I’m a tracer

More than 10 years ago when we shared media content through usb flash cards I got a short video where local guys vaulting over obstacles in city’s town. “What is it?” I asked? “How does it call?”. I was so impressed but nobody wasn’t shared my joy and actually It didn’t matter for me at that time I just started. It calls “Parkour” and I was a “Tracer”

After some times I and my friends Viktor and Pavel created a team “Free Tracers” and we did a parkour more than 3 years. We were like a family and I learned a lot of things which help me nowadays.

– Overcome obstacles. It doesn’t matter what kind of obstacles they are, actually it can be mental one. You must try to achieve your finish line sometimes even you feel pain and complexity. Your team helps you in difficult moments.

– Unity. When a member of your team learn something new, you always have to support him or her and try to help. Member’s joy is happy for whole team

My parkour journey is a huge part of my life and I become very happy person when remember those days.

Free Tracers, dream team, forever!

Have a good day

Work life balance

I’m really interested in work life balance topic. Nowadays I try to make ideal day balanced between difference sides of my life. Maybe in future I’ll write a book and you’ll read my conclusions about that will you? 😀

Once I watched TED talk conference where Nigel Marsh said a brilliant phrase: “We work long, hard hours to enable our self to buy things we don’t need to impress people we don’t like”. Read this conversation again more properly. I’m totally agree with Marsh and I think it’s a huge problem of our society.

Joshua Fields Millburn & Ryan Nicodemus from theminimalists.com said: “Collect moments, not things”. It’s my the most favorite quote. Collect moments guys, not things because the opposite never works!

Have a good day!

First job experience

How many job positions did you have? What was the first one? What the best time to start earn money? Before I started to work as a software engineer I had quite huge experience in many difference spheres

I started to earn pocket money since childhood selling movies to my acquaintances because I liked films very much.

In college time I started to work in local mall as shop assistant. Guess what I had to promote? It was diapers 😀 Yes, that’s right, it was very funny and I had a blue uniform. Everyone in those shop calls me “huggies” 🙂

Also I gave chocolates in early spring on the street at university areas because we promoted one delicious brand! Those time was very sweet but hard because hungry students 😛 Yep, I had an uniform too and it was purple! Guess what chocolate it was?

Next one was not really interesting for me, because we had to delivered advertisement envelopes to houses in early weekend mornings. I’m sure if I rang your apartment’s doorbell in sleep time, you probably will be sooo angry

About half a year before and after college education lessons I promoted newspapers in city’s town.

Once I just had to scan documents

Actually I worked as a photographer on different events.

Make a long story short every job positions bring to me a huge life experience and I very glad to try all of that staff because… because it was happy time and I understood what money is and how I can keep and manage it.

Have a good day
