Goal oriented and plan oriented

I am a goal oriented person, my wife is a plan oriented person. So we crash quite a lot, I complain for things happen to be not flexible enough and she complain I am too rush to get to the goal and not detail enough.

Plan oriental

After long arguing about plan and goal, I think I get some conclusion from that. It is best to combine both, we can’t be just goal or plan oriented, we need both, more plan than goal.

Goal oriental

Plan oriented person will plan a whole timeline and steps to do in order to get to the goal. A goal oriented person will look only on the goal. Combine them: Set goal on each step of the plan.

See solution, not problem

I spend a lot of time thinking alone while smoking. That is what I enjoy most of the time when I get too busy with my task. Not only it will relax my mind from current situation, it also help refresh my mind when I get back to work.

Puzzle

After year of working my own and listening to some nagging (Or just a pessimistic talk), I get used to change my perspective when shit hit the fan – Look for solutions, not into the problem and the why.

A lot of people, my wife included, always look into a problem or even, analyse why the problem occur. Panic is the emotion. While they are questioning why, I will start my lighter and start going into a solution instead. Doesn’t matter what happen, it happened. Thinking about how it had happen the first place, doesn’t help much, it only give lesson for next time, same situation.

3 things I believe

I always believe in faith, self-control (Ok, probably not too good in self-control part, but that’s another story) and cleanliness.

Cherating

Faith, is when I believe that what in my face will be following me the whole day. If I woke up thinking some shitty stuff, my whole day going to be shit. The same thing if I woke up in the morning thinking some good things going to happen, at least I get a good day. So I wake up with a smile mostly, self-control isn’t that strong yet so it is a “mostly” happen thing.

Controller

Self-control is where I failed at bad habit, but others, I can still resist it. Like getting stuff for myself, I don’t believe in working hard and “reward” myself a thing or two. I believe, we work to live; eat for survive. That control me from buying unecessary stuff, and eventually I keep thing minimum and less messy.

Organize

Cleanliness is like faith. How my room, my pocket, even my wallet looks going to reflect how a life I am having. If I having a messy room, my life will starts to get very messy and crowded and very unorganise. While I was in university life, I encounter quite a lot of this situation, so I keep myself check of my room from time to time, preferable weekend.

Need them, don’t love them

Money, one thing we all need, but some tend to love them. Money is an item to do business, it’s a piece of paper that worth something created by some people, who may not even worth anything now.

Money

I take it as… A thing to exchange for an item I want. Much like barter system, you give something that has a value in exchange, you get something that has ther value.

So we need them. We will do something about it just to get some of them so we can get something to survive. But when people love them, they will do anything just to get it. The “anything” then started to get rotten.

Example? Look at Malaysia politicians :)

A little green of peace

Jungle

Maybe I should get some green stuff in my work desk. An artificial ferns will works too. Perhaps to just give some illusion for my mind by telling myself there is fresh air in the work desk :lol:

Subang Jaya, where I stay when I first stepped in KL, I was shocked with its development. No green area to view, a every morning, I was waken up by “Ark! Ark! Ark!” the crow. It is just so different from my own home town, everywhere is green, everywhere I can get fresh air, I can even hear bird singing in a much comfotable tunes every morning and evening.

Green is peace…
