There is Never a PERFECT TIME, Don't Wait

Image
Are you wanting to make a big change in your life, but keep telling yourself "when the time comes, i will..." ?   Maybe you want to start an investment. Maybe you want to start a business. Maybe you are waiting for something to happen to help you make the decision to do something impactful in your life. You know what,  it ain't gonna happen . Nothing will happen to help you start. Nothing. If you want something, you have to plan it, and work for it, instantly, literally, INSTANTLY. If you want something, any other things outside the plan you are doing now, are called  procrastinating . Don’t wait .  Success does not come into your life like slotting in a "success" folder on a files rack. It is an accumulation of every "little" successes towards your goal, for example, taking the first step in your plan. Or even start planning your steps toward your goal.

Now they realized whenever a monkey tries to climb the ladder, the rest will get cold water. Now, whenever anyone of them tries the ladder, the others would stop him and bet him up. To avoid getting sprinkled obviously. After a while, no one is inte...

Everyone Sees Things Differently

We human learn about our surrounding with our senses. Everything we see, hear, touch, smell, taste etc. is like an input to our brain, just like we type on keyboard to input text into computer. And everytime we receive information from our senses, we compare it to our big old "database" we have up in our brain. It will try to find a similar or closely resemble match to give it a meaning, associate the info we received with a feeling. Before the brain could process it or match it with anything familiar in our brain, the info is pretty much useless, meaningless, we will not exhibit any emotion towards that info. Once our brain finds an close match to our "database" aka. past experience, then we will perceive that information with the knowledge we have on past event, and try to translate the new information into something we know/ we thought we know/ we make up to know. And only then, that piece of information that our senses picked up from our surroundi...
