Roots- Branches- the Top

Roots is where we started our journey of life..

but it does not necessarily meaning just that. Roots, can be a starting point of all the things we do.



and at the topmost of the tree is where we attain our achievement, the more branches we have to come across and defeat, the more obstacles along the way, or so to say, the more blunder we may have caused.

and therefore, we face a lot of choices.

each choices leading a way to a very different life.

at times, we have to pay for the choices made (risky and bumpy along the way).

but without making any choices, we have to pay at an even greater price. once made a choice, you are still on your way to achieving; not making one, you don't even stand a chance.

Hence, if we start from the top (that is, to know what you want from the start/ to know your goal).


then after, we choose where we should start (what we need in order to achieve what we want/ skills we need to equip/ personality flaws we need to modify). with a clear sight of what you want to achieve at the top, we won't be misled by the many branches that stand between you and your final destination (goal). and this, determines ones personal growth.

Chosen Quotes to Share with (FOURTEEN)

Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well.

-Josh Billings

------------

people sometimes lose sight of why they are doing something. Ask yourself, is this important to me? Does it makes me happy? is this what i am looking for? is this taking me a step closer to my bigger goal/ ultimate goal?

sometimes we are too immersed in the struggle to get the good cards, or taking all too seriously about whether the good cards are in hand, that we overlook the more important part of getting to know yourself well enough to play your role well. the good cards here, meaning having everything blissfully good on your side, which helps you reach your goal taking the easier path.

having good cards in hand is a plus, but do you use them well? some people comes from rich and strong background, but how did they turn out to be? they did not play their cards well. On the other hand, some people from a background not as strong who develop his/her interests/talents well, is on their way to a successful/ meaningful life.

Visualise

-----------------------------

picture a scene, where you wish it to take place and who's in it... or picture yourself finally achieve your goal.. let it be the dream girl u like, the job u have always wanted or whatever~

athletes do it all the time - they picture themselves winning and see what they have to do to make that happen.

try it, it sounds ridiculous that it just might work. *

to share the Art of Learning

Learning... we never stop learning ever since we came in contact with this wide world. The world is constantly on the move and everything changes rapidly from time to time and so it is likely that what you know in the present will change in due time... so we have to update ourselves every now and then.

How to make learning easier? well... for one, you have to know how to balance up the stress you are facing every day, by emotional healing. Try to improve your emotions and relief stress by finding the best way for you. Every individual varies in their choices of demounting stress levels. May it be music, outdoor activities, talking to people and so on. We always learn best when we are relaxes, interested and motivated. when you are relaxed, it makes your brain easier to absorb new informations and knowledge and will be more likely to stay put for a long period of time.

Then, it is how you organise the information you received and turn them into valuable assets. that is, your knowledge. We can learn something from everything. Everything that we experience will at least gives us an idea or values to learn from. Aware of your surroundings and what is happening around you, and observe. You'll be surprised to see how much you can learn around you. Even from a small gesture from a stranger might give you an idea for your learning or work.

And of course... while you are learning, you have to understand what strengths and weaknesses do you have. Self awareness plays quite an important part in the learning process. One you realised what your strengths are, put them to good use. make them skills to help you succeed in life. Knowing what you are capable of is vital in the process of learning and achieving goals. and while you are at it, applying skills you learned in different areas of life and make the skills an asset of yours.
