Adore her

 http://www.marieforleo.com

I have been watching the MarieTV on her youtube channel and let me just say, it has been such a pleasure and eye-opener. I never expected to be someone who listens to motivational speakers/ life guides but now I think it could really improve certain aspects of my life. Starting from the psychological understanding of situations and people right through to effective communication skills that could be of great benefit for the rest of my life really.

Many a times we can feel stagnant and there are ways to change that. By watching these motivational speakers on her channel has made me realise; just like Amy Poehler mentioned 'everybody is scared most of the time'. We are all the same, it is the way we handle, control our minds and actions that make the difference. Equipped with similar educational backgrounds, intelligence and abilities, people should really make the correct choices most of the time in life right? It seems not so in reality.

After all, it is all a mind game. Physicality sure has some of its effects but when the mind is all clear and ready to tackle the problems, it is only then we can reach to find the solutions.

My journey one step at a time

So my last presentation turned out to be a total disaster. Wish me the very best to get through this degree somehow!

Now I'm really looking forward to life after university, life where I control what to do, where to go and what to pursue ultimately. I know where I want to go and I am so excited to jump into the currents of this unexpected life. This is all I want to focus on at this moment.

After all, every end is a new beginning right?
This quote really struck a chord with my current situation
"New beginnings are often disguised by painful endings" - Lao Tzu

If this painful experience is what needs to get me moving then so be it.

As Frank Sinatra puts it in his song That's Life;
"Each time I find myself flat on my face,... I just pick myself up and get back in the race"

I thought I was fine until the quiet morning scared me to wake up and face the rest of the day.
