Don't ask what the world can do for you. Instead, ask what you can do for the world!
Everything you do in life is a chain reaction. What you do definitely comes back to get you. So if you sit around pointlessly all day, how can you expect good things to come to you?
   Get out and do something that is good. it may take a while, but it'll come back to you. Sometimes its in material form, but most of the time the universe repays you with the feeling that you've done something worthwhile.
  But why do some people just hang around waiting for their life to end? Imagine how regretful you'll feel at the last minute when you realized that your precious life was wasted, just like that, and knowing that others will probably make the same mistake you did.
  That's the whole reason I'm writing this blog. I know what I've done will come back to get me one day. :) 

Believing is Achieving

Seeing is believing...what's with that quote?

You can't see air, yet you believe it is there. Well, you say that's because there's proof.

You can't see love, yet you know it is there. Why? 

The blind can't see, yet they know they are walking on solid ground. How is this happening?

According to belief, seeing is believing. But did you know that believing is achieving?

Once you start to FULLY believe in something, even if it is a theory, a feeling, or even a hunch, you have officially achieved a level of trust in that object. And remember that thing about believing in yourself?
 Believe in yourself, and you will at the very least achieve self confidence. Simple? That's just talking the talk. Walking the walk is way harder.(Unless you can't talk, then walking is easier) 

If you fully intend to believe in something, you have to let yourself be vulnerable. Put that titanium wall of ego down for a minute and just BELIEVE that what you are doing is right. See if that helps.

BItterSweet

You know how everybody always says that?

Lately I've been feeling BitterSweet as well. When I think about graduating and leaving my school, the bitter part is that--I'm leaving! The sweet part is all the great memories and fun we have had together in these past 6 years. We're still making the most of our time together at school!

Today I had an awareness on how to stop this bittersweet feeling from overwhelming you. Embrace the bitter, focus on the sweet. Wouldn't that be much easier? :)

Face yourself

People who are afraid of being punished have Mastigophobia.

People who are afraid of change have Metathesiophobia

People who are afraid of bacteria have Bacteriophobia.

How about the people who are afraid to be themselves? 

Selfphobia?

Well, if you are afraid of being yourself, aren't you scared all the time? Or are you just an outer shell, with no essence at all. That's  called a zombie. Scary, isn't it?

Facing yourself is basically something no one else can do but...you! Sometimes it seems so much easier to lay the blame on others, but don't you realize if it's YOUR fault, you have the ability to change it? If it is someone else's fault, you can only wait and see what happens. So take the courage to be you, the imperfect one you have been and will always be! There's nothing wrong with that. Nobody is perfect. 

You are the only one YOU. :)

 

The Movie of Life

If  your life was a movie, what would it be like? Would it be a happy ending, action-packed, humorous or just plain boring? If my life was a movie, it would definitely have one or more morals for the audience to learn. Comment and tell everyone what your movie of life would be like.

Being right vs. Doing what's right

Most people would answer that they would choose DOING WHAT'S RIGHT in a heartbeat. But being right and doing what's right is one of the hardest choices and lessons to learn.
   Being right is your ego. Doing what's right is doing what your heart tells you to do. But often, doing what's right may be risking the fact that you will be wrong in others eyes.
For a very simple example, your teacher asks you a question. And then you think the answer is A, but it might be wrong. SO you can just keep quiet and not say anything....you're not wrong that way. OR you can tell the teacher your answer, and although oyu might be wrong, you'll still be happy you did it...or regret it your whole life. It's just up to you, but chances are you'll forget it when you get up the next day. Life is too short to spend too much time debating over this.
  But usually this comes to a deeper level of things, not just answers in school. Another example is if all your friends think doing charity is BORING but you find that doing it makes you (and others) happy. Will you continue doing charity and be looked down at by your friends but know this is your life purpose, OR just stay in the shadows and watch those happy people working away for a good cause....but feel bad even if your friends still like you? Hmm. You choose.
