Being humble and stay in constant learning mode to improve oneself... Feeling useless is a stage of it but being persistent and patient enough to complete the job is important.
Promotion may not mean a huge change to my career. But company, project and job profile change is. Recently changed project and role, I keep telling myself this is a test to for my progression.
I remember a childhood friend ever told me human are just so not comfortable to move out from their comfort zone, and my partner told me managing people is tougher than project. There I am in all the above situation... Not only out of my comfort zone, and also how mature am I in managing my mood and people.
Then I remembered my ex project manger advise.. something in this direction... "Give your senior their due respect, even if they may not be as good.. respect them for their experience". As I progress at work, I start to appreciate what he said more n more.. Especially when I get to work with n see how rude some can be..
No matter which party win, I hope they work together for the best of our country and the many good years to come.
Bearing in mind that we are a small country with no natural resources.. its tough to reach where we are today at international level.. it is even tougher to maintain if not improved..
After yesterday, I hope we can be united as Singapore and forget about party diversity. Just like a family we debate on views but we live under the same roof n look out for each other in times of need.

Realised the change in me when reading news about election.. last election (i.e. 2011) I was not entirely clear who to vote. This year my stand was clear. The party clearly learnt n I could see n feel the change in them, while the other became more arrogance... I guess we are all human, hopefully both parties learnt n continue to work hard for the best of our beloved country - Singapore, for the many years to come.
Pre Election: 每个人的记预不同, 对人事物的看法也大大不同。
Post Election: I love my country... and it always worry me wondering how we can keep ourselves competitive on international level without any natural resource n with such limited land.
Yesterday I happened to come across the term "The Great Firewall".. It just occurred to me that in different era different type of wall was build but originate from the same country and perform a some how near similar function of block/fence off.
First we have the "The Great Wall".. and now we have "The Great Firewall". One as physical wall in battle another as virtual wall in cyberspace. This just tell us how much the world have change with technology..
Running alone with good music make me think...
When young I knew nuts about running, got introduced to cross country run n marathon. I admired n looked for a pacer in life...
Every running session taught me abt the different encounters a runner may meet n how to overcome them like how we lead our life n work...
When running with kids, I learnt to slow down my pace n hold their hands to run with them...
When kids grow up, they will learn to run independently...
By then if nobody is running the same pace as me, I will continue to enjoy my very own running session..
