Madness

I was looking for a mood setting to prepare my pre-course homework for the next 2 days Manager's forum. The pre-course work require us to write about our leadership journey from pre-career up to career life. As usual...to get that mood and recall on my journey and how I handle my work in term of leadership, I need to get some inspiring note to read. I found this in my archive...I read and I ponder...then I get my mind in the right mood to write about that journey of life....

It is madness…
To hate all roses
Because you got scratched with one thorn
To give up on your dreams
Because one didn’t come true…
To lose faith in prayers
Because one was not answered…
To give up on your efforts
Because one of them failed…
To condemn all your friends
Because one betrayed you…
Not to believe in love
Because someone was unfaithful or didn’t love you back…
To throw away all your chances to be happy
Because you did not succeed on the first attempt

I hope that as you go on your way
You don’t give into madness
Remembering always…
Another chance may come up
Another friend
A new love
A renewed strength
Be persistent
Look for happiness in every day
The sure path to failure is to give up!
It is often through failure that future success come- KEEP TRYING!
God bless you.

Will see what new tips I could learn from Leadership in that forum. Will be away from offce and home again...It is funny that this month I spend 2/3 of my time in hotel rather than at office and home.

Need to pack my suit case...

Hi Anggerek Merah,

I go through that too at times. Just work around it.

I have had the experience that I just came back from London on a Friday, too tired to unpack only to get a phone call that I had to be back in London by Monday..imagine! Flew back with same suitcase of clothes unpacked! Ha ha.

cikdinz said...

heheheee... sibuk staying in the hotel je....

leadership tu subjective. kadang-kadang tak perasan pun kita dah jadi leader..

Kak Ruby,

I was thinking, it is better to have the suit case ready all the time and load into the car boot....hehehe.

Cikdinz,

yes...leadership in our own right..but the company wants us to achieve certain quality of leadership to take the company to greater height...tu lah kena dihantar ke forum.

Pakpayne,

hehehe...yes...I have to drink more lemonade.

Go go go Pak payne...go go go myKUE...ni tengah practice jadi cheer leader for football match remotely.

HCI said...

He he, tu la, masa dok UK kata slow, ni kata fast pula.

Whatever it is AM, just savor the moment, the time. You can't be truly happy when there are too many if and but and when and etc etc

Hello AM,

Eh masih kat forum ke? Rindu juga..he he! I agree with HAS, when there's too much on the plate we don't have moments to smell the roses. I have slowed down a bit recetly and I have renewed joy in my life. Come back soon.

anggerik merah said...

Has,

hehehe...yes tu lah kadang-kadang tak pernah bersyukur dengan apa yang di lalui...

Actually the hectic life here,I felt loads of time and energy lost unnecessarily. Tengah dok pujuk he big one if I could rent a place near my office to observe if his is really drain my energy. But belum dapat approval lagi.

How was yr trip to Langkawi?
