The Goal is To Focus On The Job Not The Environment

To be honest with you, the biggest challenge I faced in 2012 was my job. It had became increasingly difficult for me to give my full attention to my duty. Needless to say, that is why this year, the hardest thing for me to do is to resume working.

However, lately my mantra is "To focus on the job and not on the environment". It is because I really can't do much to those I have no control over. Right? So, I might as well just focus on thing that I can control which is my energy and my focus.

I am grateful to buy the book entitled Reinventing Yourself written by Mario Alonso Puig because it certainly has lead me into thinking about reinventing myself to become a better person. In relation to my job that particular story about Serenity which I have posted before really clicked with me. It gives me the inspiration to focus on doing my job and be a little oblivious about my environment.

Actually that is not something very difficult to do since I basically have practiced detaching from annoying situation aka environment. It only becomes a problem when I cannot focus on doing my job well because the kind of instruction that I got is always inadequate or misleading. I guess that is a price of working with someone who might be best described as "scatter-brain". But..fuh!!..** I am sorry. I don't mean to insult anybody. Its not like I love to label anybody whom I can't successfully deal with. It just that you know being a former perfectionist it is really pushing my limit buttons.

I don't want to hate my job. I become what I am now because it is my dream to be here. Its not like anybody forced me to be what I am. I chose it because it was and it is my passion and by now I should understand that having a job doesn't mean sunbathing on a beach with calm seas and blue skies. It has to be challenging and tough. It has to be something that pumped my blood and make me sweats because if its not like that then I don't think I am doing anything.

This way I can live my life better which is by appreciating every single day that I come to work and having to deal again and again with a complicated person.Well who knows what I might learn from here. Maybe God is preparing me for something bigger than just a complicated person to deal with. Right.

So, here we go again believing in "sincerity" and "honesty" to help me pressing forward in life.

Shall we DANCE to WORK now???
