Dont Procrastinate!
Sunday, March 30, 2008
Yesterday Pastor Tan preached a powerful message which I feel it really applies to all of us and apply to me now also. He said, to get where you want to go in life, you must start where you are. All change begins with a decision and out of the decision, you must be dedicated to it. Out of dedication, you must be discipline. Woo. We need to defeat procrastination in our life.
There are 9 steps in overcoming procrastination:
1) Activate your planner - creat a to-do list.
2) Break large tasks- Focus on getting each small step on time
3) Create deadlines
4) Deal with Mess - Clutter kills productivity
5) Encourage yourself - Think Positively
6) Face your fears
7) Goals review
8) Hang on dont give up
9) Initiate now!
He shared further about savings. This is really important to all of us. He asked, if you were given the choice to take $1 million directly or to be under a master and let your 1 cents double each day. Many people would immediately choose the $1 million i believe cause we want to see the results now and dont have the patience to wait. If u had choose to let the 1 cents double each day, u will get more than $1 million with just a month! Isn't it awesome? Really inspire me that I got to save more money each month. haha.
Right now, I'm in the of making the decision for my University. SIM bridging course will commence this wed and end on June 4th. Just receive a letter from MOE saying that im being shrotlisted for an interview for BSc(edun). Just took a look at the structure and I was like gosh! 4 years long and the structure is madness cause have to learn about every subjects. The interview has been scheduled on this wed 210pm at MOE building. Was just thinking should I take half day leave and go ahead. Perhaps treat it as an experience? no harm going though cause even if they accept me, I can still choose other degrees but just that I would have more options to think about. Really got to seek God and pray that I will choose the right decision. Banking and Teaching is total 2 diff career paths so I must choose properly. Banking I have experience but teaching not really apart from teaching tuition only. Going for banking seems better for me now after I see the structure, haha. Perhaps I should just go for the interview and see how it goes? Still waiting for other good news from local uni too. Yeah. alright, off to do some stuffs now and then practise guitar and im off to my dreamland. Falling asleep even right now. Exhausted.
