Me musing

It's been 2 weeks since my last post & glad to be well to blog & do my stuff :)

Today was a tiring day with what seems to be a fruitless day with few opened bills, weird encounters & unpleasant people ... I tried to think positive thoughts, "There will be ups & downs in sales" (which is very true) There will be days without much & there will be more on another occassion. There is a time for everything. Ahhh yes, what a great reminder that was.

The more important thing which I must not forget is, what my Dad used to tell me many times, "seek first the kingdom of God & all other things shall be added unto you"

Today's readings too tell us the same story,

Jesus said to His disciples:
"Do not store up treasures for yourselves on earth....but store up treasures for yourselves in heaven, where neither moth nor woodworm destroys them & thieves cannot break in & steal.
For wherever your treasure is, there will your heart be too."

Where is your heart? Do you trust money more than you trust God?

Amidst all the pressure to hit my sales target:- my 3 months probation is nearing it's review, my performance since day 1 has went downhill fast, changes in company policies, changes in commision schemes for the worst, etc...it was almost as if I had no choice but to make it & hit my target this month. Thanks to the grace of God, I have fared quite well so far but then just a little bit of roughness today & I felt shaken. I myself find it funny now... :P

So when it was nearing to the end of a tiring & unproductive day, I asked myself a question, "If today is my last day, would it matter if I had closed perhaps a thousand or even a ten thousand dollar bill? My answer is "No." As simple as that, it must mean it is not really important after all!

It truly was a great way to overcome my lack of morale then ^^

That method was one mentioned in the book "Don't sweat the small stuff" as i recalled it. Interestingly, same can be applied to other situations. Next time your feelings mislead you, try it... see if that thing that bothers you really matters that much ;)

Ok, that's all for now, gotta get some rest tonight, tomorrow is another day!

Until next time! God bless ^^
