Here I am to share about how my semester holidays are going on.
As an ordinary student, I thought my semester holidays is going to be filled only with entertainment. Even a few weeks before that, I was already planning to schedule how my holiday has to be. The movies that I want to watch, places that I want to go, the things that I want to buy.
So as I finished my exams, I met my mentor, Elango Thiyagu.(http://elangothiyagu.com/ ) As it was hard to meet up with him during my exams. I was so excited that my semester holidays have just started and I wanted to have more fun. In a very very excited mood, I told my mentor that I am on break. I wanted to tell him all the plans that I had for this holiday. But all I received was, "Okay good. You can work more on your goals" (WHAT ) Hahahaha I know I went like “Seriously!” But I did not say anything. I replied with a " Oh! why not"
But you would never know how happily I am enjoying my holidays now. I get to work on my goals all day long! That is 24 hours and 7 days. Can you believe it? But I don't work that whole 24 hours of course. I get to work anytime and anywhere I want on something I love and am passionate about. It has been two weeks and I have been to only one movie. But that's not the point. I'm working on something and heading somewhere. It was so perfect that the project that I am working on has something for me to do for the proposal. It is not so secret by the way. I am working on an online radio. It is not up yet. We are in the process of bringing it up.
Yes I do procrastinate but I use my willpower and try my best to not to stay at home. Plus the amazing people that I work with get me moving. Every weekly Tuesday meetings (ET Ideas)(https://www.facebook.com/ETIdeasGroup/) I get inspired as I see Joyce, the founder of Simply Empowering Enterprise,( http://simplyempowering.net/ ) being so organized in what she does. Valsala, the founder of Globetrotter Consultancy (http://globetrotterconsultancy.com.my/,) who has never failed to call and work on her marketing. Yumitra, ( http://www.pensiveyumi.blogspot.my/ ) who has been writing amazing articles and to be truthful I get motivated to write because of her. Heerraa and Harsha, the rock stars who also write amazing articles while working on their goals. Three of these girls are still schooling and when I see them writing stuff, I get jealous too. But it is good as they are motivating me to write more.
Not forgetting the two wonderful people that I am working with, Rammyashieny ( http://clickingpens.com/ ) and Nicky Cheng! I meet Rammya almost every day. We work on ET Youth (https://www.facebook.com/ETYouth ) planning and on the online radio. We plan things a day before, like the location and timing. Apart from working on goals she also helps me in my personal growth. Where we get to talk about our subs antics. I get to learn lots of things from Nicky Cheng's experiences as well. Working on something you love can be so fun. You might not get what I mean here. But believe me; I am having so much of fun people!
And I'm also very lucky to have amazing parents. They know that I am on my semester break. They could always expect me to stay at home and do chores or clean up things. Yes I do the chores because I want to make my mom happy but I need a different environment away from home to focus and work on my goals. My dad could just stop giving me allowance as I am not going to college. But when I explained to him that I am on my semester break and I am going out every day to do work he has agreed to continue to give me allowance.
I am seeing my semester break as a golden opportunity to work more on my goals and spend more time in the right environment. I get to attend Coffee With ET.(https://www.facebook.com/ascendancepro/) Before this my college schedule didn’t favour this talk but with the break I’m allowed to listen to my mentor more. I spend more time with successful people and those who listen to their hearts. I used to hunt for ways to work on my goals during college time. But now to know that I have so much time to work excites me.
Apart from working on goals, I also learn more about myself. Mind you, my sub has been showering me with lessons. Also working towards my goal eventually helps me to learn more about myself. I am grateful to learn things from my mentor. He spends his time to teach me things. To be truthful, I have learned lots of lessons during these past two weeks. I have made mistakes and learning through mistakes gives you great lessons because it comes with pain . Hahaha !!
And can you believe that I did not go out with my friends? HAHA I was so used to going out with my friends. This time, I did not contact them and I don't think they even know that I am on my break. It is funny how things have changed and I am truly happy to be who I am now. In a way my mom is happy that I don't go out with friends. Having some meaningless friends is also a waste. I may sound rude. But I don't see the point of having people who does not contribute to my growth or anything else around me. And I am already starting to lose friends. Which is good :)
