13th march 2009 ( choices)

During the previous year, i had been fickle minded about my goal and my focus. Because of this trait which lead me to achieving nothing. Even with careful planning, a fickle mind will not lead me to any destination.

I decided to put my effort on patience, focus and planning. It turn out pretty well.

However, even that is the case, i am still human. My flaw begin to mirror to myself as time passes. I beginning to become impatience. In my heart, i wanted to achieve thing in a faster and greater pace by taking on more thing that i can handle. I was tempted by the words such as "shorter time", "excuses" and "faster way".

My experience with these three word has not been a good one. In my logical mind i knew one principal which never fade in me. There is no shortcut, and there is no such thing as a faster way. Just as the bible wrote; "the pathway to hell is a high way, while the path to heaven is a narrow gate only few will find it"

Yes, in work there is always way to find shortcut. It takes hard work and experience for those people working longer before me to provide that shortcut to finish that task.In the end, there is no shortcut.

Only the devil will offer shortcut, and so far i had experience nothing but lies and emptiness in those so call short cut method. And yes, the devil is call "the father of all lies"

Only God offer a longer and painful path which lead to life.(i will not discuss about it here)


What does the above topic that i wrote link about topic regarding choices? Don't get me wrong, i haven't wrote out of the content yet. i still within it.

"There will be a time, when one must make a choice"

Let me repeat my principal which i had learned to reach a goal, it is patience, focus and planning.

However, if one is standing in the cross junction of choices where he need to give up certain thing in order to prioritize his goal. Questions such as these will appear in that person mind;

"which one must i give up?"
"i can't take on all this goal i wanted to achieve, as time, focus, attention and money are needed"
"if i take on all the goal that i wanted to achieve, possibility is the skill level of individual field is not enough for me to reach the next level as time is needed in term of trait and error."
"If i focus all my attention on achieving so less, what if i die tomorrow?"


Every stool need three poles to stand if two are remove, the stool cannot stand. If the question and the temptation to achieve more in less time will take away patience and focus, leaving only planning.

Remember where we are now, is the result of the choices we made in the past. Those thing in front of our eye is either an opportunity or a trap.

Both are learning experiences.(salesman love this sentence, if it from their mouth i take it as crap)

i made two choice for myself to chose

1. chose to achieve all the choices, but i need to only focus and complete one first before moving on to the next.
2.Give up certain thing to totally focus on one goal that is top priority.
