The first quarter of this year was such a hard time for me. I was confused about work and life in general. I thought I was being left behind by everyone. I felt depressed and pressured. I thought of quitting my job and going some place else. I had to fix my messed-up life things and on the second quarter, I thought and planned how I should go on with my life. Everything fell into place on the third quarter. I went back to school, I made this blog and now, I have been working on my life plans. Everything is still a work in progress, but I am glad I know where to go, what to do and not to think about. The fourth quarter was basically dedicated to work and school and those efforts will also help me achieve my end goals.
It is always nice to bring the year to a close by reminiscing the lessons we have learned. The two things I value the most this year are PATIENCE and FOCUS.
I tend to be impatient when I really, really wish for something. When I want it, then I want it now. Please do not judge me, I am not a spoiled brat. I work (super extra) hard for things that I want but sometimes, things don't work and we just have to wait for the right time. I know now that things cannot happen as quickly as we want it.
As for focus, my boyfriend recently made me realize that I change my mind too quickly. I mentioned before that I want to try/do a lot of things. Sometimes, something "more" interesting happens while I am currently involved with another. I have the tendency to drop what I am doing so that I can try the new one. (Yes, I have attention span issues.) The boyfriend says that is never good for someone who wants to be productive. That when I continue to be like this, then I won't be able to accomplish anything. So now, I'm trying hard to finish things one at a time. Less stress, more productivity!
For 2012, I know that I will be learning more. Hopefully, what I got from this year's experiences will make me a better person next year and in the coming years of my life. How about you, what are your lessons for 2011?
I guess I also have attention span issues, but my temper is a lot more serious issue. :) 2011 has been so difficult for me, I wish I could erase the whole year. But I have to move on..
TumugonBurahinYes, my sister always say "Kapag may pinagdadaanan ka, dumaan ka lang. Wag ka magstay." Let's move forward with 2012 and hope that everything will be better. :) Happy New Year!
TumugonBurahin2011 was a mix of good and bad for me. I had a lot of opportunities, but there were also a lot of difficult trials along the way. I'm not yet sure where my life is headed to, but I guess I'll have let it flow and figure out where I want to be a few years from now.
TumugonBurahinAnyway, I hope you'll have a wonderful 2012. May you have more blessings this coming year. :)
I can relate to you. Baka we have the same problem. I have the tendency to "not be in the moment"
TumugonBurahinMy mind is always flying elsewhere, that's why I wrote a blog. To keep my thoughts organized.
