Had a rather long day today. Literally 12 hours of discussions and stuff. Alan is right about certain things, things I have perhaps overlooked in my newfound worry of worrying of everyone else (simply because I don’t quite need to worry about myself).
I have resigned recently to my new goal in life; to help others achieve their goals since I don’t particularly have any. In doing so, I have fervently absorbed every little detail of their life, finances, welfare, morale, etc, and have perhaps lost sight if certain realities in life that have once been so obvious to me.
Some people have to learn the hard way, through experience. A jovial outlook does not mean reception to the experience of others, which I do not, and cannot blame, for I was once as obstinate. Perhaps after functioning alone for so long, I have forgotten what it was like to lead a team (and it was really not too long ago when I lead teams in hundreds to get stuff done).
It is probably time to assume, with a degree of firmness, the position that I have so shunned away from, due to my one everlasting regret of having failed my last ideal team. When there is no other option, the best option is to be taken, just like it is in the chain of field command.
Anyhows, this year looks as if it will conclude on a rather fine note. Of course, much is needed; creativity, passion, management, leadership, and most importantly, HARD WORK.
We will have a great, unforgettable year ahead. It has been long since I have felt so at home :)
