Fake it really can make it when you are...

    

    Fake it really can make it when you are human being with perseverance, passion and pen to jot down what I am going to tell to inspire you. 😏

Okay, here's the point. If you really think I have some magic to help you fake your life through and through, then you must be first time knowing me - because of how BS a person I am.

    Fake it can definitely make it. But the problem is how long you are going to stay 'there' even you know your soul is not really 'there'. 

    Passion is not easy. Gary Vaynerchuk, Chairman of VaynerX/CEO of Vayner Media/5-times-Best-Selling-Author, once said: "Skill is cheap. Passion is priceless." If everyone CAN become doctor, this world wouldn't be having so many public demonstration about working more than 36 hours but paid with unreasonable low salary. If everyone WANTS to become stewardess, there would be 100% unemployment rate shot up during this pandemic era.

No excuse. Just result.


    So if you are in my age, just say YES to every opportunity. Even though you are in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or even 60s, don't find excuses to yourself to not accepting something presented in front of you. Our own former Prime Minister of Malaysia, Dr Mahathir can do it. Why can't we all? We don't need to be at the top of the world to be called 'successful'. Do you own thing and you would be successful in YOUR OWN FREAKING EYES!

    Fake it till you make it. But no one tells you what happens afterwards. After you make it, do not just let it past. Recall what had happened. Ask yourself: Do you enjoy the process? Are you satisfied that you have been learning something even if it is not easy? Do you feel satisfied for the results?

All these questions summed up help you to carve your path ahead. Remember: What you value the most is not necessarily what other people value too. So, go for anything that can or cannot help you in present. You might be surprise how it might help for your future. 


QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

from Two Steps From Heaven (幕后玩家)

"当你能为了赚钱而放下面子那叫懂事，当你能用钱买回面子那叫成功，

当你能用面子赚钱的时候，说明你已经是一个人物。"

"When you can make money and put down your ego/dignity it's called a sensible move; when you can use money to buy your dignity back, it's called a success; when you can use your face to make money, it means that you are already an ICON."

Mental Health 0.1: Are you an Impostor among Yourselves?

  Disclaimer: This post is not related to the current trending game: Among Us, at all. (how I wish it is…). Okay. Back to the topic:           “Man, you don’t DESERVE all the applause!” “C’mon you are not even THERE yet!” Another voice comes in: “Nah, you just get LUCKY only! Do you really think this is good ENOUGH?”           Sometimes, all these voices come from people around you, but most of the time it comes from the voices within yourself. If you feel that way after managing to finish a task or achieve something, I guess you get a little bit of impostor syndrome.           Imposter syndrome means the lack of affirmation of yourself after able to achieve something or complete a work by proven facts. You view your own success as being someone’s work. You view yourself of being lucky to be able to get a new job. You do not validate your o...

What's scarier than you do the same thing over and over but you are still doing it

  If you are born and raised from an Asian family, I am sure that 99.8% of you had been forced to attend some sorts of extra classes or advancement courses to “improve” ourselves while we were young (0.02% were probably crying their eyeballs out to get their getaway card). There is a Malay saying: “ Melentur buluh biarlah dari rebungnya .”, which means that learning in a tender younger age is the best way to cultivate and nourish skills! It’s especially applicable for Asian’s KIASU personality or more specifically Chinese people???           I was definitely not excluded. I was sent to swimming lesson for my mom stating that drowning was very possible in this world covered of around 71% water. Hence, my mom sent every one of us siblings to learn swimming in a very early ages. Other than that, art class and taekwondo class since I was in primary school were attended too.           Truthfully, I am not here to ...

Your Priority is not His Priority

There are 2 baskets on the table. You could only choose the contents inside one of the baskets. You can´t have both. One contains 1,000,000,000 US dollars cheque. One contains a Ticket to anywhere you want in this world in unlimited times. Which one would you choose ? It’s a 50/50 choices. Some would choose the million dollars, or some would choose the freedom to go anywhere (especially in this critically freedom-restricted timing). There’s nothing wrong choosing whichever because everyone has their own preference, hence priorities are different among each other.           Priorities are a ranking people tend to have or subconsciously decide on when facing a dilemma between both options that inevitably can’t be enjoyed together. When you have a different goal than your aspiring friend, you can’t be shameful to admit that you want to be a superhero but not an engineer that all your friends want to be. You just have different priorities. ...
