Satisfaction

Sorry for the hiatus from my little blog here. I would usually say it's because I'm busy but to be honest, it's because I didn't feel there was anything I wanted to write on here for the past few months. And here I am again. Reading some notes which I got from a very dear friend as a present last year has inspired me to write this post here tonight. I cannot guarantee that I will continue posting here on a regular basis but I just suddenly had an urge to post something, so here goes.

I was wondering why is it that a lot of us like to focus on what we do NOT have, what we did NOT achieve, instead of what we DO have or what we DID achieve. It's quite a shame that some of us are never satisfied with what we have or what we have achieved. I find myself getting stressed out at the end of the day because I feel like I haven't completed everything that I have to do. But then again, was it reasonable to have expected myself to complete all those things in one day? Maybe, or maybe not. By having that expectation to never having a blank to do list is not reasonable. There will always be things to do and goals to work towards. Once I'm done with what I have to do today there will be more tasks I have to add to my to do list tomorrow. It's only normal. We shouldn't stress. Set reasonable goals and then at the end of the day, take note of what we've accomplished and not what we have YET to accomplish.
