You can call me Noi! This blog consists of my thoughts. I am just a simple person with BIG dreams! Like the charcoal, hot pressure and extreme heat must be present in order to create a Diamond. I am in the exact same process.

Being honest / Saturday, January 31, 2009 @ 11:33 PM
Its Saturday and yay. Yesterday was such a super long day for me and I was so exhausted at the end of the day that I took cab home. Plus I did not want to be lugging my heavy bag around any longer.
The induction / briefing at PSB was great. I cannot help but think that these batch of SNOs are so lucky simply because they will be closely guided. I was mostly clear on what to do and what is going to happen, I almost wanted to ask the EPs on what basis were we chosen for this mentorship programme but I decided not to put them in a spot. Even the D, Meena was around to speak to us, I was like wow, this is really a big thing for them.
Anyway, I did not know that we were going to get to meet our mentees. I guess its a good thing so that we will not be shocked / stunned / suprised whatever you wanna call it, on Monday morning. I just hope that the mentee will be able to blend nicely into our spontaneous SSN team. I really do not think I am in any position to mentor somebody, I have only been doing this for almost 2 years and truly, I myself learn new things everyday.
I guess this will be good learning process for me and partner too. I am just glad there is another SNO in the school that the mentee can learn from in case she learn nothing for me! Haha!
PASE was awesome and I was like a proud parent watching Naf do her sharing. I even had a congratulations from Lisa on this! Awesome sharing, I am so proud of YOU. She was so patient waiting for me to arrive when I was already late and had a shoe emergency. My shoe (both) threw tantrum and I had to go get new shoes in the rush. A few pairs of my footwear stop working and left me nothing to wear but crocs. Since I cannot wear crocs to school, I really had nothing to wear on my feet.
I am warning you. These shoes may look nice and entice you to buy them but they really come back biting your feet until you are forced to take cab everywhere you go. Let me present to you:
Look how nice they look. This was on Wednesday night after function.
Then it broke, heel cam off, my bare heel (the inside of the heel) got stuck into the escalator! Yup, if you see a girl at Bishan on Friday who appear to try to pull her feet off the escalator, that girl would be me.
I still looked awesome though. Wahahaha. Comforting words for me :p
So I was so sick of having no comfortable shoes to wear and I decided to think of a solution.
This is the solution.
Get more than a pair of shoes! For goodness sake!! Thank goodness too, a lot of the shops were giving discounts after the CNY so its timing was just perfect for me.
Listening to Rashmir (this month's BOM) so make sense. This guy is all about logical thinking and I really can relate to his sayings. I come home from PASE and realised that I have yet to produce any new pins from the team after going Eagle. I also realise that there has been so much distractions for me, some really major ones. I really need to get back on track and focus and break new pins, for new people each month.
So far my team mates, the people I have been working with, have been awesome. Yes, you will face distractions and challenges. I do too, all the time actually. Its NORMAL. Its ok, this is a forgiving business and all that matters is that you get back up after falling down. You have to get back up yourself. I will stretch out my hand to pull you up but you have to want to get up. I cannot carry you up.
Therefore, I do appreciate honesty. There is no way I can help you if I do not know what is going on. Look around. The most successful IBO is someone who have always been honest with me, because that is the only way to be clear. Being clear is important, one cannot have doubts, fear can be conquered, doubts cannot. Therefore, please be clear. Be clear on the 'whys' and give yourself a little more belief.With this new belief is also accountability.
If you do not believe in yourself, at least believe that I believe in you.
I shall save my congratulations for you for the next few months. I know you can ;)
If you know you have talent, and you have seen a lot of motion, but little concrete results --- you may lack self discipline. (John C Maxwell)
Have a great Sunday ;)
