My new semester kicked off today. And you know how cliche it is to remind yourself that you have to work hard for this sem and try to get good grades but in the end the situation turns out to be a flop. Im often kept in awe by people who are so motivated to do things which they set out to do and aim to achieve. Just ytd, i happen to watch this 'three wishes' show on channel 5 and it featured this 10 yr old kid who aspires to be a company's CEO one day and his wish was granted by the production team. What was very amazing was that this 10yr old was given a chance to meet Bill Gates and be Microsoft's CEO for a day. Yet, he showed no signs of nervousness nor lack of confidence in what he was doing. What i saw was a strong-willed young boy who knew exactly how the rest of his life might be like and how he shapes himself to be like someone as successful as Bill Gates just at the age of 10. Watching all this makes me feel microscopic and ashamed. Ashamed by how im progressing on with my life while others are propelling full speed ahead with the era. I guess it all boils down to one's self determination and having a clear vision of your own future.
And thats why
I decided to read my accounting later tonight. hah.
