Patience is a virtue

Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.
- John Quincy Adams

Patience is necessary, and one cannot reap immediately where one has sown.
- Soren Kierkegaard

To endure is greater than to dare; to tire out hostile fortune; to be daunted by no difficulty; to keep heart when all have lost it; to go through intrigue spotless; to forego even ambition when the end is gained - who can say this is not greatness?
- William M. Thackeray

Patience is necessary, and one cannot reap immediately where one has sown.
- Soren Kierkegaard


Based on the these quotes as you all may know it's going to be a post about patience...something sadly is seriously lacking in today's youth.One should always try to endure instead of giving up, find solutions on your own or with help instead of complaining about it.As you can see in the global scale there are cases such as riots, uprising and even rebellion; let's not also forgot the major economic crisis we are about to endure for a certain period term until America settle's it's debt matters. Let's face it some of these things are not justifiable (some part is justifiable bout the riots in London,not that I agree with how the youth there reacted).

We do not even have to look offshore to see that even some of the youth's in our own nation is severely lacking in this department. For example's pushing and shoving in KTM, battling for parking, items and even to pay during sales and even some crack on their first step into working field. I had a chat with some friends of mine today (identities are classified)and forgive me for the vulgarity all I heard was them bitching and whining about it, nobody said it was a walk in the park lads.In the working field you must know your rights and where you stand as new employee's don't let them (regular staff) get to you, if your boss yells at you well suck it up! These friends of mine started complaining that their job was boring, always under tight dead lines, getting scolded and such...and I asked them a simple question, Why did you get yelled at? 75% said that they did something wrong; Why did they do something wrong? 80% said cause they didn't check their work thoroughly; Why didn't you check? 100% said the same f^&king thing "BOSAN DAN MALASLAH". Hell if that's the way it is and you complain that it is boring then let's face it the higher post is gonna elude you.

In my opinion one should always endure the external pressure (gossiping,scolding,yelling,same tasks given over and over, plus find some reasons if you can't solve it and when the boss call's you and demands a reason at least you will have one instead of the usual "ENTAH or I DON'T KNOW). My lads,my advice is this no matter how boring the task is just be patient and do it, quit complaining...be appreciative that at least you have a job, there's a very high unemployment rate now so be thankful that you are employed. As for co-workers giving you hard time all I have to say is this "NO PAIN NO GAIN" they are there to mold you into a tough (mentally) employee...take them as a challenge and when you do overcome it you will realize that they made you better.The more you whine or bitch about it the more you tend to give up...DON'T, "ROME WAS NOT BUILT IN A DAY" so endure it and focus on your job and screw your co-workers or bosses if they get a holiday,a dinner, a festival and you are left out; just focus on your god damn job and take pride in your job no matter how repetitive it is.

After a few years you will realize that those repetitive tasks, scoldings or yelling's have help as a solid foundation to your career. I myself admit that during my first day of work I was complaining a lot (ergo the me now would gladly smack the me back then). But as times pass you don't need to pegged yourself to your co-workers, be better than them and take charge if need be. One should always be patient with these things, it's not like you will be considered an equal right of the bat, you will have to earn your stripes for that.One to two years of doing the same repetitive task is worth it if you have mastered it and in the next 5 years after that you will be the one teaching those in your place at the moment no? Anyways to all my lad's here's my advise, quit bitching and complaining about it and be patient while enduring it...the long term period reward is going to be rewarding...this is if you work hard at it though. That's all for now, Laters.

Happy Ramadhan to All

Birthday and Off the maket



What up folks? yes today this blogger turns another year older (damn I feel old!). Anyways just to inform you guys that yours truly ain't big on celebrating turning older, getting gifts or partying till the break of dawn (I'll be working the next day!).

This ancient/ old school blogger of yours once upon a time preferred to spend time on his bed pretending it is not his birthday and wishing everyone would just leave him alone (depressing I know, but hey I'm getting older!).

At last this year my birthday is during the fasting month (no meals by day? NOOOooooo - Anakin Skywalker style. But hey I enjoyed my day by spending time with someone I truly love and that's all I want honestly, some quality time with the hopefully soon-to-be (but not that soon) fiance/wife of mine and I'm a happy man. Yeaps this sad bloke has taken himself of the market ladies and gents (has been off the market a year actually, just didn't give a memo), now working on maintaining the relationship I have with my dearest partner. Hopefully (and God Willing) in 3-4 years we should be able to tie the knot (ergo we need stable income and get our license first).

Look, I ain't trying to be all mushy mushy just cause it's my birthday and you all have to listen to to what I say; it's just that the youth generation these days tend to fail in relationships cause they don't want to be fully committed or work out issues with their partners.Relationships are tough but it is also rewarding to have someone standing by your side in my opinion, screw it I'm old school. So I'm gonna take my relationship with her one stride at a time, and face the obstacles in our way no matter what cause I DO REALLY LOVE/ CHERISH HER...and all you skeptics saying this and that can keep your comments to yourself, I'm committed to this girl for life.So for all you lady reader's sorry but I have already found my soul mate (hopefully) I am OFFICIALLY OFF THE MARKET, may you guys and gals find yours too.

Anyways that's it for now folks, thanks for the wishes...truly appreciate it.Later's
