“ Schedule pressure and fatigue rob us of courage and creativity,,
That is exactly what I’ve experienced this past few months, haven’t got a spare time. Normally I have at least one day to catch up with friends but now with my mental schedule I hardly can do that unless my friend wants to join my "ride" than it's still possible to squeeze them for coffee or a bite.
Lately I don't even have time for a lunch break, so I had to bring lunch from home and eat it on my way.
By the time I'm home and want to list everything down, I'm already beat. So in the midst of my busyness I add another work which is finding a structure for everything to run properly and fall into its place.
With everything going on at the same time and each task compete to grab my attention I found the importance of wisdom is substantial.
Despite of the serious schedule pressure, I learn about priority, which one is urgent, which one is important but not urgent.
I learn the importance of relationship, how crucial it is to learn how to communicate well, how to treat other right.
I also learn that the bottom line of any business is BALANCE SHEET.
You might laugh at me now but the truth is numbers can say a whole lot about your business, mistakes you have made or you're about to make, moreover it speaks about who we really are aka CHARACTER.
And for that reason I took a short course study about accounting to make sure my "balance sheet" is right. In fact we spent our Saturday night learning MYOB, I guess that makes us an official geek...
As I adapt with some changes the way I perceive life has also changed for example I used to hold on tight to my motto in life, one of them is "Why work hard if you can work smart ?"
I used to compare my method of work with my sister's. I don't see some point of her working method that can't be changed with the way I do it. Although some of my ways are right but no matter how smart I think of something, work hard can't be replaced by anything. That if you want to succeed.
I learn a lot from my sister, she may not be as sophisticated as I am but through her simplicity you can see an eager and willing soul to work hard and make her dreams come true.
Her curiosity and intuition gives her insight that this is not enough, there must be a better way or a better source thus motivate her to seek more, and understand that there is a price to pay.
One can always learn from anything and that's including learning even from the dullest moment in life.
In my case it's my schedule now, I may not have time to over think it but I certainly have time to contemplate at least before I go to bed.
Don't miss a thing, learn as you go...
