right on the spot!

I couldnt agree more.. this word has always been with me since I learned its meaning..

Your Happy Word is "Hope"

You refuse to give up on anyone, including yourself. You see the best in others. You think happiness should be shared. You spread your message of optimism as much as possible. You will keep believing when everyone else has stopped. You think good will always prevail in the end. You believe if we trusted each other more, the world would be a better place. All we need is a little hope.

seek and you shall find

Have you ever walked into your kitchen only to realize that you forgot what you wanted to do/take? It just happened to me just now. Sometimes it happens to my husband too. I just watch him as he walks out of the room and came back 5 seconds later and asked me sambil garu kepala, 'I nak ambik apa dah tadi?'

Such a weird phenomenon kan? how do you explain it? I'm sure there's some medical explaination. nak google tapi taktau nak type apa kat search.

Speaking of search, I am in the midst of searching for a job or a placement in any university nearby to further my studies. motivation dah kurang compared to last time (refer previous post). I guess the 72 Hour rule is now valid. If you want something, you must take action within 72 hours or you won't feel as strong about it as you did the first time. 

In addition to this event, I decided to check  facebook less frequent. Why?

I did an observation (yes, I have that much time). I can conclude that 8 out of 10 status updates has some negative ring to it. Statistically speaking, 80% of the time, people become either demotivated, depressed or deprived. However, this is only the descriptively speaking. I need to do a Factor Analysis to conclude further. But reading all those negative status really brings me down at times. Tak pasal² kan?

Well.. wish me luck in finding my path :) I told a friend once, it ain't easy living in a foreign country that doesn't speak English. I am now in the process of finding bricks to build my own road. For me to succeed, I need to build my own road and then only I can walk through it. It's not like UK, US or other English speaking countries. But hey it's okay. At least one day I will feel satisfied walking through the roads that I have build with my own two hands. And of course with the help of Allah, support and prayers of my husband, family and true friends, InshaAllah I will get through this :)

I remember my motto when I dilanda kebuntuan during my postgraduate studies. 'Seek and you shall find'. I kept on mumbling this phrase everyday out loud for weeks while thinking and tapping my pencil on the table and I finally crack the code for my statistical program. I will never forget that moment. I literally cried. That's why I believe in how powerful believing in things can be. And right now, I really need to believe in things.

its always easier

Easier said than done

We hear that alot. So much so that it becomes a fact. At times, I will think, Yes. Actually it is easier doing it rather than saying it. Kalau mulut tak banyak cakap sambil buat kerja, lama² kerja pun habis. Kalau cakap je lebih, tak buat kerja, memang takkan habis.

Other times I will think, betul la. Memang senang lagi cakap dari buat. Like the malay proverb, 'Berat mata yang memandang, berat lagi bahu yang memikul'. Or these days, 'Berat mata yang membaca FB status, berat lagi jari yang menaip status'

But in reality, some days you feel like a bird (singing I'm like a bird - Nelly Furtado as background) flying high in the sky following where the wind blows. Other days you are pinned to the ground. The question is.. What keeps you motivated? What makes you feel like Kate Middleton walking with 80 papparazis everywhere you go? (translation : having the confidence level like the next Duchess of London) What keeps your adrenaline pumping?

What drives you?

To answer this question, I actually took a test.. and this was my results. Check it out

You Are Driven By Self-Improvement

You believe that if you're too satisfied in your life, you're doing something wrong. You are always trying to better yourself, and that means putting in a lot of hard work. You want to be the best you can be, and you hardly ever rest. You are a type A person for sure. You are always trying to make your strengths more robust and your weaknesses disappear.

What Drives You?
