About This Blog

Life Optimizer is about living your life to the fullest. I believe many people (me included) live below their maximum potential. While they do achieve things in life, there are still many more they can achieve. The problem here is they do not optimize their life. There are aspects of their life which can be made better and more effective than they are now.

I got the idea about life optimization from my background in computer science. In computer science, people always try to optimize the computer’s resources. Whether it is about the time required to complete a task or about the memory space needed, people always try to achieve better and better results. Even minor inefficiency will be the subject of intensive research. In short, they always try to optimize everything.

I believe the same idea can also be applied to life. Of course, this is a never-ending journey. But through this journey, by optimizing our life along the way, I am sure we can live our life to the max.

About Me

Donald Latumahina

My name is Donald Latumahina and I am an avid learner who have deep passion in information technology (IT) and personal development.

Since 1994 when I got my first computer, I have already “fallen in love” with computers. IT gives me huge opportunities to learn new thing after new thing which is very exciting for me. On the other hand, I also like organizational activities such as student body. Through these activities I can develop skills which I won’t get in the class such as management and interpersonal skill.

I believe that every person has huge potential which is commonly “underdeveloped”, and because of that, I am also very interested in personal development. Unleashing the full potential of me and others has become my ultimate goal.

After finishing my master degree in Singapore, I now work as an IT lecturer in Indonesia.

  10. Pingback by 10 cosas a evitar para encontrar la felicidad en la vida — Vida En Orden

    [...] Donald Latumahina nos ofrece, en LifeOptimizer, 10 cosas a evitar para encontrar la felicidad en la vida. Lo traduzco y publico pues se trata de valores que se nos inculcan desde chicos (y estoy muy seguro de eso), pero que en el afán del mundo moderno y el consumismo, ignoramos. Los dejo con la traducción (libre, como siempre): Si quieres ser felíz (y estoy seguro de que todos lo deseamos), es esencial asegurarse de no caer en los escollos al recorrer el camino hacia la felicidad. Caer en los escollos te hará más difícil ser y mantenerte felíz en la vida. [...]
