#65 - What do I want?

17.10.2010

Did some review on myself…I didn’t really go far from what I was 2 years ago, apart from the fact that I now own a car and is actively involved in badminton, yoga and hiking. I think I might have gone into the comfort zone for too long and now is the time for me to catch up with myself.

I always like the phrase “We must compete with our own selves, not with others. The greatest enemy lies within ourselves.”

It’s true. No one can help us when we couldn’t make ourselves to stop procrastinating or not daring enough to try. Failure is not having the courage to try. Life is short. I always say this, to encourage myself to venture into new horizon.

I am doubtful and a chicken when it comes to trying new things. Esp. when no one had taken the path before. Was being “bambooed” recently about not reading books, related to work. I had to agree on that. Time to do more reading and get engaged in deep self-enhancement again.

Urghh, first step is always hard, esp. when I haven’t really read for quite some time now. But to maintain it, might be an uphill task for me. Hmm, I would like to see if the 30 days period mentioned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari really works in order to cultivate a new habit.

Time is not on my side. Not an easy feat but… no pain no gain! Will pull through it.
