"Grindin' till im tired."

Everytime, i had wanted to blog down my daily rants, loves and happening shietes, some other internet website would pop out and get me interested. Hence, i hardly blog. But life's been pretty busy lately and tiring. Juggling 2 temporary jobs and making plans to open up a joint-venture business with 2 other friends really take most of your days away. At times, i have only slept for 2 hours to manage and settle some shiete as well as helping out a friend over msn on CERTAIN problems.

Recently i met up with a friend of mine, a businessman and entrepreneur and a humble guy. He told me something which i hadnt quite realised about it that much. Until yesterday when i met up with him. He told me that fear is good for building dreams and achiving them. I was perplexed. I had always thought that working hard, having goals and praying to God would help me out. And so he shared with me, something along the lines of which i am about to type....

Sometimes, fear is good. Fear drives people forward. But fear can never work alone, one has got to have dreams and fears working hand in hand before they can move forward at a much faster pace. Everyone has dreams. Dreams to be rich and all. But everytime, a lot of people fail to have fear. I fear living the life like my parents and relatives now - living in a HDB and having measly salaries just enough to cover monthly expenses. That is why sometimes people dont really achive what they want in life, because knowing that even if they dont reach their dreams, at least they would still have a HDB house and all, just to make them feel better.

And he was right. Indeed i felt that way when doing my O's and A's but i had never really thought about it in such context - life and achieving the success that we want in it.

I have fear now. I fear of living in poverty, shame and failure. What about you?






Being fearless wouldnt really help you much,
