Comfort Zone?
Man, was it hard to log into blogger for the last few nites. Wanted to shout out some deep unhappy negative feelings here, but it was even more frustrating to be not able to log into here.
But i think it's for the best lar, else i'm gonna scold everyone that comes across me.
Anyway, i had a thought lately. About how come a lot of people refuse to make changes to themselves?
You know sometimes there will be people telling you that you should make improvements to yourselves, telling you that you should be better. But of course, who ever listens to advice when they were given sincerely?
i know i don't. At least not everytime.
It's always when you bang into the wall, and then you'll tell yourselves, "I know i should've listen that time."
Well, it's not always too late though. My point today is not about regrets and stuffs. It's about how come we refuse to change ourselves?
Managers in my company always talk about changing our mindsets, about changing our attitudes. We must always have the end in mind. But i see the same shit going on everyday. We can always be talking about changing and improving, but it only happens when we really do something about it.
Just why don't we do something about it then?
FEAR.
The fear of leaving the comfort zone we are in now. Fear of risking everything we have now. Fear of getting into deep pile of shit. Fear of failing.
It's always those less fortunate people who are willing to work hard that got everything in life in the end. Why? They have nothing to lose in trying. They have no comfort zone to linger in.
If you think your life is good now, think again. There'll be a day when your comfort zone shrinks so much, and it will be too late for you to do anything about it.
Do more when you are still young. Think out of the box. Live beyond your comfort zone.
Improve yourselves.

Well, Andrew Matthews used to say : "If you want people to change, you have to change first."
Change, easily spoken than it could be done. But if one really can withstand it, for her/him it's definitely not a problem.
It's a chain reaction thingy - once someone starts the change, it will affect everyone around her/him.
But I guess the problem of your company's 'changing' policy lies in here - your supervisors did ask you all to change, but did s/he asked you all to change 'for the better'? And what was the direction that s/he asked you all to change? And also, it is the leader's job to initiate the change, and is s/he changing anything for the better?
If s/he hasn't been changing for the good, don't get too frustrated - actually this is a good oppurtunity for you and your other colleagues to prove yourselves better. If you all did your best infixing up what s/he couldn't do, what you all will gain is even more than a mere promotion or a raise, because I'm sure in your company there will be someone who has good eyes for efficient people.
You have my full support in all your efforts, Brother Chim.
