Getting used to Busy
Thursday, July 09, 2009
The past week has been hectic but its very much welcomed. kinda not used being in the house after noon, watching tv and let time just flow by.
Awhile back i was dreading busy, always wanted to earn the income yet be able to slack and basically earn money without having to move my ass. Sounds great isn it? its like winning lottery and nv have to work anymore, living off the investment interest for the rest of the life just like an instant retirement.
but the world dosen work like that, you will nv be able to succeed even if opportunities are thrown straight into your path, even if gold and riches are presented to you on a platter, things would still not work out. Even if you have it, it will be temporary, more like renting a property to stay and not really owning it.
one utmost truth that eluded most if not all who died trying to find shortcuts: "you must be in the position ready to succeed before you actually succeed". just like the chinese saying and pardon direct translation "prepare the troops for 1000 days, to be used in a single battle"
in certain industries, you need to be ready to succeed for a long long time before musical chair finally bestows upon you due to company headcount, illness, structure or even management oppression.
Be it long wait or an instant finish, you need to be ready when it happens.
