Let's go kick some butt

This what I will do when I'm busy. Kick some butt out of the way! There's will be many obstacles and challenges along the way which will hinder our road to success. Or wherever we want to go, even to lunch!'
We just kick somebutt off the path.

I predict I won't be posting much or the next few weeks. I will be doing some research around and heavy reading most of the time. But this will definitely be worth the time and money.

wrong marriage!

Here's a short note about what I'm thinking after reaching home at 8pm.

"Gosh, today's stuff at work was really exciting. Stimulting and thought provoking. Not that I'm promoting just work till you are 50.But, you gotta love what you're doing if you decided that you wanna devote 8 hours a day doing it everyday. At least have the mindset of doing something that adds value to other people or simply to yourself. For example, an opportunity to grow our knowledge technically. Else, don't do it. It's like marrying somebody you don't love!"
"How come I don't get as many holidays as my Deutchland counterparts?"

Presentation skills training @infineon

Some fun stuff at work. This is one of the trainings on soft skills provided by my company. Personally, I think that's I'm grateful to have such opportunities to associate with such experienced trainers (Kusma and Sophea) who have shared so much knowledge in the span of 3 days. Besides, I also a few interesting people such as "Google" , Danny and others.

There are a few stuff that struck me during the course. One of it is regarding ourselves as a personal profit center. Like a business even at work. Hence, we need to project a good image and repoir among co-workers. And this can be achieve by investing in our communication and presentation skills which is a useful and essential skill in building a business.

Are you focusing on things that really matter?

If there's a skill that I want to develop and nurture, it will be the ability to focus. We hear about focus everyday, but do we really apply it effectively in our lives?

Before cracking the poor head more about this topic, try answering a few question privately.

1. Does your daily activity is focused on a certain goals in your life? Perhaps, why are you doing what are you doing today?

2.Are you reacting everyday instead? Does you activity is a response due to someone pushed your hot button?

3. Does your action/activities today will make a difference in your life tomorrow? Perhaps some value?

If question 1,2 &3 were answered in a No,Yes, No manner, maybe now is the time to sit down and think about what to focus in life. After what happened recently, I chose to sit down and rethink again.
