I
was talking about knowing things to do but do not really want to do it in fact.
I kind of promise that I will continue to talk about it, and It’s a bit sad knowing that I posted that on
March 3 2016, and I am now just typing to continue my writes
Ups!
So long, in fact that’s too long for a write up. Sorry, I was just too busy on
the work and (again. Sorry!) I was just too lazy. Aha!!
COMFORT,
was one topic that I brought up as a cause why people don’t really do what they
already knew they have to do. We are too afraid or too comfortable to leave our
comfort zone. Change is good, but frankly speaking, its scary as well, too much worries
The
second thing is GOAL. What about it?
I
took a Mandarin class couple years back, it was just because in the city like
Surabaya with huge Chinese community, ability of speaking Mandarin is a plus in
person qualification. Its interesting , while in my daily work, speaking
Mandarin is not needed at all, Mandarin proficiency is not much needed in the
field I am into. So, long story short, I went through the course in full spirit
in the first week, but when dealing with the difficulty of writing Mandarin
letters (Chinese Pin Yin), I gave up.
Why?
Because I do not have a clear goal of doing this thing. Clear goal or target is an energy we need to fight when dealing with struggles / barrier or obstacles. I could not find the
important points of speaking Mandarin incorporated it to my
daily work. I can only speak little bit in Mandarin just because of growing up in Chinese family. Well, to some people to sacrifice their time to learn something new
is good, but to me in this kind of thing, especially in learning Mandarin,
aaah, I just don’t like it. AHA!
It
leads me to the third thing I’m gonna talk about, PREFERENCE
I
love to read and sing. Reading and singing are never boring to me, its always
bring joy and cheerfulness. Find things you like, and get into it. By having it
we can go on and on joyfully. I do not have to think whether or not they will
be useful in work or daily life, I just like it, I love it.
We
know we have to do things but do not want to do it well. Check those three
items : COMFORT, GOAL, PREFERENCE
What
about living a healthy life, go on a diet, do exercise? Those are all must do
things. Get out of our comfort zone? Aaaah, big NO, fighting a battle of laziness,
aaah no no no (Hey, this has already been my constant battle hahaaaa). We don’t want to loose the battle (of course), but how many time we fail, we know how the guilty feeling will ruin us. But the show
must go on, life must be lived healthy and well
I
make a peace of myself. I accept my self the way I am and forever thankful of this curvy body GOD has entrusted to me. I do what I like to do in align that
with a healthy living style. I do walking, I eat what I like but I limit it, I
sing and never stop practicing to strengthen my diaphragm muscle. I do it in a
pleasant way, and I go on
