Having a break…
It is approaching the milestone of life for a man while I was forced to take a break in relationship and career. Either a coincident or backed by reasons, people would pronounce it as the lower point of life. But from my viewing angle, I see it as the turning point of life. This is the point for you to look back of what you’ve done, what was your attitude towards life, what did you neglected and appreciated, etc.
Philosophy
It developed from the young age, grab and hold on the balancing point in anything and everything you do. Be it the physical movement of your body, the way you communicate with people, the approaches to solve a problem, your eating habits, etc. you tend to have conflict if it is out of balance. This is part of the Confucianism philosophy, even it is easy to say than do, but we have to practice it.
I realised that I lost my balance in life for the past few years.
Passion
When we do something with passion attached to it, the result can be tremendous! The creativity, focus, efficiency, energy and many more qualities within you will show on work you have done with passion. It is arguably that we can’t find the passion in everything we do, especially on job we do to earn a living. However, with full heartedly involvement and getting best result out of it, there is a passion. I believe passion is the main element for self satisfaction on things you do and result you obtained.
I’ve lost the passion, the burning flames in things I’ve done recently.
Goal
Do we set goal beyond our limitation? We don’t usually, because we aren’t somebody with extraordinary intelligent and wisdom. Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton and Thomas Edison are people who set their goal beyond their limitation and they achieved. You can follow their footsteps if you think you got those qualities within you and be prepare to sacrifice others.
Do we set goal that is unclear and unspecified? We do and always, unclear perimeters and unspecified boundaries give us space to alter the goal line at any given time.
I ask some people around me about what they want in life, answers I got are like “an ordinary life”, “I can do what I like to do”, etc. Yup, these can be considering as goals, goals that are fragile and without base.
Am I lack of confident to set a solid goal of life?
Taking a break in life at this moment is like spending time luxuriously. While everybody taking every second to pursue their goal, I am having my own sweet time to look back and think over something that wondering in a normal person’s mind. However, this break mustn’t take too long to affect the competitiveness and advancement in life. A pit stop in a Grand-Prix racing is a crucial point to get a good finishing, so do the break that I am taking now.
