Your boss is watching you

Well, sometimes, when we work, there are certain ethics that we have to follow, or some sort of code of conduct.

What if, one day, you find out that your boss is watching you? Everything you do is taped down, being watched. Will you be scared? Will you regret for what you shouldn't have said?

Come to think about it, always be careful. No employer likes employees who gossip or try to be funny in the company. So, keep in mind that, be ethical. Because, you will never know who is watching you!

Family Day

After quite some stress from work, home is always the best place. By home, I don't mean a small narrow room or some place furnished all the nice stuff in the world. By home, I mean a cozy place filled with people that you love and who love you.

Home is indeed the best place for an escape. Family members are the only people who will tolerate you, and like you for who you are. You can really be yourself at home. Unless you are living in a big family with an ocean of wealth. Then, you probably need to play some politics to outshine everyone, for the wealth and the fame.

Well, I don't have a pool of wealth at home, but I own a pool of love. The best thing that ever exists. :) They have been very supportive of me, even when I was out of job, when I was on job hunt, they never nagged nor complained. Cool indeed.

Every Morning

Weeee it's saturday! But, I am still up early.

Suddenly the song of Sugar Ray keeps ringing in my head. It feels awful having to wake up early. I am still so sleepy and have not recovered from my post-fatigue yesterday. Running on turbo for 2 days straight strained me out like crazy.

Well, being at home gave me some freedom. But, one day, if you decide to 'fully utilize' the freedom and put your work aside. God bless you. The stress will haunt you for the rest of the week.

Gosh.

End of the week

Weeeeeee finally it's the friday, and after some massive struggles, somehow I managed to finish work in time. But, I am running out of brain juice.

Gosh, headache headache. I can't imagine if I will have to do this for the rest of my life. It may seem like a simple job, but when you get your hands on it, you will say otherwise!

GBMS.

I have been flipping the classifieds on the papers. Man, even job hunt is not easy. Well, the thought of restarting the whole process just scares me, I am still not recovered from the trauma.

Behaviours that cause stress

Sometimes, stress does not necessary come from the external sources. In fact, most of the time, it is our behavior that causes us stress.

For example, you knew there is a project due the day after tomorrow, and you need to get it done by tonight. But, due to laziness, you decide to slack tonight and hang out with friends. In the end, tomorrow you suffer the whole day rushing the project.

So, from this example, we can see that we create the stressor ourselves.Should we had disciplined ourselves and follow the tight schedule, we would not be suffering the stress now.

Duh,this is exactly what I am experiencing right now!

Another day ends

Finally another day ends, somehow I managed to meet the quota of work of the day. But, as I slacked a little on last Friday, I am now suffering the consequences. I guess, it is better for me to OT or whatever and finish what's pending by all means.

It's quite disturbing when you know you have pending work. The stress of the disturbing thoughts can be crazy.

Monday Super Blues

Although I am back to SOHO, but Monday is still a Monday to me, and I need to be mentally prepared to work on Monday. These days, I tried to keep a discipline of myself though, wake up on time, work, then off on time. I have had the experience of without a disciplined time schedule, and my life was quite screwed.

So, this time, I need to tell myself, be discipline be disciple.

Cheeeers

If tomorrow never comes

Ronan Keating had a song with the above title. But, right now, I feel kinda inspired after studying 50 articles on 'Stress Management'.

Well, the main thing I have learnt is...

- Live for today. Worrying too much about tomorrow will only cause you more stress.

Okay, so you see, human race is very paranoid and tends to worry about future, about things that have not happened, or not going to happen at all. In short, we are scared of the uncertainties.

For example, I have met my deadline today and I already knew what's on hand tomorrow. I was thinking to do it today so tomorrow I can chill a little, but, come to think about it, what if I have completed my work for tomorrow then I suddenly die??? Isn't that a big loss?

So, you see, the point is, just live for today. If you had your whole life planned, then suddenly when you wake up the next day, you are not breathing anymore. And you are greeted with just a 'good game'!

Isn't that saddening? So, spend all your money, live while you can, do everything that you like. But, if you are broke spending all your money, but tomorrow you are still breathing, then, well, pray hard for $$ to fall from sky!

What a great stress relief eh?
