The Teapot's Cabin

So it's been a while since I last posted here. Things have certainly changed for me...in various ways, and especially in my career... After all these years, I finally believe that dreams do come true. when you finally landed your dream job and everything just falls right into place....and looking back, I can certainly confirmed that it was all really planned out for me right from the beginning... Having jumped from one company to another (for those who knows me personally), I've always questioned the reason why for such things to keep occurring to me...it's tiring, to be honest, but nevertheless, I am truly thankful for each and every one of these episodes; the good and the bad. It has shaped me into who I am today. and it has certainly brought me to where I am today (in my career). In short, always believe that dreams do come true but...always be aware that it will not come at the time we want, but it will always do...so always be patient. have faith and trust ...

What makes a good leader? Such a generic question which many has learn to tackle...but first, what's your definition of a leader? Everyone has his or her own definition of a leader.. but i guess the basic of it is that a leader is a person who leads his or her team to finish up tasks that were given to them. In that case, anyone can be a leader... But what makes a good leader then? what's the extraordinary trait apart from the above? To me personally, after my 8 years of working, i get to brag that i finally know what a good leader is.  A good leader is someone who will motivate and inspire his or her team to greater heights. He or she is able to guide the team to move them to be more initiative in their given job/task. Guide here does not mean to constantly feed them with information and rules or procedures of what to do, but rather to lead them to the end goal of the task, as a back bench while the team is the one getting the job done. It is important to let the tea...

Need and Want. Two simple terms yet defined in such a broad manner. I was first introduced to these two terms during my tertiary studies by my lecturer, which have since stuck to me till now. He always tells us to only buy what we need and not what we want...and that has led him to wear the same pair of trousers from the first day we met him till now (maybe.....). that gave a huge impact on all of us, including me, on the vast difference between the two and how it has led us in our decision making daily...God bless this man! Lately, I came to see these two terms in a whole different light....in the form of persons...in an organization... people often don't view human resource as an asset, but they usually are...they are the hands that work the talk and the brains that generate ideas..... and it is down to these again..the kind of person you need in your team, and the kind of person you want in your team. Words does not mean anything if it is not furnish with the actions to su...

The human and the "smart" one. Of my years of working with various types of people from all walks of life, I finally come up with a summary of two major groups in the working force; the human and the "smart" one. Over the years, i have discover who I really am and somehow has my own style of working, which I would be able to call "my style". This style of mine can be the trigger of revealing the human and the "smart" one around me. Allow me to define further. The human is all about feeling. When someone is so busy with their tasks and duties, the human who is so free, would somehow start questioning his/her role when noticing his/her teammate is so busy while they are just shaking legs, waiting for time to go home, browsing social media, window shopping online, etc. When a human have the feeling of guilty, that's when they will approach the busy one to offer to help ease the burden. That's being human, because you know the purpose y...

Your patience will be rewarded. I can never agree more to that statement. How often do we wish to have the things we dream about...and when its finally in our door way, you can imagine the excitement that comes along with it.... you can say proudly, "FINALLY! AFTER ALL THESE YEARS" It is a justification of all the years of hard work and value that you put into. All the toil, the sweat, the pain, the anxiety...it finally mattered. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed about it. Hoping it will truly come true. So help me, God. Amen.

so well.....guess its my time now....the mid-life crisis........oh the horror and the anxiety that comes with it....THE MID-LIFE CRISIS... maybe it has been there all along, but i'm just denying the reality...and finally it surfaced...forcing me to deal with it, face-on.... often people just say it, but you never know the real deal till you are in it...and let me tell you, the struggle is real. it is as real as it can be.... so what is this crisis all about? people who knows me or work with me may not noticed this, but deep down within, the question is lingering at all times... What am I doing now? Where am I heading to? What do I want in life? it often is a career based question because that's how people often see this crisis, i meant from the generic point of view of most people...but then again, that is the core of it too... our career leads and shapes our future, of where we would be and what we would be... my career, i honestly admit, is something I am truly proud abou...

Are our emotions clearly seen on our faces or do we always wear a mask every time we leave our houses? I guess everyone do have their own individual mask(s) to wear, for every occasion. Why? all because the world hates the truth. The world despises the truth. The world is not ready for the truth. and thus, the truth is being hidden under those mask(s).  Yes, it is truly sad that mask have to be worn in order to survive our daily lives. People around us are not ready to accept the real us, the real person within each of us. There is always an expectation of people of us. thus when the expectation is not met, sarcasm and critics will come flying around. To save us from all these daggers, a mask is often needed. Sad it is, but that is the reality. It is a challenge to really remove the mask and to be who we are meant to be. It is difficult, I admit, and people are somewhat judgmental about it. The less we bother about all these, the more peaceful our hearts would be.  ...
