Some Serious Talk I Had.

Ive been trying to blog these few days, but im just too lazy to type it out from my mobile. My lappy was sent away for some repair because I (stupidly) dropped it to the floor and cracked the screen. DAMN..

Anyway, I had some serious talk with my friends about life and our future undertakings. One of them complained about how unfair he thought life is; I smiled and said: 'took you awhile to realise that huh?' Life IS unfair, so be it. Instead of loathing every second of it, take it as given; and make the best out of whatever you have.

Oh, he questioned how some people would go the extra mile and probably elbow a few people along the way to get to where they want to be. Well, I've always known we are all a little selfish. Its an innate survival instinct - social Darwinism. By that, i dont mean I subscribed to the belief that we were all once a bunch of APE tho. I believe in the ONE, GOD ALMIGHTY. But, sometimes, be it subconsciously or not, one may put their self first before others. If you are REAL enough to admit, you would agree with me. The best part is, WHO SAYS ITS WRONG?

Well, some people would just cheat their way up- they call it strategic planning. Fair enough. But just because they do it, does that mean we should too? Nah, I FOLLOW MY OWN TERM. I think, in quest for success.. one must not lose their own identity. I stay true to my guiding principles.. I stay true to myself. Some might argue, I JUST DONT LISTEN. They are wrong, I DO LISTEN. But my brain has this selective hearing.. It can only take in as much for as long as it does not contradict to my principle. Then again, if u ask me.. I honestly dont know WHAT EXACTLY ARE MY GUIDING PRINCIPLES. I simply go with guts, to tell me if its wrong or not. I think, it also comes down to my years spent on education. Well, fortunately for me.. the system taught me to have my own stance and STICK WITH IT. So, i supposed in that sense, I HAVE ACHIEVED SOMETHING.

So, I told him.. You can choose ur own path. If u think "strategic planning" gets u places, then by all means GO AHEAD. there is no one stopping u. But, I remember my chemistry teacher once told me:

"Good Things Happen to Good People."

If you dont get in by playing fair, TRY HARDER. Never doubt ur capabilities, because trust me.. . Some of the things that u can do, to my best knowledge - IS SECOND TO NONE. Give urself more time, and rejection is just as BAD as YOU want it to be. OUH, I WOULD KNOW. When im feeling down, i usually dig deep and ponder on this:

BE SUCCESSFUL IN YOUR OWN TERM.

I hope he finds it helpful, because I DO BELIEVE IN HIM.
