Over the past few years, I’ve made a new circle of friends, namely bloggers and twitter-ers. There’s Bongkersz, Aeropama, AzmanIshak, Kujie, Qiilans87, Icenyior, Kruel74, SembangKomputer, Tekong, Bat, Wfxyz and many more.

When I started blogging, I had one thing in mind; to make trivial things matter. Anything under my radar, I wrote. I stitched my ego and laced it with emotions. And I believe I’ve succeeded that.

But the more I write, the more I derailed from my original goal.

On normal working days, I’d park my car around the office compound. Almost all the time I was greeted by the friendly Nepal guards, “Morning Boss”.

To be reasonably humble, you can’t just reply with “Morning”. You must initiate a short conversation. The routine is, “Sudah makan?”. Their usual response is “Sudah” and followed by a smile that stretches from ear to ear. The same question echoes whether I got back from lunch or meeting, without fail, I’d ask the same question and get the usual reply.

Over the pass 4 weeks, it has become a muscle brain for them. Even without saying anything, they’d say “Sudah” and I’d smile in return.

I spent 2 hours writing and found out that I had nothing to write about.

It was lines of bulls. Smelly stinky and pointless.

So here’s a quote

Don’t ever let anyone, including me (the head honcho), stand in your way to determine your success. You were born to win. So do what you do best.

Those words echoed right down to my spine. I knew I had to get it off my system.

ps: Reading Mahathir’s delivered speech, 1997-1999. Whoever wrote the speech, sure is very intelligent. But it requires a charismatic person to deliver it. Funny, most of it being so humble. Maybe because we were at a down turn?

Most of us are hyped about making a new year’s resolution, but what we forgot is, we are entering a new decade. What better ways to start a decade with having sets of long term goals.

Of course, I am obligated to share and remind myself what are my goals

1. Get Married. People say, I’m picky and fussy about the whole idea of marriage. Some say I have commitment issues. Both of them are true. The idea of marriage may take a while for me to sink in and I pretty much want to be married to a special someone for the rest of my life. Unlike shopping for a pair of comfy jeans, which I can replace annually, I have to be picky when it comes to this. To whom, that’s the already another issue and I believe I do NOT need to justify why I choose a doc.

2. Have Great Little NH. If you didn’t get that, it’s having kids. I have a soft spot for kids. I have been in touch with my paternal side for as long as I can remember. Let’s just hope God grants my kids a great mom.

When I look at the past, it’ll always remind me of sets of uncomplished goals. It saddens me most knowing I am an objective oriented person.

The game plan was different back then. I wanted to start a company (accomplished) and once I’ve settled down the ups-and-downs of business, I was thinking of getting married. Then do MBA to solidify my existent. Sadly, I managed to accomplished the first goal. And I am no where near the other goals.

Now it’s different. I’m back on the corporate ladder and couldn’t careless about getting married (not that I don’t care at all). I’m entirely devoted to realigning myself, back on the straight line. It’s rather selfish, but I know, it’s worth knowing yourself better, before understanding others.

After 10 years of fooling around, it’s time I get myself back on track. Goodbye 2009.

Goodbye Eddie. Hello Edwin!

ps: Will be writing about my decade’s resolution tonight.
