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...

Random Rant: BF vs BFF

F.R.I.E.N.D VS B.O.Y.F.R.I.E.N.D Both of these words has ‘Friend’ in it, yet the meaning can be so far-fetched and different. Personally, friend is so much easy to handle than boyfriend. Justification? a) Friend will be always there since everyone can be made as your friend as long as you are willing to open your heart out and throw some jokes here and there and nod along. Basically what I do. b) Friend is someone whom you have fun with, share some stories, and have common of interest. Most of the time, you will have fun with your friends. Even in some times, maybe someone will throw some shades and bad things about you, just move on as there are plenty of friends out there that you will eventually find in match with you. c) Your expectation won’t be that high as compared to your boyfriend/lover/couple. Since they are your friends, if they did something annoying or some trivial mistakes, you can easily brush it off since who cares? You could always end up teasing your fri...

Enjoy life like a KID; Suck it like an ADULT

Recently, I had been watching a Cantonese Hong Kong drama about the girl having multiple personality disorder, which means she has different characters playing out in her life without her knowledge and awareness. One second, the crazy one will come out and ruin her normal life ; suddenly, another second one will be naively following some strangers into danger. The ‘main personality’ could not control her other ‘side personalities’ inside her body. Childish or Mature? Left or Right? Positive or Negative?            It had me thinking a lot how I talked in my previous post how people could be perceived as an extrovert and introvert at the same time, even with the same person looking on the same characteristics. This could downright display the notion that in fact every single one of us has different way of dealing something, depending on the situation faced in front of us.           In th...
