Learning Experiences

Okay, with regard to my current experiences and lesson learned, I think I better post some so that I will not forget them:

Lesson learned:

1. Procrastination ~ On answering an appointment, if you will prefer it today or tomorrow. You better answer with an open-ended answer so that he/she will be the one to tell if you have to do it today or other day. (On meeting somebody -- today or other day)

2. Practice what you teach - I alway though that I am in control of myself. I teach my kids the basic of driving: S -- Safety first; A -- be Alert, always; and R -- Relax and be cool, dont lose your patience. But, in one instance, while I'm driving a marked vehicle, I thought I must assert the authority of my vehicle, and overpassed some cars. Not knowing that it was to late to avoid a mishap. The car I was driving was side swipe by a 10-wheeler truck while turning. Fotrunately -- or may I say its a God's blessing while teaching me lesson of life, the truck shoulder all the insurance for the repair of the vehicle. I was not hurt during the accident, but it took a while before I am comfortable again in my driving.

3. Pocket your smile ~ I been cautioned twice on smiling while there's an environment of pressure. I've learned that you should keep your smile to yourself eventhough there is something to smile at.

4. Expectation ~ Never expect too much or you will be discouraged. Expect little so that if greater things happened your will really appreciate them.

5. Life is a Gift ~ While reading a book -- God little devotional book, I read about how some cancer patients can still live life and be happy, especially children. It is because they live their life not as a right or privilege, but as a gift... Just look how they can still smile and laugh.

That's all... I have to remember others...
