Isn't it just wonderful how life can turn 360deg just cause we wish it to do so?
You know how people like to throw the words 'it's all in the mind' at you, everytime you feel like giving up. And of cos, we feel like putting a fist to their mouths because I'd rather have some kind of physical or monetary help than just advise.
But take a step back from your misery and you'll realise that there's more truth in that phrase than you ever imagined. That doesn't mean I wouldn't want to sock the person who's advising just for the sadistic fun of it but nevertheless the phrase can change your life.
I am actually practising what I am about to preach to a couple of athletes. I believe that the best way to connect to these athletes, when sharing with them the mental skills I have acquired, is to go through the same ardent journey of learning to apply these skills. I hope to get some kind of rapport because I can truly say ' what i'm sharing with you is no bull'. But holy crap,it ain't easy..
Today I just completed a 4km run without stopping. Don't ask about the timing cause I didn't really care. All i know is that the sun was still up when i was done. Which is of course a VERY good thing. It was alil experiment and I was the lab rat. To test the extent of mental strength and to actually convince myself why it's important. You see, I can't sell if I am not convinced.
Well bringing us back to the first question, it actually changed my view on life. I was lazy and although appeared to be confident, didn't really make the mark. One might question whether one run can actually change the world or the person. It's a valid question but i feel that it takes one moment to make that one change to one's mindset that is so critical in deciding between winning and comin in second.So i say it can. It changed me. Believe me, I was smiling once I was done. Although my legs were crumbling and I felt the over whelming need to sleep for three days, I felt that I was capable of anything because 'it's all in my mind'.
Please take note that only last week, i wasn't even able to run a decent 2.4km without panting like scooby doo. I think it's amazing.
Well I am going to conduct more experiments on myself and if in the process I become rich or die trying, would somebody please make a movie outta my life. I'm sure you'll earn big bucks! Cause we're talking about me; i don't find trouble, trouble finds me. There you go, I already got the title for you.
Anyway Ad's in Aussie. Hopes she's doin well. Kinda weird that ma buddy's not around cause I see her nearly everyday. I hope she ain't driving someone else nuts by whining at them. Have fun addie!
Oooo.. and i got kinda amused when i heard this line from this song by Fergie -Clumsy
"You got me trippin, stumbling, flippin, fumbling
Clumsy cuz I'm fallin in love
You got me slippin, tumbling, sinking, crumbling
Clumsy cuz I'm fallin in love
So in love with you"
More like a funny thought went thru my head. If I were like Fergie and actually IN love, I'd probably die. Because even now when I am single and in love with noone, I'm trippin, stumblin, flipping, somersaulting, cartwheeling..just plain clumsy. Even yday when i went to meet faz and saiful, i tripped on a damn curb and my toenail is still aching till today. I think it's a chronic incurable disease; This clumsiness i have.
Talkin about yday meetin with faz and saiful, we went to simpang and they were playin Dvds on the TV. and Suddenly a scene of ultmate dodginess came on in the family-orientated eating place. Orlando Bloom was stark naked and sticking his woody into some chic who was exposin her tits. It just ain't right! There are kids around! I appreciate that these are the truths of life but spare a thought for the parents who were just after work with their young ones, man! I'm sure they're not gona be in the mood to explain about the birds and the bees over prata and teh.
It's funny when things like this happen in CENSOR HUB S'PORE! It's like there are secret communities out to make the Government look like fools. But then again, not like the Government are doing a bad job on their own. But hey, who am i to say but a lone girl in sunny singapore where everything always seems nice on the surface and all the craps pushed under the carpet.
That shall be left for another posting. I'll be going now..
