It's all about YOU..

I've been getting a lot of support lately.. and the feeling is overwhelming!

It seems that many of my friends out there see a better picture of me than myself.. when I mentioned to them that I'll be leaving the engineering field to persue a career in Training, many congratulated me and said I'd be great at it.. They say I'll fit in like a glove and that is what I'm destined to do.. To be honest, I have my doubts.. I know I get nervous easily and I'm not that articulate.. I'm just not as good as how I want to be..

But people see me as more than that.. At first I was thinking, "Well, these are people close to me and they're just being nice".. However this morning I got an e-mail from my e-pal (a friend of a friend that became my e-mail friend that I've been in touch with since 2004 but never actually met).. and basically the contents were that she had more faith in me than I have.. probably through the years of our correspondence she saw that I'm not the typical technical guy.. kot?

I've always believed in "Think positive and prepare for the worst".. but sometimes it's just not only to think positive but you have to believe it.. Change to words you use when you think.. For example, from "I know I can score" to "I will score".. and (I know I'm saying this to myself) reduce the negative aspect by reducing the word "but" from you vocabulary..

I'm learning to believe in myself and my true potentials.. If people can see it, why can't I? kan? :)

were those ur own words..or did u copy that from somewhere else?
if those were ur own words then I say you DO have it in you to be a good trainer..coz I remember those exact words from a self-motivating book that I read not long ago..
so congrats ;)

Well.. the words might not be 100% from me but I do strongly believe in the idea and I want to share it with others.. :)
