Being in Control

I used to think life is everything that comes as you expect, happens and leaves as you expect it to be.

Well, a few random incidents proved me wrong:

- Divorce among the impossible.
- My job which i initially thought was a nightmare
- What I want

The key thing towards where you are always lies at where you wish to be.
I have been taking it too slow to decide. And I realise i have to make it quick as time waits for no man. Be it because things that will not last forever -> good health, company, opportunties.

I'm learning to see why things are happening.
Why my current company instead of a Big MNC with all things ticking down?
Why THIS instead of hardcore engineering?
( But that doesnt mean i'm not giving up engineering okay? My blood and perk for engineering still persist high as ever!!! )

Seriously, we dont have absolute control of the many things... like the Massive earthquake in Japan.. One after another. Wish I'l give some to the needy once situation allows. These are the times you musnt say 'things can wait'.

More over, I used to wonder. Why am I getting this? (job scope ) but i began to fill. its because its the only void to bring me to the next step. The exact thing i need before i can move forward! And really, being able to be shortlisted TOO is something beyond my control :). So yeah, i wont complain.. At All!
As for my brother who unable to see why and kept asking me
" why work so hard for your boss? Its not like you are getting anything out from the money he makes end of the day!!"

Think again. Think- why does someone works Hard still... knowing the fact that monaterily theres no obvious benefit?
We all focus so much on whats obvious and short term. we forget sitting back and look at the bigger picture makes all the difference.
Sometimes, its best to sit back and plan than to grab first. True though, that monaterily, is very tempting. I myself, as a human being wont say i dread seeing the figures i can potentially make from my core line.

But at the end of the day, will my life be fulfilling? throwing away a good opportunity? And is my situation as bad as it seems? well, Not exactly. and theres nothing good out of it to bullshit :P

So, learn to see the two sides of things. we might not get control on everything. But we can always make good and get the best out of the situation we are in.
Always.

I feel blessed this time. Because I no longer have to trade off between studies, money and sleeping time like i used to.
Belief me, if you think my life seems moderate. It has improved and things will go well as long as i do my fair share in working on it!

One thing too. Others dont get great offer out of the sky. Everyone has an equal share of hardwork. Learn to understand that consideration and hardwork means everything.
