FOCUS ON WHAT I WANT

So, after time and time, I finally know what I want in life, not clearly yet but kinda. The more I talk to new people from around the world, the more I understand about myself and know what I want and where I want to be in the future.

- I want to be successful.

What is success? Its the key to the happiness. And again, what is happiness? Its the key to peaceful, simply a mile when you think about yourself.

Well, trust me, even my 18 year old self would never think that I would be like these days.
- Living alone by myself? In the central of city? Crazy!
- Business traveling to different countries? Omg serious! For a person with that diploma? Are you out of your mind?
- English speaking daily more than mother-tounge language? Again, too much craziness here!

I know its nothing for a lot of people, but look at me and where i came from, where i started, you would be surprised!
- My parent divorced when I was very young, 5 year old. Growing up with grandparent and always feeling unhappiness and jealous to every single person on earth was not a great start.
- Feeling of inferiority controlled myself more than anything else. It made me hate myself so much that I thought I shouldn't be alive.
and a lot and a lot of bad things that i don't want to list down here.

BUT HERE I AM AND I DID IT! Step by step! SO! Don't give up! Life will teach you and help you! Wait wait wait, still remember, don't be full of yourself. Life is too short and too long at the same time, there are a lot of things will happen in the future! BE CAREFUL!


OK, lets focus on the main topic of this post! Questions to the key of success:
1. What do I want and where I want to live?
2. What is my weakness?
3. What I need to improve at myself?
4. How can I do it?


Lets do it:
1.
- I want to be better who I am right now. I want to be independent which mean I can do good at anything by myself, like relationship, work etc
- I want to move to live oversea, start at SEA first and then expand to USA or AUS


2.
LAZINESS
Self_doubt
Lack of confidence


3. Kill my weakness with these main things:
a/ Communication
b/ Relationship
c/ Knowledge
d/Concentration


4.
a/ Communication is the key to EVERYTHING! And the main pie is language - english! IMPROVE MY ENGLISH!
- Self-confidence is very important here. Feel free to talk/ write first! Don't care if I make some mistakes in spelling, writing, grammar etc because by the end of the day, if my listener understands what i mean -> PERFECT! If they don't? Repeat, body language, use your dictionary etc. (I have a friend who always makes fun of my english. She studied aboard so her english is perfect. When we went out and met foreigners, she said no one would understand my english cause my accent is so VIET. And it made me felt very bad, I didn't want to speak english when she was around, i felt ashamed at myself somehow. But lately i realized that WHO CARES about those details? I met so many colleagues / friends from India, Singapore and Malaysia, their accent is far away from perfection but people still respect. So don't focus on the weakness, focus on how to improve it)
- Build the vocabulary, specially informal english. Watch youtube or read news!

b/ Not love-relationship here. What i meant is relationship in everything: friend, family, work etc
- Start with small talk. Say "Hello", "What is your name?", "Nice to meet you" to everyone i meet. Dont be afraid, they will not laugh or bite me.
- Keep my promises. Don't let laziness beat me with "Oh let me see if I can make it to your party!" NO! We don't know what will happen there, maybe new job opportunity or new best friend?
- Make a list of my nice friends and important people in my life and say "hello" to them once for a quite. When my old friends asked me how I was doing, I felt happy so I should do it to another people as well.
- Remember, the older we get the less friend we make, so spray love lah
- Tricky one: people name. I feel really hard to remember that simple thing. Maybe i should note it down ? I don't know, still working in progress for this point. -> UPDATE?

c/ Knowledge is the helpful tool for point a and b. Without it, i will look like an idiot or blondie
- Read news and watch youtube more, please english channel only
- Limit smoking weed. Maybe before sleeping only!
- Self conscious about spending freetime with bullshit things. Ask myself: is it bullshit or nonsense? does it help improving myself? do people care if i talk about this news? NO? MOVE ON!

d/ Concentration is mystery here. Hmmm, make a list of most important things of the month and stick with it? I dont know, still working in progress -> UPDATE?


Ok ok. That's it for today. Now back to work!
Goodluck Syka.
