Blogs & Articles

This page gathers my writing essays and articles developed from ideas found in my notes, reading or some interesting information I capture in the internet and my journey.

What you’ll find here

  • Reflective essays
    Writing on wellness, work, systems, learning, and life transitions.

  • Idea synthesis
    Articles that connect multiple books, disciplines, or experiences into a single line of thought.

  • Practical reflections
    Not “how-to” content, but thinking that helps clarify why and how to act.

Some of these articles may also appear on Medium in adapted form.
This page serves as a curated archive — a home for the pieces I consider most meaningful.

How this page evolves

This is not a posting schedule.
It’s a growing collection.

Over time, this section may expand into:

  • themed essay series

  • deeper frameworks

  • long-form explorations that don’t belong in short posts

If you’re looking to understand how I think — start here.

Bangsa Enam Angka (The 6 Figure Nation)

Book Overview Title: Bangsa Enam Angka Author: Azraei Muhamad Category: Personal Finance Why I Picked This Book I wanted a practical guide to financial planning that speaks to the Malaysian context. Most personal finance books are written from Western perspectives with different economic realities. This book promised a clear roadmap to building wealth from zero—something I needed as I rethink my relationship with money and long-term security. (The ideas here still applicable outside of Malaysia and everywhere else). Core Ideas & Highlights 1. The Six-Step Framework to Financial Freedom The author breaks down wealth-building into six actionable steps: track expenses, create a budget, manage cash flow, save your first RM 1,000, build an emergency fund, and start investing . What I appreciate is how sequential this is—you can’t skip straight to investing if you haven’t mastered tracking your spending. It’s a ladder, not a buffet. 2. Four Pillars of Life: Knowledge, Action, Experience,...

The Almanack of Naval Ravikant

Book Overview Title: The Almanack of Naval Ravikant Author: Eric Jorgenson Category: Business & Entrepreneurship / Philosophy / Self-Development Why I Picked This Book: I kept seeing Naval’s tweets and podcast clips everywhere and one YouTuber I followed also suggested this book, and his ideas felt different from typical hustle-culture advice. I wanted to understand his philosophy on wealth and happiness from the source material, distilled into one place. I’m at a point where I understand how to make money tactically, but I needed a deeper framework for why wealth matters and how it fits into a meaningful life. Core Ideas & Highlights 1️. Wealth is Assets That Earn While You Sleep Wealth isn’t money or status, it’s ownership of things that generate value without your active involvement. Money is just a transfer mechanism, a way to trade time and wealth with others. Status is your position in social hierarchies, which is ultimately a zero-sum game. The goal isn’t to chase payche...

Enam Angka Menjelang Dua Puluh Lima (The 6 Figures by 25)

  Book Overview Title: Enam Angka Menjelang Dua Puluh Lima Author: Azraei Muhamad Category: Personal Finance Why I Picked This Book This is Azraei’s follow-up to Bangsa Enam Angka ( you can read my notes here ), and I wanted to see how he expanded on his financial framework. I’m at a stage where I’ve grasped the basics of budgeting and saving, but I need guidance on what comes next on how to actually grow wealth while staying grounded in values. The title promised a roadmap for reaching six figures by age 25, which felt both ambitious and practical. Well I am no longer 25 years old from the moment of my writing, but the guide can help others who are still early in their live to actually walk the author path. Core Ideas & Highlights 1. Asset Diversification as a Foundation The book emphasises spreading your wealth across Tabung Haji (TH), ASB, and physical gold for long-term stability. It’s not about chasing the highest returns—it’s about building a balanced portfolio that can w...
