2013 Resolution

So, since i couldn't finish fulfilling all the resolution or goals i set last year, this year i'm going to set less, and they focus more on being a better me, and also a person who will still be happy without pleasing others. why i said that? i realized i have been pleasing others a lot all these years and i don't even know what i want after crying and quarreling and hating others for treating me badly. i'm very jealous that others could live so happily, but why not me?? searching answers everywhere everyday and from the examples i get around me, i know i didn't treat myself enough. so, it's time to love myself, put my needs to priority, and get to know myself more!

in 2013, i want to...
1. Find my passion and talent
2. Stay focus
3. Control anger and emotions
4. Learn how to sing properly (i really love singing, keeps me high!)
5. Watch sunrise at the beach
6. Read more self-help materials
7. Save money and do some investments
8. Do what I love, and don't do what i don't love
9. Stay classy and sassy
10. Act like a lady, think like a man
11. Talk less, listen more
12. When people walk away from you, let them go
13. Be happy, dance more!

not going to simply get anything for myself anymore and i think it's good to improve myself everyday. how had your first day of 2012 been? i hope it's a good year to you! gotta go sleep now as i still need to continue clearing old things. yes yes THROW ALL THE OLD THINGS and let the new ones in! :) Good night!

Start Learning to Be a Better Listener, maybe?

today's the second day of class. so, it's a Wednesday, and i have 2 classes to day. ahhh waking up at 11am really makes my head feels pain as i am lacking of sleep. the first class - Organizational Behavior was okay... just like any other subjects that i've taken before. but this class named Effective Listening really grab my interest. i love subjects like Interpersonal Communication, Effective Listening, and anything to do about your daily life and most importantly it reflects yourself. in other words to say, you're attending a class, but the class teaches you on how to be a better person in the future. free lessons for life hehe!
why do i say this class is interesting? hmm... 1 of the reason is because of the lecturer, another 1 is because you gotta practice what you learnt! it's funny when i knew that my first assignment is to submit a 7-day diary on my listening skill. i admit i'm not a good listener, sometimes ppl are even frustrated with my attitude. or i'm the one who feels frustrated because i don't wanna concern on others? nvm, i don't know either. hahaha. so in this class today, we all learnt that EFFECTIVE LISTENING is to listen carefully to main points and to understand the message quickly without being judgmental. the lecturer said a good listener will makes you earn a lot of friends. and i was like WOW... really? also, a good listener will be a very good and respected employer. hmm, all these make me even more interested to know how to be a good listener. probably when i learn how to be a good listener, this could totally change my life later? or to be wiser and complain less (oops, but yah, i kinda love to complain sometimes). hmm... does being a good listener really makes me a better person later? let's see the result after i did the 7-days diary. hopefully the experiment works :)
