(English) :  Spending too much time on social media can be detrimental to your health, but using social media to announce your goals can actually make them happen. A  study found that telling people about your aim – especially when it’s easily measurable, like losing weight, giving up smoking or lowering your blood pressure – and what you’re doing about it, significantly improves your chance of succeeding. The trick is to stay accountable and keep people updated on your progress.

简体中文:在社交媒体上花费太多时间可能会损害您的健康,但使用社交媒体宣布您的目标实际上可以实现这些目标。 一项研究发现,告诉人们您的目标(尤其是当目标很容易衡量时,例如减肥、戒烟或降低血压)以及您正在采取的措施,可以显着提高您成功的机会。 诀窍是保持责任心并让人们了解你的进展。

(French) : Passer trop de temps sur les réseaux sociaux peut nuire à votre santé, mais utiliser les réseaux sociaux pour annoncer vos objectifs peut en fait les concrétiser.  Une étude a révélé que le fait de parler aux gens de votre objectif (en particulier lorsqu'il est facilement mesurable, comme perdre du poids, arrêter de fumer ou faire baisser votre tension artérielle) et de ce que vous faites pour y parvenir, améliore considérablement vos chances de réussite.  L'astuce consiste à rester responsable et à tenir les gens informés de vos progrès.

[Bahasa Melayu] : Menghabiskan terlalu banyak masa di media sosial boleh memudaratkan kesihatan anda, tetapi menggunakan media sosial untuk mengumumkan matlamat anda sebenarnya boleh merealisasikannya.  Satu  kajian mendapati bahawa memberitahu orang ramai tentang matlamat anda – terutamanya apabila ia mudah diukur, seperti menurunkan berat badan, berhenti merokok atau menurunkan tekanan darah anda – dan perkara yang anda lakukan mengenainya, meningkatkan peluang anda untuk berjaya dengan ketara.  Caranya ialah untuk kekal bertanggungjawab dan memastikan orang ramai mengetahui perkembangan anda.

日本語 : ソーシャル メディアに時間を費やしすぎると健康に悪影響を与える可能性がありますが、ソーシャル メディアを使用して目標を宣言すると、実際に目標を達成できる可能性があります。 ある研究によると、自分の目標(特に体重を減らす、禁煙する、血圧を下げるなど、簡単に測定できる場合)とそのために何をしているかを人々に伝えると、成功の可能性が大幅に高まることがわかりました。 秘訣は、責任を持ち続け、人々にあなたの進捗状況を常に知らせ続けることです。


한국어 : 소셜 미디어에 너무 많은 시간을 보내는 것은 건강에 해로울 수 있지만 소셜 미디어를 사용하여 목표를 알리는 것은 실제로 그것을 실현할 수 있습니다. 한 연구에 따르면 체중 감량, 금연, 혈압 강하와 같이 쉽게 측정할 수 있는 목표와 이를 위해 무엇을 하고 있는지 사람들에게 알리면 성공 가능성이 크게 높아집니다. 트릭은 책임을 유지하고 사람들에게 진행 상황을 업데이트하는 것입니다.

"We Run Singapore 🇸🇬"   here 🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️ ( in WE RUN ASIA SERIES)

Why we run? 

"Because it unites people, it kind of challenges me, I can't imagine doing anything else, to give back to someone  else what running has given to me, because I want to be faster than I was yesterday , I feel alive,  we're good at expressing then go grab us, because it's given me new meaning and motivation in life, why I run? to empower myself and to empower others."

👟 MOUNT FABER  PARK 🌳 is a hill about 94 metres (308 ft) in height, located in the town of Bukit Merah in the Central Region of Singapore. It overlooks the Telok Blangah area, and the western parts of the Central Area.

 👟 FOREST WALK - TELOK BLANGAH HILL PARK 🌳

 👟 UPPER PEIRCE RESERVOIR PARK 🌳 is a serene and tranquil park nestled just next to the Upper Peirce Reservoir.

 👟 LOWER PEIRCE TRAIL - LOWER PEIRCE RESERVOIR, 🌳 is Singapore's second-oldest reservoir, was built by impounding the upper reaches of the Kallang River and was commissioned in 1912. The forest that lines its banks is considered a mature secondary rainforest and is still dotted with numerous rubber trees and oil palms – visible reminders of a past when vast areas of Singapore were covered with plantations.

Visit the Lower Peirce Trail running through the forest and along the edge of this reservoir. Along this charming 900-metre boardwalk, you’ll be greeted with captivating views of regenerating secondary forests that line the reservoir as well as a variety of flora and fauna.

The Lower Peirce Reservoir, formerly known as the Kallang River Reservoir, is Singapore's second reservoir and was planned as an extension of the first reservoir (MacRitchie Reservoir) to meet the increasing demand for the supply of water in Singapore. The Municipal Commission proposed its construction in July 1902 and the Westminster Construction Company of London was awarded the contract in March 1907. The reservoir was completed in 1910, at a cost of 967,641 Straits dollars, by damming the upper reaches of the Kallang River and was officially opened on 26 March 1912. Ten years later, the reservoir was renamed the Peirce Reservoir in recognition of Robert Peirce, who was the Municipal Engineer of Singapore from 1901 to 1916. It only acquired its current name in 1975, after the Upper Peirce Reservoir was built.

Help protect this precious patch of forest and its inhabitants by staying on the boardwalks. Straying off the boardwalks will not only disturb the native flora and fauna but also degrade and eventually fragment the sensitive habitat. On your journey of discovery, remember some simple tips to help make park visits enjoyable for everyone.

Specific Do’s & Don’ts: 

1. No pets allowed in the nature reserve and on the boardwalks.

2. No feeding of monkeys and other wild animals. 



Why I walk 🚶‍♂️ here

Have you ever heard the saying by Hippocrates, "Walking is a man's best medicine?"

Singapore River Walk : The 2.5km river walk takes approximately 50 minutes with frequent pauses to soak in the views. You start the river walk from Raffles Place MRT (Exit G) along Bonham Street. Turning right towards the Fullerton Hotel, you then pass the bronze sculpture scene, River Merchants.The seated European statue is Alexander Laurie Johnston; he was one of the earliest traders, whose “go-down” was at this very spot in 1820. The declaring of Singapore as a tax-free port, unique in Asia, kick-started commerce with junks and lighters arriving to trade silk, porcelain, coffee and opium. The shipping trade was especially intense in December; that’s when Chinese ships arrived on the monsoon wind, staying until the wind changed the following June.  Continue walking here .....
