'click' the movie.
have u watched it?
as usual it was a sunday dvd night with the ppl. "Click" was the movie of the night. Pretty meaningful comedy:
Don't you wish your life's controllable by the remote? You could fast forward to the part you want and skip the unwanted part along the way.
Everyday we are occupied with so many things in our life we tend to neglect the most important element: family.
What's there left in this world if we actually keep working and working without treasuring what we already have? Yes, work is important. Important deadlines and career advancement and climbing up the corporate ladder. But if we just work our ass off without knowing what we really want in the end it would be meaningless. And sad.
I might sound contradictory here but hang on a second: I'm not discouraging hard work. I'm not encouraging just plain family and no work at all. There seems to be a balance in everything that we're involved in.
Work/Life Balance. Heard of this term? It's a simple term but how many of us can really achieve it? Have a think about it: 7 days in a week. How many of these are work days? 5? Do you work on Saturdays? Some people do. I do sometimes. Work/Life Balance doesn't mean having 3.5 days of work and 3.5 days of leisure. Could it be 5 days of work and 2 days of leisure? Could be. Some people need just 4 days of work and 3 days of leisure (in rare cases). What I tend to do is work really really hard on work days and relax as much as I can on weekends. Does it help? It does. In some way. Even though some times we think that the weekend's too short. Every Sunday night is a low night for working class: Monday's a slow start as always. But what I tend to do is have a target and go for it: Make Fridays your target! It might sound sad but hey at least it's a target and you'll work hard to achieve it. Well I do have long term targets ie climbing up the corp ladder for instance. It's really long term. Patience is the key maybe.
Just had a phone call with parents. They've been checking out this site very frequently and yeah it's always good to have interaction and express our own opinion about the life we're leading, be it good or bad.
Life is not all about making tons of money. It's mostly about happiness and having a sense of achievement for everything that we do.
Just take me for example: Friday's a short term target, you work hard and you get rewarded with two days (weekends) off; having a successful career is rather long term but you're slowly climbing.
Grow your wings and flap it before you fly. Don't just jump off the cliff. Not sounding philosophical here but a thousand miles does start from every little step.
We're still young here. Work hard. Grab the opportunity. Don't be afraid to fall along the way. Once you're all settled it's never too late to start your own family. When you've got 'the family' make it your number one priority. The rest takes care of itself naturally.
You'll live a happy man in the end.
So guys, work hard, party (relax) too. :P
