Dear Reader,
If you are working at a job or even for your own business, you would love the following piece here. It might be the best article you have ever read on this site rleungr.com or even the best article you have read in this year. Anyway, enough teasing around, let’s get into it.

I learnt this the hard way, that is, through not being able to reflect sooner. I was spending too much time doing things that could be done in smarter ways, in a more efficient manner. I was focusing on the wrong things, not having sight of the big picture.
So please, do not follow my mistakes. Reflect once in a while.
