An inspirational article

I have always like the articles written by Geoff Tan in My Paper. He writes about family relationship and how to treat ur family members and others. I love this particular article on 14th May 2009.


Extracted from Geoff Tan's article on 14th May 2009.

Tile: Your reaction is key

Whatever the incidents that frustrate you in you life are, they are more likely to be influenced by how you react to them than the incidents themslves.

If you have ever wondered why such incidents happen to you more so than to anyone else, you may want to consider applying maagement guru Stpehen Covey's 90/10 Principle to rid yurself of these frustrations once and for all.

This principle is founded on the premise that 10 per cent of life is made up of what happens to you, and the remaining 90 per cent is decided by how you react those events.

Take for example, this scenerio: You are ahving breakfast with your family. Your son spills a cup of tea on your office shirt. You have no control over what ju happened. But what happens next will be determined by how you react. You may swear or shout at your son for being so careless.

He breaks down and you turn to your wife, accusing her of placing the cup too close to the edge of the table. She starts an argument while you stride to your room to change out of your shirt.

Your son is too distraught to finish breakfast. The delay causes him to miss his bus. Your wife leaves for work. You decide to take your son to school and end up getting fined for speeding. Your son, still angry at you, slams the car door without saying goodbye. You get to the office half-an-hour late and realised you had forgottn to take your laptop with you.

It was all in all, a very bad day.

Then, it gets progressivelu worse and you wish the work day would end soon so that you can go home. Then, it gets progressively worse and you wish the work day would end soon so that you can go home. When you do, you find both your wife and son refusing to talk to you.

You asked yourself: Why did I have such a bad day?

Was it the tea that caused it? Or was it your son?

Nope, you were the one responsible. You, and you allone! How you reacted in the seconds after the tea was spilt set off a chain of events which led to the day being a bad one.

If you had applied the 90/10 Principle, this could have happened instead:

Tea is spilt on you - the 10 per cent you cant control. But you can determine the outcome of remaining 90 per cent. Your son is about to cry. You put your arm around him and tell hime that it's okay.

You change our your shirt, grab your lap top and hea for the car after kissing your wife goodbye. Your son waves to you from the bus and you get to work on time.

You feel on top of the world and the day is off to a great start.

Isnt it strange that both scenerios started out the same way but ended on wastly different notes? My friends, don t let the 10 per cent that happens to you lead you to make wrong decisions for the remaining 90 per cent, which is very much within your control.

For example, if a car rudely cuts into your lane, a taxi driver sounds his horn at you, a colleague passes a negative remark, you maid stains your favourite shirt, or, worst of all, your boss tells your that your are fired, take a deep breath.

Now, think very, very carefully, because what you do in the next few seconds will dtermine whether you come out a "winner", or face a disadtrous outcome.

You decide!


Yes.. I can decide the outcome.. Ren Ding Shen Tian!! Yes.. every wk making a change.. Looking fwd to attending "Effective Emceeing" - Nacli course on coming sat.

Back from SZ and HK..

I'm back from biz trip to Shenzhen and HK... was tiring.. let me tell u wat i have done for the past 4 days...

Reached Changi Airport at 630am.. Enthu abt my trip... =) I only brought 1 backpack and laptop bag with me..


Me carrying my stuff.. Toilet at the airport has changed so much.. so nice =)


Brunch on plane


I took the 130pm ferry to Shenzhen Shekou ferry terminal.. My flight arrived at HK ariport at 1215pm.. so i had 0.5 hr to kill.. Need to take the bus to the ferry terminal at 1pm.. So I bought a magazine to read on the ferry.. it's damn gd.. even taught us in details how to do nice eye makeup and hair.. then the clothes super chio... singapore magazine no fight man..


My room at Holiday Inn.. I booked a king size bed.. they gave me 2 single beds.. haiz.. nmind lah..


Reason for taking this pic is cos my hair looks smooth.. i'm more suitable to stay in places where the weather is cooler.. skin and hair seems smoother.. hehe


On the bus from Shi Jie Zhi Chuan MTR station back to hotel.. This is bus 70 (instructed by the hotel staff).. I had to take a bus to the nearest MTR station "Window of the world" station approx 20mins. Then take a train to Hua Qiang Lu approx. 25mins.


I told the engineer the next day where I went.. He was quite impressed that I went there on my own.. cos he said it's quite far from where I stayed and there were pickpockets there. so quite dangerous to go alone.. The place I went is Hua Qiang Bei Lu..

I was quite clueless as to which mall to go.. As I walked I only saw malls selling IT pdts.. Then I was thinking if I have been to the wrong place.. then I saw a mall selling female clothes.. but not cheap.. then i exit the mall and I saw a place like Bugis.. Happi lah.. hehe.. it's shopping paradise.. lots of things to buy.. mostly bags and clothes.. then i bought a super nice jeans.. the sales girl was super nice too.. helped me to find like over 10 pairs of jeans.. then I found one tt i really like and fitted me.. it's not super cheap.. but reasonable.. 230 RMB.. then she oso explained where they goods came from.. they were extras made by the factory of branded labels or some had a little defects.. but they looks nice to me though... then we discussed abt her fav singers.. Steff and tanya.. mine too..


Working in the hotel at 10pm.. checking email.. super tired.. cos I didnt sleep well the nite b4... I have my little elephant to pei me.. =)


Complimentary fruit.. only ate the banana.. too full the next few nites to eat them..


Me working.. looking tired



My Shoppings on the first day. Bought 2 CK bags, 1 Agus B bag, 1 CK top, 2 cute tops and 1 nice jeans.. =)I split my money into 3 portion.. so i dun have enough money for the day.. so planned to go back there on the 3rd day... cos i planned to go to Luo Wu to find tiffany jewellery.. but was really disappointed.. cos the quality sux.. have to asked them to bring the nicer ones.. pls the prices they quoted are exobitant.. luckily the engineer helped me to bargain.. haha..


First nite slept at 1plus am.. woke up suddenly at 530am.. dunno why.. then didnt sleep well after.. woke up at 715 and went for breakie and then met the engineer for the count.. Then took the car to the CM site @ DongGuang for the count.. ended at 5pm and reached Shenzhen at 6plus.. Went to Luo Wu Shopping centre.. Main aim is to buy tiffany fakes.. But was dissapointed.. all of those looked quite fake. then finally the engineer went to approach on auntie to show us nicer ones..then the cost she first quote was 400...piang.. so ex.. 400 for 2 pieces..then he helped me to bargain till 80..thx to him.. then didnt buy anything there already.. wasted trip..
Reached hotel at 10plus.. logged to check email... but something wrong with my remote access. I restarted my com for 4 times then gave up.. attempted to sleep early at 12.. but only managed to sleep at 1am.. super tired.. then woke up at 6 again. peng.. waited for the morning call at 7.. then washup and ate breakie and meet the engineer at the lobby at 8am.. Went to another CM at Guangzhou.. 1.15hr ride.. Tt count ended late.. then we had our dinner at Guangzhou cos he anticipated that there will be traffic jam... had dinner until 730pm and setoff.. Really loh... there's traffic jam.. it's super kua zhang one.. the car was stationary for 1 hr... Piang.. I have the urge to go to the toilet cos jus had dinner.. then we had Tsingtao beer oso..

One farnie thing was the storekeeper of the CM (girl) thought that i came from another part of China.. peng.. She say my mandarin not bad.. dun sound like Singaporean.. then I wondered Singaporeans can speak quite ok chinese wat.. I dunno whether it's a compliment or not.. plus the engineer oso commented that i looked like someone who drinks.. look like meh? Onli managed to reach Shenzhen at 11pm.. damn damn tired.. then checked email and slept at 1plus.. nearly died.. then woke up at 715 and prepared to check out.. all ready to go to HK for food =)

Reached HK ferry terminal.. I cant take a ferry back to HK Airport cos i cant leave Hk.. it's only for departure from HK airport.. Wanted to go to the airport to deposit by barang barangs.. So i hav to lug 2 bags and 1 super heavy lap top bag to walk around..



My Dim sum lunch.. This is mango pomelo. I went to Chao Lou at TST... finally went to TST. didnt go there last dec.. but there's nothing much to shop over.. or maybe i got no inkling on where to go...

Finally at TST..


My 3 heavy bags.. Going to carry them to shop in Mongkok.. Not only are they heavy.. then r bulky and difficult to manuveur in the cramp Argle Centre..


@ my Fav Mongkok


On Airport Express to Airport. I planned to take a train from MK to Airport at 330pm and checkin at 430pm.. but I really had no strength to shop already and it's troublesome to move around with so much stuff.. So i left MK at 230pm and reached Airport at 330pm.. So much time to nuah.. So listen to MP3 and read my magazine over and over again..


@ the airport with my 3 heavy bags


My plane back home


Happi


Bought another Magazine.. I dun have enough money to buy 1 box of Lao Po bing.. damn sad.. I had 40 left but the lao po bing cost 50.. siah.. so used the money to buy another magazine.. but it's not as nice as the one i first bought


Cool place to nuah.. in the boarding area infront of the planes..




TT's all folks..
