One step at the time

YES, another step to achieve my new year resolution.

Not a six figure yet but it will be eventually. By then, I can cross the new year resolution.

Had the mid week PDT and it's pretty interesting guest speaker , one of them is Jack Daly (http://jackdaly.net/) . He mentioned that if you want to achieve any goal , the simplest step you can take is "PUT IT IN WRITING" . I found out this is so TRUE...... what I did write last year and I achieved it.

I guessed when you writing it , you kinda put some effort and commitment towards it! It gives you a direction on what you should do. He said the next step will be break into the small little action that you can measure on with specific deadlines.

Deadlines is a MAD key word in all corporate history , do you know WHY?

Without it , ppl won't have sense of urgency and just take their time. In the environment where all been measured by profit and cost , it just doesn't add up if you work without deadlines.

Imagine this happens :

You've been given 3months to finish the assignment , what most ppl will do ?
I bet you know the answer , waited for 2 1/2 month before started to look into it. How's inefficient ?
If you have only 1day to finish it , you'll definitely start it ASAP.

I always think that my life is my own corporation. I am running my own so-called "board of director" as to what I will decide in my life . I created my own sense of urgency and deadlines on achieving my goals.

Miss Him so Much

It has been two weeks since I came back from the holiday.

Life pretty hectic since then , workload is getting more and more by the day that including my catch-up work. Got to finish the work late all day. The impact : GF is not happy!!!

Adjusting the sleep at the first couple of day is hard , I think this is the very 1st time I had jetlag.

I guessed all of this are the downsize having a well-earned holiday.

Talkin' about the holiday. It has been a great one tho It could be better without spent half an hour in the emergency unit in the hospital 'coz the food poisoning. The other thing was the "A" Plan is not working out as I wanted before I left.It's kinda sad but I think it was a reality check for me to be a better man! I'll make it happen next time arround.

The one that I realized that I spent more time with my family this time than my previous holiday. It's kinda nice in a way! I played with my little nephew who I really MISS-ed dearly. The way he tried to speak and how he pretended crying so one of us can pick him up from the baby walker. I missed the way he laughed ....... very very....genuine. I took tons of his pictures.

Miss U little Ben!

Another day in the sauna

Hell man!

My branch's aircon was break down for 1week already, shitt ass! With the sweltering temperature in summer ,it's aint good idea to stay long time there.So?

I choose to do my ritual in casino than doing it in the branch. Hahaha,its cooler down here.

Today is my last day in the office before 3week holiday in indo. Jetting tomolo to merlion city and i'll be float arround in the airport like the terminal movie for 6hours.So my next post will be from there!

Adios!

2 Faces

Yeah , I can be two faces sometimes.

Pride? most likely that caused all this trouble!

Im at the point of no return!! Confused !! Was it my fault ? Was it scapegoat I can blame on?

God please help me! My left brain wanna do the right thing - my right brain wanna just decided something that changing my life!

WHICH one?

The law of relativity is kicking in! Or Should I use the law of objectivity?

DAMMM...............

New Year Resolution

Yes............another year to get my new year resolution.

I set myself with high standard on this year resolution, some ppl think it can be "TOO NAIVE " but I think it is " OPTIMISTIC".

Okay , Let me start then:

1. OBVIOUSLY ,the left behind '08 resolution, buying my 1st property regardless if my other half doesn't want it! Its my CHOICE.

2. Getting my bonus this financial year - It should be the FAT $$$ one !!

3.Aiming for another promotion by September or my boss giving a pay rise to say the least. I am aiming for six figure salary package by the end of the year. *AMEN - all my smart and hard work will lead there sooner than later*

4.Going for holiday with all of my family whether in Indo or some part of this continent.

5. Married?(*#&$*()&@^%^ in the balance - if everything sweet , they shall happen this year!

6. Oh...oh.... lastly , I will try to find my GOD - I'll find this is the hardest out of all . I found that you need a place to rest your soul , sometimes you find that money and love is not enough to be happy in your life. That what I found out a couple of time last year.

As a person , I will :
*. Be more receptive with the constructive suggestion and advise.

*. Be more SELF DRIVEN not rely on something or someone - I know what I want out of my life and I'll drive myself go to that finishing road.

*. Be more decisive - I'll make a decision by the same day with proper thinking obviously.

*. Be more caring with my family and friends - "YES YONG, you gotta call them regularly NOT when you need them" .

*. Be more engaged with the people around you - building up more networking day in day out.

One year ago........

3hours to the new year

I could see people said how great HE was .....
I chatted with the people who were real life witness on HIM.....
I listened to the touching story I never heard or knew before about HE changed their life....
I shook their hand who said sorry but grateful that HE lived his life to the fullest....

At the hours that changed my life for the better

Crowd started to leave to spend their 00.00 hours with their loved one....
Main road outside swarmed by party reveler...........
Car honking......
Trumpet singing..........
Firework blasted over the dark sky............

At the 2nd hours of new year

Took the bow at HIS glorious and smiling picture ,
The two gesture that hadn't shone through HIM in the past two years..........
I knew HE left us for the better in the upcoming year.........
I believed HE has changed a lot of our character and our approach toward life ahead......

For this I want to say I love you and miss you dearly.....

Thank for came by in my dream three time this year and kept teach me how to live the life to the fullest.

Hope you have a good rest "over there" !!!

Love you,



Your son

After all , I am not burning my cash for the DSLR gear!

Blog title ?(@*#(!*#*$*$)_!_

I think i have to change the title of this blog. It seems that I did my post from the place that no other blogger do it ; toilet @ casino and NOW accupunture clinic.

Yes , you heard it right.Accupunture clinic! My rolled ankle from the misery basketball night two week ago still hasnt fully recovered so time to call my 'accupunturist'-i dont know whether its the right word, into the action.

What I'm feeling now? Fully electrocuted with these needles hanging on my achillies and ankle. I think I posted the picture how it looked like before.

Said enough abt this torture!

Work? It getting quiet now,i think ppl going out for the holiday already.

Man, i really trully bored at work.I am just been lazy to do anything eventho pile of compliance need to be done. Festive season what do you expect , holiday mood.

Okay , I gotta go now ,my accupunturist came back already.He gonna start 2nd round of torture.lol ;p

Wish you a Merry xmas peps!

I hate you BUT I love you

Copy the image from Axioo website

It is so true about this image, sometime you have to see from different angle / perspective.

I guessed it shows "How do you perceive one on another in your life ? " - It's kinda the Half full and Half empty glass analogy.

I remembered once I hate my parent decision but looked it back through now. I can see how they actually loved my so much with that decision. Somehow , It took a while for young naive brain to get it!

"Open your mind with flow of ideas and perspective , you'll treasure the wisdom"

Start of the weekend

Sent the car to be fixed at kingsford.

Waiting time started at McD ''family resto'' - luckyly they got the free wifi with ''generous limit'' of 50mb, a very very rare thing in Sydney.Bloody crappy network here in oz , even worse than indo i supposed.

Enough saying how bad free wifi overhere.

It's pretty interesting to have breakie in McD in the morning.A cup of hot capucinno with one equal sugar and listening to 2days Fm.

I see ppl fight for the death to get the weekend paper provided to the extent the old folk in front of me run to the counter to grab it.Funny hey?

I see ppl kept lining for their hot breakie.Man , it never stop, a constant flow.Reminded me with the line in bakmi gajah mada in the sunday morning.

So? I got another 20mins to burn until my car is ready.

Dunno what to do? Finished all the quota and kick my ass off.
