Something always happens at the last moment. That's life's surprise. Get busy and get it done. Sort of exciting.
I blame myself for procrastination from time to time animated serious resolutions to change the situation. And today I see myself in serious trouble because of procrastination again. Then last minute philosophy brought me lots of troubles.
I avoid doing things that I doesn't like doing like everybody else. It's just reluctance. And to force myself to do that is very uncomfortable. I sometimes wonder why there are so many things that I don't and I feel excited about.
I know lots of tricks that can avoid procrastination and try to apply them. Sometimes, they worked. Unfortunately I l a c k the perseverance and consistency in applying them continuously. I am now reading Napoleon Hill and once again have a clear mind of my witnesses. Procrastination is definitely one of them. I hated procrastination, and I hate to do things I don't like. What the hell. Which one should I choose to dump I have not made my decision. You know, I defend myself often, that I sense sometimes. I just let things take care of themselves and it works as well.but this means are really trivial ones. They don't affect my future. The don't matter after all.
Once again, I returned to the topic to objective lifelong objectives. When the thing is of great importance to the objectives I absolutely should take care of them with discretion.
People are not comfortable being called a redundant person, but aren't you sometimes feel useless? I got such feelings from time to time when I cannot accomplish my goals - What the hell is this? Why cannot I break the chains to gallop freely and proudly? - Sorry. The blocks are there as I tried for quite a few times already.
In these times, I usually divert my attention and energy to other things. When I come back, the situation would probably become less stressful and I would come up with new solutions. But it's not always go like that. I also have experienced the impasse after intentional oblivion.
Right now, I suddenly find I had missed a big part of life - cost of living. I had harsh times though, but I always feel I could survive easily no matter how bad the future could be. Now, I change my view. You know what, people would not "buy" you when they themselves had a bad day. Certainly you can undergo those moments and turn the nay to yea, but the problem is that you have bear the cost of living now.
This brings about the topic of preparation for the future. "You should deposit a certain amount of your income for the uncertainties. " Everybody hears this a lot. But it is somehow a suggestion not easy to follow. We live in the "now" and we spend the "future" NOW- I mean the credit card, the credit loan.
People are in deep water, because they owe more than they own (ideally they should owe less than they own when they have strong credit) as the credit weakens. yeah, that's suffocating.
Relations are easier to build now. Of course I mean two persons of the opposite sexes. But it is not when looking more closely. One example: The match making industry is flourishing and people are turning to friends to introduce someone who might prove to be the right one.
I've got friends, single. They are lonely and become active in hunting for a partner. And I've got those friends too who are take great pride in match making. My girl, unfortunately, is enjoying this kind of activities. By now, she have tried at leat four times; The result, zero success rate.
I sometimes just wonder how contradictary this world displays itself (I would not quote the famous starting paragraph in 'Love of Two Cities' because I cannot remember exactly). The same goes on while we boast of such and such unprecedented progress. Technology has changed the world but it definitely has not changed the man itself. After all, the needs of a man is quite trackable. What happened is that people use new tactics to fulfil inborn desires.
Right. Just talk about love. Love is no longer that simple, but it is not complicated either.
People like talking about their jobs, even though they show apparent dissatisfaction about them (which unfortunately is a complaint coming out of most around me). So, I am confused: I don't know what is my dream job now.
A job means a lot; it requires your time, energy, and anxiety. Once you take a job that is not your type, the marriage seems disastrous. You become a negative influence though you show great enthusiasm when you pick up more distasteful aspects. I had friends who do this a lot around me. As one who has not entered the business world, I feel excited by their experience yet discouraged about my future choice.
Now I think it another way around. Yah, maybe what annoys one is not the job itself. It is the people around who make the job tasteless. Everywhere we see the RuneScape as people take their own stances and pressure on you. They bring their negative influence on you and dark your prospects on what you are doing; you become to understand how it could be that bad instead being rewarding.
P.s. I find that many inspiring books are about sales. The Greatest Salesman in the World and Napolean Hill have imposed great influence on me. And when it runs headlong into reality, nobody cares about your enthusiasm. They only care about how to make the enthusiasm fade away.
Time can be easily dispensed, so can money. I am experimenting with this and recording the process. Every little bit of time could be used if paid attention to them, and could also be squandered easily, especially when you are on the computer. For instance, I could have finished this journal in fifteen minutes but at the beginning I got distracted, drinking some water, viewing a video news, skimming others' pages.
I know it is of great importance to record my time and pick out the really effecient moment. But you know, I find recording the time spent could lead to more expenditure of precious time as I have to stop and recollect my thoughts. Maybe that's why this method was seldomly carried out by people around me. But I decided to continue with the experiment and find the root.
It became clear to me that the core of time management is goal-orientedness. Though time conscious, you can still waste time on trivial things that could be put off forever. List all the to-do's and finish the items one by one, then at the end of the day, you will find how much progress you have made. Do things in blocks.
These advices are everywhere, but seldom practiced.
The same goes with money. You can spend it everywhere, you know, buy this buy that or simply give it away. If I have a target, all the money will be gathered to take care of that target. Little becomes much and enough.
Take care of the money, the time....and the energy, after all these are the base for a promising future.
