Well, its been a while hasn't it? I blog like the monsoon season...when i blog, i blog relentlessly, and when i halt, i won't blog again till a few weeks or months later, after which i will blog relentlessly again. =)
So is this time around a "monsoon" season or otherwise? Hahah
Anyway, being in my new profession as a financial consultant is rather interesting, the agency i'm in has really given me a paradigm shift in the way i think and the way i operate my life. Although i am still far away from my goals, i know i'm at least going in the right direction.
Attending achiever's night on friday was really an eye-opener for me and a chance for me to evaluate why i want to be in this business or profession so very much. Is it for myself? for the person that was sitting beside me the whole night or is it for a higher cause?
I believe it is for all above, i guess as a son, as a boyfriend and as a colleague, i have certain responsibilities i need and have to bear, certain tasks i must accomplish and certain missions in life i must fulfill.
Perhaps as an undergrad, i am disabled in a few aspects, but then why so does great philosophers and teachers like Earl Nightingale who says that "You are what you think of about the most" and why does the Secret often refer to the law of attraction as fundamentally that we will get, regardless of what we think about, if we continually hold on to the thought with a singlesness of purpose, a singleness of desire and a singlesness of thought.
This is how the way the universe works.
I watched an interesting documentary the other day about how the mind works and how it affects and interacts with the environment in which we operate. That living humans, in very essence, are living, walking, breathing objects that interact and responds to the universe and the magnetic and electrical waves and pulses that permeates through. In very essence, it actually points to the fundamentals of The Law of Attraction.
It is profound and may seem weird or far off to some, but as Bill Procter says "We should not reject it, just because we fail to understand it".
I woke up today having a thought and a single objective that occupied my mind. In it, i was so convinced and so determined that i will one day set up my own agency and, like a light-bulb flashing in my mind, i thought of so many ways to kick start my dreams. What name i will call it, what colour themes it will be and what kind of environment i wanted it to be. I saw in it, the people i wanted to work together with, the faces of my associates and the expressions on their faces when my agency sweeps all the awards away in 5-7 years time.
Maybe this is the law of attraction working? That i am actually atrracting into the thoughts and my innermost desires in my life?
A small incident today made me reflect on how i should conduct myself now, had a good talk with dear and she made me realise that certains things i say or do now is under the scrutiny of my potential clients and current ones too, so i must be prudent and be tactful so as not to step on anybody's toes. Thank you dear, its always good to have an extra pair of eyes to critique and let me know where i went wrong, better than having to crash into the wall without even knowing its there. =)
This whole month, many things have happened to change my perspective on life and reaffirm the goals i set for myself. Perhaps, its time to let go of the old me and begin to embrace a tougher Alan mentally.
FEAR
Many a times i feel fear in doing the thing i have passion about, but fear....fear is psycological, fear is intangible and fear is self-made, but if the power is within me and therefore, under my control, i should and definitely have the power to suppress this fear and change it into courage, courage to overcome fear, courage to head forth into territories many before me have said will leave me sad and unsatisfied. Territory many have said will make me fail and that i will evetually, like what Brian Tracy said "Die in the desert".
I know, and i believe, that with the support from my dear, my parents, my agency and my mentor, i will, with a singleness of purpose, singleness of thought and singleness of desire and purpose, achieve what i set myself to achieve.

Well, its been a reflective post thus far and i will leave you with m favourite quote from Friedrich Nietzsche
"He who has a why to live for, can bear almost anyhow" =)
Adios!
