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...

Insecurity from nowhere

Recently I have been obsessed about this 2018 Thai TV-series. “Girl from nowhere” plots around a girl named Nanno, who transfers to different schools and exposes everyone’s dark secrets behind the facet of the 'innocent' education institution. Inspired by true story, this series really gives me all the feels and senses in brain! Nanno from Nowhere               To me, Nanno is the representation of our inner darkest side. According to  Bangkokpost , she is described as the daughter of Satan or the snake from the Garden of Eden who comes to Earth to give forbidden fruit to humans. In each episode, she shows up at different school to test and reveal  how evil humans can be .             When I was watching it, I was horrified and scared of the depiction of this character. Not the kind of standard horrifying scared scenes from the sudden appearance of ghost or bloodlust monster...

not Cool being Fool but acting Cool is Foolish

The most daunting question asked in interview is not these: “What is your strength?”, “What do you think you can contribute to the company?” or “What is your career aspiration?”. To me, the make-my-heart-stop-a-beat question is “Do you have any questions for us (the company)?”.             My inner thought is like: Wow, now you want me to ask you questions when this is an interview OF me? Most of the time, we think that job interviews are for us to show the best version of ourselves to fit the criteria and requirements of the job sets. No question asked. But little do we realize that this is not a full-on Q&A section for company to know you. It is an interactive conversation between 2 parties who want to get the best out of each other for the better.             People tend to have this misconception that only people who are fool and stupid ask questions, especially tho...
