that meant so much in your life.
Sometime a building that you lived in so long isn't your home. Sometime the person that being in relationship with you in a long time isn't your home. Sometime, people that hate you or live in miles away is your home. Because every people has different opinion about their own home.

For me, home is jogja, my parent, my dogs, my siblings and my bestfriends. Whenever I see all of them, I feel safe like I already arrived at home. But, I still looking for another home. Home to settle down for the rest of my life. Home that become my first choice when I'm in problem, when life give me shit, I know, I must back to that 'home'. Until now, I'm still looking for that home. Sometimes I feel like hiraeth. You know what is hiraeth?

Hiraeth (n) A homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, a home which maybe never was; the nostalgia; the yearning; the grief for the lost places of your past.

I ever had 'home' when in college. But, that 'home' is broke and leave me when there is a heavy rain, thunderstorm and tornado. So, I tried hard to forgot that home. I am not sure if I'm successful to forget if I ever lived in that home for some months.

I'm still on adventure to looking for that home. To looking for someone that when I see him on the eyes, I know I will said "Thank's God, finally I'm home."

So, what's home for you? Tell me in comment box! :)
