PENT UP EMOTIONS.
i guess. i have been sooooo wanting a break because of all these pent up emotions.
i need to get them out. i still cant breathe. i realised.
As much as i wanna force it out and go for some treatment to forget them.
its impossible.
cos i cant. i dont know how to.
dont assume anything in my blog.
its just general...
Let's talk about PRINCIPLES.
i have my own set of principles.
rules which i feel are essential if you want to succeed in life.
These rules were set up by myself, during my sec3 and sec4 years.
Mostly during my leadership journey.
i came to realise that as a leader, you need to have a set of principle you can abide by and you expect ppl under you to abide by. my rules are simple.
1. Punctuality.don be late for more then 15mins.
2. RESPECT.
3. do not EVER cross the line. (know your limits)
4. listen to what ppl have to say, and accept it.
5. learn how to empathize.
I'm no longer in a leadership position now, and hence may not show these principles vividly. but they are always, forever at the back of my head, reminding me who and what my dad has taught me to be.
i guess these points have also caused me to be 'bad' in others ppl's eyes.. Firstly, i lose respect very easily and quickly for ppl who are CONSISTENTLY LATE. my tolerance level is also quite low. haha. and i dare not open up to ppl of higher authority cos i might get to friendly and cross the line.
Everything has its pros and cons. am i not rite?
I speak for myself. (the way i view things) If i'm a leader, or anyone with influenctial power, i would be ashamed of myself if i can fulfil these rules. Afterall, they were set by me rite? haha.. And i of cos, would not expect my friends to respect me as much becos i cant even follow the rules i set.
Usually when you're given a status/power, ppl respect you like 10/10. then as days go by, they only remmeber the bad things you do, and they respect you 8/10, 7/10, 5/10.....Don blame them, cos its only human. Its tough to be a leader... No one said it was easy... If you cant do it, dont. if you cant be a teacher, don teach. if you cant be an artist, don draw. the concept is as simple as tt.=)
i wouldnt say my leadership journey has ended. it has just started. I'm in an observatory role now. =)) watch and learn. learn the good and learn from the bad. i'll be adding more rules to my list of priciples.
you guys should have one too.=)
it organises your life.
Makes your life feel more worthy.
and reminds you of who you are.=))
tired.
feeling better.
nites.
the garden in my heart.messed.
