Book review.. -> The Undomestic Goddess <--

Finally finished reading this book upon the risk of my Asia boss walking behind me...

It ended off as a "happily ever after" story...

In the story... she was torned apart between going back to the glitering top-notch law firm in london & staying back in a laid-back village cotswold as a housekeeper... Finally, after a conclusive persuasion from Guy (another partner in Carter Spink), she chose to go back... So, what did Guy said? --> "you earned the partnership!"

Review point !10: how many times have we trully worked hard for something & can say, we EARNED this chance? i admit, i don't have many of such experience.. New resolution: to start EARNING things! Working Hard for somethings & call them your OWN! prob, many of you reading this are thinking that we are working in office now, i earn my income.. hhmm.. i agree.. hhmm.. what about earning yourself a wealth? what about earning a fortune with future?

Being a lawyer, she count her time by 6min pack.. think i mentioned this earlier.. haha.. this is such a great impact that i am bringing this up again!

Ending off, it is said something like.. : I am 29, i can do things that i want... everything else can wait...

Review point!11: How many of us living in tiny Singapore dare say this? can i? i can't! but i know of people who are! how nice and sweet... I am working hard to reach that point as well..
See, everything is like a return on effort! Samantha Sweetings spent her last 7 years (meaning from 22-29), she works like crazy from 7-9 or 11; working on weekends as well; every minute on the blackberry, replying email and moving forward in every aspect of her work!; and even have to tahan scoldings from her boss; play around in politics; show face-doing things that she is uncomfortable with!!!

Yes! Uncomfortable!!! = Getting out of the comfort zone!!!
Hence, can reach for results that is also outside your comfort zone!! Get it?
no? ok...

Go thru the following qns...

Think of at least 3 results that you want, you need and you must achieve in your life!
It can be in terms of family, health, social circles, personal development or financial wise.

done?

Ask yourself:
*replace the underlined words with the results that you have listed above!
"Are you comfortable/used to earning S$1million every week?" = No!
"Are you comfortable/used to driving Ferarri?" =No!

So, in fact, not only you, but many are not comfortable/used to getting the results we want in life!
= the results we want are not in our COMFORT ZONE!!

And if you FOREVER stay in your comfort zone, doing the same things forever, How on earth is it possible to reach for results that are OUTSIDE the comfort zome?

The worst spastic idiots in life are those who thinks that doing same thing everyday (e.g. 8-5pm) and hope for something different*!

*i mean paradigm shift kindof difference!

which marathon runner will ever break the world record if he is only comfortable with running 100-m a day?

is the same! if you are a working population, and aren't doing anything more than your work, you are also running only 100-m a day! you can be well very happy about it and live in bliss without any grumble... say satisfied!

Are you really satisfied? {screwed up face with high ego answered : YES!!!, of course}

then, here comes my next questions:

Satisfied with everything? =Yes
life? =Yes
money? =Yes
work? =Yes

If you aren't paid today, will you continue to work?
If you strike toto first prize today, will you give away the money to charity?

No, no nonononono... why?

i thot someone just said that he/she is Satisfied with life, work and money???

STOP BLUFFING your own SELF!

If ever again, opportunity comes by as a friend saying 'Hi' to you, don't turn people down!

for what goes around, comes around!
