Rules For Life

Hello friends,

I have a dream that one day I'll publish my own book that outlines a set of life's principle. I got this inspiration from Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules For Life. I like the idea of a book that is able to give a general guidance through life.

I'd like to write down my ideas here so that at least I have a sense of concrete plan of what I want to do. I'm planning to make it into 3 parts/sections. I'm still not sure whether it's going to be 3 separate books or just one book with 3 sections. But I want it to be in 3 sections because I believe that these 3 sections cover most of the aspect of our life. These sections are: Career experience, personal finance and life optimization.

Also, breaking my writings into these 3 sections will kinda give me a sense of structure to the book. At least I know which section to look for when I'm looking for specific reminder for myself based on my current situation in life.

Roughly speaking, the contents for those sections could be,

1. Career experience
• I want to explore all four quadrants of Robert Kiyosaki's source of income: Employee, self-employed, business and investor.
• Specifically speaking, I want to understand how to thrive in: Corporate organizational environment, startups and being a investor/trader.
2. Personal finance
• In this section I want to explore the management of finance living on both side: Living below your means and leading an extravagant lifestyle.
• The part I'm keen in exploring is how my philosophy of attaching value to anything changes with the financial environment I'm in.
3. Life optimization
• In this section, I hope to explore the idea of living life efficiently given the constraints in life. With everything in life is understood to be finite, how can I make the best out of whatever I have in the current time and what could be changed or improved if I were in a different circumstances. 
• At this point that I wish to tie the career experience part and personal finance part to create an idea of life's bubble. Everyone needs to have their own life's bubble where they decide themselves on thriving in that bubble through life's optimization.
4. Future section
• I'm going to leave a blank on this extra section because I'm sure that there are a lot more life's bubble that we could extend on. Some other aspects of life that works on more granular level such as hobbies, relationships, autobiography and etc. 

After reading many categories of books, I believe that there's always interesting things worth talking about. If I find happiness talking about them, I will surely be more than happy to write about them.

I'm just putting down all the ideas I have for now with hopes that this will guide me and remind myself to stick to what I have in mind.

Wish me luck friends!
