A month has flown by just like that and it's February already.
How has January been treating you thus far?
Life has been smooth for me:-
A bad year has ended. Can't thank god enough for giving me the strength and wisdom to brave through all tides that it is now time for me to breed some success in the new year. (Hopefully.)
(:
I had Rocco to welcome the start of a new year.
I had savings enough to pamper myself a Prada & a Longchamp. Hopefully the friend manages to get what I want. Heh! Can't wait for it to come already while I'm self reminded while typing this~
Sounding like a bimbo already I know. =X
Life for me is pretty much being summed up & defined by work, boyfriend & family. A 'friends' category is kinda missing here but I feel so worn out everyday. Definitely gonna incorporate this category into my work life balance. (; It's not going to be easy for me with changes that will soon be implemented at work.
Changes that would affect my lifestyle indefinitely.
I was advised to be less negative & look at things in a less complex way and perhaps life would be much better.
Gave it some thought and found it so true.
Just because I've attained a degree doesn't make my caliber anywhere near the expectations I've set myself given that I still have so much more to learn and so much more to experience. Besides, what's a degree holder when anywhere on the streets of Singapore, you can easily close 2 eyes and pick one up.
Since young, Dad has cultivated this look-up-to-those-who-are-better-than-you attitude rather than be smug and compare yourself with those who have done worse. Simply because that way, I'll always be learning from the 'best' instead of maintaining status quo. As we all should know by now, there's always a mountain higher out there.
I guess subconsciously, I tend to compare myself to successful people I've met from all walks of life and question myself on what I have achieved thus far. Without realizing that time, capability and opportunities differ in each and every individual. As much as I want to achieve something great out of what I do, there is no quick formula or shortcut to climbing up the corporate ladder.
So as for now, I'm going to continue enjoying what I do, enjoying the company of awesome colleagues at work and learn as much as I can. I believe it'll not go wrong for me to take things slow, do what I ought to and is expected of me. Someday, somehow, I will see light at the end of the tunnel. All I need to do is to constantly remind myself to.... "Think positive." (Inspired by 'We Not Naughty') Hohoho~ ;D
I remember during one of the heart to heart talks with the King sometime in October last year, he shared that perhaps due to the comfort zone of my family background, my take, attitude and perspective at work seems a lil off the balance scale.
Bit by bit, as I take opinions and advices from loved ones and friends, I reflect overtime and try to change and adapt so as to be molded into a better person all for a better future.
One of the ways the King has suggested for me to stay hungry for sales, is to set myself goals.
Which, if you're a friend of mine in my facebook, you would have known my goals of late. =p
Not to forget, a lump of savings to be maintained still after achieving those goals for rainy days. (Very important!)
February is the Month of Confirmation for the Franklins.
Hope this transition would be a smooth one.
Meanwhile, I need to earn more more MORE money! So that I can contribute more to the Family, pamper myself more, and have more spare cash for investments.
钱生钱 = 更多钱!
HUAT AH!
Hahahaha! :D
Xoxo ♥,
