d past years ive been trying to concentrate on getting the favorable result that i wanna get after d work..well i guess that was a natural instinctive reaction.. hu wants to work hard for nothing? wen we r into sumthing, we are motivated not by what we really want but the result that we're anticipating to reap... but unfortunately, sometimes no matter how hard we try, how effective our strategic plan, failure is always an inevitable outcome.. is there somthing wrong with us? with the situation? or with several factors.. but there are two reprehensible elements for this failure... its either that we put the blame on oursleves or other pipol.. after this frustration comes in, disappointment, desperation, until such time that we loose our stimulant to do our best... sometimes, its much better to ponder on how can we make it again next time rather than to brood over and over again.. its not bad to ponder wt r d things we did to fail.. though sumtimes we can really answer dt, sumtimes, its gud to kip in mind that there are things that you did best but wasnt gud enuf in sum ways..that's life...
but don't u see? our mistakes just help us to be better.. its a paradox and an irony, but our mistakes is frequently beneficial on our part if we allow ourselves to put them on a positive perspective.. i remember my favorite author then, ken blanchard is his name and his book is entitled "make a life not just a living"... in his book he told his reader to focus on the roots not on the fruits.. which is exactly related to what im talking about..
when we do something, we're always focused on getting favorable result.. but what is really important is the reason why we are doing something...doing something that we really love with all our mind, heart, and soul, regardless of the result.. wow!! i now call this unconditional passion...yeah!! got it?!! agree?
sometimes, building this unconditional passion is more rewarding than focusing on the external rewards...so as the intrisic motivation rather than the extrinsic motivation..
wen u do this without expecting in return other than you just simply love it, its more fulfilling, enduring, and rewarding in a thousand ways whatever the result..but of course, there is nothing satisfying than to produce gud results after hard work...
unconditional passion to do your work stands the test of time, keeps you going no matter how tough the situation is... it cultivates your creativity to pursue despite of harsh cimrcutnces brought by people around you, as well as the external environment...
did u feel unconquerable inside? i do.. let the unconditional passion burn inside my heart eternally...
