For the past few days, I never seem to be able to complete the things that I set out to do. Updating this blog is one good example. The easiest excuse is that there are just too many things to do. But hey, it is a matter of choice.
Today, despite the loads of exam papers that have come in, I decided to put aside some time to write. I am going to reflect on some things that I have read in the book with the above title.
We all know what the phrase alludes to.
If I were to ask myself this, "Where are am I now?", or "Have I arrived?" I wonder if I will be able to answer that immediately. How come there is the hesitation?
I do wish that sometimes I have a built-in GPS system...one that will navigate me directly towards the end point. So far, I have relied on my own internal compass, and thank god, I have managed to find my way through.
Maybe the more pertinent question should be, "Hey...where do I want to go next? How do I get THERE...and how will I know when I am THERE?
Quite often, the root cause of uncertainties come when we are not sure what "THERE" looks like. If we cannot visualise the destination, we will find ourselves constantly getting lost.
The next stage of "THERE" is slowly becoming clear. I have thought things through, and find that I want to be doing that job five years down the road. But before I uproot myself for that journey, I need to make sure that I am prepared for it.
