If you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you're right. If you like to win, but you think you can't, It is almost certain you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost. For out of the world we find, Success begins with a person's will. It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you are outclassed, you are. You've got to think high to rise. You've got to be sure of yourself Before you can ever win a prize.
Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man, but sooner or later the man who wins is the man who thinks he CAN!"
A motivational/inspirational quote which I've been exposed to for the past 3 weeks. I see it at least once everyday from Monday to Friday. Guess where? The place everyone goes to relieve themselves at least once a day. Actually, should think it's at least twice a day. That's more healthy. haha. Yes, the toilet. A very important plc in my office.
There's this particular cubicle (it has become my favourite cubicle. haaa, i would choose to enter that cubicle outta the other 2 if I have a choice. But if it's occupied, I won't specially wait to enter la.), which has this quote pasted at the back of the cubicle door. So when you enter that cubicle, close the door...you will be able to see it.
It's very meaningful don't you think? This quote brings about additional meaning to me as the exact same quote was given to me by my form teacher during sec school days. She's called Mrs Ngin. A very nice lady, very patient with us, very sincere and warm. =)
It can be applied to all facets of your life, whether you're a care-free student busy skipping lectures, a relaxed jobseeker, a packed-to-your-toe worker in need of sleep, a happy and mature student furthering her/his studies overseas, a troubled young fellow going through a quarter/mid-life crisis, a satisfied housekeeper making sure her family gets the best treatment when they get home, a retiree planning the next phase of her/his life...& the list goes on. Whatever it is, don't don't don't ever give up on yourself k. YOU rule your life. =)
Talking about my office. Everyone seems to be having motivational quotes around them. In front of them. Some examples that I remember..."Don't Quit!", "It's not the falling that matters, but the ability to stand up after the fall", "Persistence!"...haaa. erm. yaaa. that's a handful out of the many. I asked one of them b4, "I noticed you guys have lotsa motivational quotes". Haa, she was like..."yaa. without them, how to survive??" wah. sounds like their jobs aren't as breezy as it may look. The worst thing is getting things done. Small thing. Gotta seek approval...go up...then come down..then go up again. Now you know why things take a damn long time to execute.
My divison's relatively small, a total of 10 of us. So quite cosy. I like. haha. Ladies to Monsters ratio. Wah. It's actually 5:5. Haa. People are generally very nice, very optimistic. Not all, but most. They tend to laugh everything off, scoldings, irritations, any setbacks...scream it to us (divison-mates), and we all laugh together.
Stressful? Not yet. I'm not feeling the stress literally as yet, but works piling up. Starting with 1 project, to the current 3. But coping well =) God bless the presentation on Tuesday. *ahh* I'm kind of not used to the protocols around, the careful gestures which you have got to take note of. Who you talk to, what you say. My fren (a fellow rookie) was so shocked when I rejected my boss a lift. Wahahhaa. He was like, "wahh, you damn stylo. Impressed." No lah, if I could let him hitch, of course I would. I had my reasons. And I believe my boss understands. Ermm, mayb he just say so only. But alas, just do my job well! That's most impt. Who cares about the politics man. I just say what I feel. Haa, so one of these days, I may just get myself into deep shit. lols. God Bless mua. But I will take note.
Monday...I received a beep from a darling in Paris. I was like...OMGOMGOMG. lols. I was so exited when I actually saw her name appearing on my hp. Happy to see the words she sent. & Extremely elated to actually see & hear her on Friday! Great to know that you're safe and sound and settling down, BUT...better water parade every morning k? =( Still coughing quite badly. *sayangZ* I tried to stay awake. But failed. Think it's going to be hard to catch ya online...as my energy has been depleting at a fast pace lately. Haa, but I'll carry on trying k! My heart's with you. Hehe. AJA AJA!!
Oh & Tuesday...my parents returned! back from their China trip. It was awesome lo. Beautiful pictures taken!! So envious..... =( Nm, I shall save...looking forward to the 10-12th this month. woo. On the very same day, a very very thoughtful pal of mine made a trip to my place, & passed me a bag of stuffs...inside was 2 big packs of Milo sachets, 2 tins of Foxy sweets and a box of lemon stepsils. All were my Favourite. haa. i love lemon stepsils. & I eat them at all occasions, not only when I have a sore throat. My record's finishing the entire box in a day. haha. steady right? BUT, I din't have diarrhoea leh. My stomach's too powerful must be. Why Milo? Because I'm a milo-lover. But have been drinking lots of coffee lately at work (only have coffee machine that's why)...& pal was worried about my health from drinking too much coffee, so that's how Milo came about. Thanks my dear!! (:
& Wed...My baby's back!! My blue baby! =)) Missed it. Missed it so much. And god bless the posters are within. If not, a particular Miss P will kill me. Haa. But it's safe and sound, in shape. I will keep it in good condition & pass it to you soon k~ Finishing off with dinner @ Sakae!! - A craving of mine since the week before!
Fri...I met up 2 of my JC darlings. Ping & Eileen. Wahhaa. Had a fantabulous time as usual. We yekked so much, sang so much! (btw, I sang miwa's song leh! wahaha. If I remember it right...I've never sang it before in Ktv! I mean, solo sang it lah. lols. SEE, see how impt you are miwachan. haha.) Company was beyond description.
& Sat?? I woke up early to accompany my Mama for some retail therapy...which I kind of need as well? wahahhaa. She got what she wanted. So happy for her. But heartache for my dad's wallet. HAHA. But hubby pamper wife, that's the way what. hahaa. Followed by meetings with Cons & Wsc Gang separately. Time no enough. How I wish I will never feel tired. Because that night, I felt like I was dying. lol. Very shagged. Perhaps due to the lack of sleep throughout the weekdays.
& finally...the ultimate. Haha. Todayyyy!! Had tennis whacking session with the usual few~ But Dan, Ade & Andy couldn't make it as our dear Daniel has outfield...and Ade has already scheduled appt. with her parents. Andy? I dunno leh, is it soccer? haha. oops. So..who turned up? Namely..Elv, Jingsi, Guoxing & yours truly Mua! Liqi was unwell..so couldn't turn up =(. But nevertheless, we had alotta fun tdy!!! And I'm red lo! My face's red. We played from about...10.15am to 12.30pm...under the hot sun! wahhaa. thank god for the slight shelter, and cooling breeeeeeze. (thanks to bedok reservoir which is just beside). Din't know Elv used to learn mini-tennis in the past, and boy is she not bad! Hahaa, she's always all ready in position. which is good!! Haa. Tennis, followed by a little squash! & then...it's Food time!! It was awesome...the company...the exercise...the sweating. I realize it has been a long time since I've last sweat it out. And the feeling's great! More sessions to come!!~*
p.s. If you stare hard enough at your television set tonight at 8pm > Ch5, haha. You may see our dear Miss Wee on TV!! Woooo.

" You Can Do it!
If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you're right.
If you like to win, but you think you can't,
It is almost certain you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost.
For out of the world we find,
Success begins with a person's will.
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you are outclassed, you are.
You've got to think high to rise.
You've got to be sure of yourself
Before you can ever win a prize.
Life's battles don't always go to
the stronger or faster man,
but sooner or later the man who wins
is the man who thinks he CAN! "
