ok, now it is 2011. chinese new year is coming soon =) hope this year will end fast. hope to get into either smu business or ntu maritime studies. hope this year will be a good year for all of us. i have finished my EAT, PRAY, LOVE by Elizabeth Gilbert. The overall rating i'll give is 8.5/10. I liked the food, the spiritual and love story combined in one book. This year i started reading 2 books. 'CONFUCIUS FROM THE HEART' & 'THE MONK WHO SOLD HIS FERRARI'. These 2 are soul and character enriching books. The Confucius book teaches us the right character to be qualified as a JUNZI. It teaches the moral value of humans and the correct way of living. I found it very useful and true. The next book; the monk who sold his ferrari is a book full of techniques to help you have a peace of mind and to reach your destiny and dreams. It is written by a renowned expert on personal development ROBIN SHARMA. Some sentences extracted from the book: 'Courage allow you to run your own life. Courage allows you to do whatever you want to do because you know that it is right.''Fears are nothing more than imaginary gremlins that have crept into your mind. Everytime they prevented you from taking some action, you have added fuel to their fire. But when you conquer your fear you conquer your life'.
For 2011, i am can can grow as a person, stop my bad habit of ''saying but in the end did nothing''. 'The JUNZI act first and later speak about his actions' - Confucius. And to be more firm and steadfast in my sayings. 'Without steadfastness he do not command respect' - Confucius.
