Bronzy:
How I would love to be in your shoes - contented with life! Right now, I find it hard to imagine ever reaching that point!
Hi Bronzy, that's probably because I have already paid my dues with all the big mistakes I have made, and now, I am hopefully learning how to avoid some. It also means life becomes more boring. You'll be even better off than me. Just plan for it to happen. Someone once told me this and I hold that dear to my heart: \"If you want success, plan for it to happen.\" -

I've heard that quote before. Found it strange then and find it strange now! If it were really possible to plan success, wouldn't everyone do it?! I sure haven't figured out how to plan success. Have tried instead to practice being happy where I am. Not always successful with that either!! -

Some years ago, I was watching TV with my mom, I was expecting #2. It was news and a lady was receiving some awards. I told my mum, \"I will receive that award next year.\" She smiled an unbelieving smile at me.
I had no idea how to go about it at all! But, because I made that plan, I did all I could to try to achieve that. Well, I did not win that award the next year. I won it the year after that.
Self-fulfilling prophecy. I always believe that. Either way. Predict the good, the good will happen because we will deploy all our resources to achieve that. Predict the bad... ahem! I wouldn't do that. -

The most cruel thing is the past. A great past makes one feels so small today. A terrible past leaves scars that hinders today’s endeavours. Today is the first day of the rest of our lives. And the future has so much to hold. Past is past already lah. One day, when you come over to my house for coffee, I will show you those trophies, and I’ll tell you what’s it’s like… ha ha ha…

Your definition of past is cool but past is also known as history where people will deliberately study and sit for exams too!!! :lol: Honestly, there are things to learn from the past and past glory is not forgotten, you think people has forgotten APS who now quietly coaches swimming?
