Staying Focused & Get Going

In my previous post, I was writing about how I'm feeling so super clueless especially right after busting my ass studying but yet, now I don't know how to get back into the groove.  Then shortly after that post, I did what I have scheduled to do, and that is to clean my room and get ready for gym and yay, I accomplished them!

 And to think I almost didn't go to the gym and feel like further vegging out in the library. Go figure.

If you're feeling like me at times, the best thing to do is to simply, do something and get going. The first step is always the hardest but do know that it will get easier and you will be thinking, why the hesitance.

But if we simply get going with no area of focus, the things that we have to do, seems like a huge burden or chore because we do not know what it will lead us to. Then, we will just give up and go back to our lifestyle of just wasting precious time away. And that focus has to be specific.

If I say, I want to earn more money, it's simply not going to inspire you and get you going. Knowing why you want to earn that extra money, for example to supplement the family income, to get the F1 tickets come September (I MUST watch it this year) and to clear personal debt.

It's not just pertaining to money, but life in general.

 When I was studying for exams, I didn't have any focus and I felt very upset with myself because I didn't know what I was doing this for. To simply pass doesn't seem inspiring enough. So I got down to what grades I really want and with this, whenever I felt like I am going through dejected feelings, I tell myself, I gotta do this, I want to get an A for this paper. That helped me to pull through, read through the notes multiple times and get it inside my head as much as I can. All because my focus is now clearer.

 Same thing as running my online shop. I'm not always inspired despite the endless 'hearts' on instagram and pinning on Pinterest, if I don't feel like it, it doesn't matter. But again, I must know what am I doing this for. I want to increase my emergency fund and supplement the family income and so on. And also, I want to increase my knowledge on paper crafting because I love making beautiful works and the thing to make my work stand out and get attention, is to become better and better at what I do.

 So what makes you going and what are your areas of focus? The best way to get around this, is to write down somewhere and read them before you get your day going in order to be productive.

 Good luck!

Being a Teacher isn't Easy

I work with teachers but I'm not a teacher. I actually work in the admin department and I like my job though sometimes it can be challenging especially when I feel swarmed by it. Or when my boss keeps calling me for work related stuffs especially when she is doing the approval for payment or vetting through. So, the headache. Anyway, I can honestly say most teachers are really nice though some are really driving me up the wall. That or they are just simply aint nice but then, it is also because of their personality. But as teachers, they are really dedicated. I also deal with parents and honestly, they can be demanding and very irritating and they are not scared of the higher authority in school. To them, they are being like that all because they care for their children but they are overbearing as if they don't let their children make mistakes and learn. Plus, whatever their children said, they believe every bit of their story though they are not there to see for themselves an...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...

All in A Day's Work

It's funny how people get all flustered when people talk about them like speculating how they may have a crush on someone and they felt hey, these people have no business with me whatsoever so why don't they just shut their gap. But then when they talk about some other people's business like oh, you two should be together, and how's the progress, why don't you see her as someone special, blah blah blah...it's like they have every right to do so. Reality check. If you can talk about others in that manner and in their face like be some frigging matchmaker, why are you being so defensive when others talk about you especially when you air them in facebook? Doesn't make sense to me. If you don't want people to be nosey in your affair, stop airing them over in cyberspace and also don't be that nosey bugger as well coz you obviously hate it when people do that to you. Oh well. Anyway, I was just thinking to myself that at times, while I'm usual...
