Today, they came. Before they arrive, I was rehearsing in my head how I should react to them - give them the deadly stare, ignore them and retreat to my room.
But when they came, I laughed, I talked and I smiled - although not super happily. Things went well because the topic was ok. I was praying they don't ask me about work because I don't like to share those things. And they didn't. Phew.
And then it dawned on me - was I too negative in the past? Was I too grouchy?
I could have reframed my mind. I should have the following thoughts to make my life simpler, better and happier:
- I am good enough as long as I put in my best, as long as I acknowledge the efforts I put in
- Speak positively, think positively - fill my life with positive and kind words and remove the negative words like "hate", "disgust", "bitch", "bastard", "stupid"
- Be confident of myself - walk with stride, with confidence, SMILE and radiate good energy
- Know that I can't control things or people's mouth, but I can make them see me in better light
- Don't say too many "sorry". I always apologise for minor things, even when people step on me, I was the one who said "sorry".
- Be appreciative - say more "Thank you"
In this new year, I am also going to do more of the following:
- Meditate
- Stretch more, do some yoga
- Eat better - eat more yoghurt, cut down on fast food (try to have it only once a month), don't eat too much salad (too raw is not good for my body, cut down on dressings), don't eat too much raw food (eg. sashimi) because they are quite toxic
- Visit the TCM to build up a stronger body for myself and my future
- Upgrade to the best hospitalisation insurance plan because I can afford it at my age
- Invest more, at low risk because I don't have a big appetite for high risk. My target is to hit $100k in savings by age 28 (lol, who knows man)
It's already February (OMG), I've 10 more months to make a positive difference for myself.
