Is honesty always the best policy?

There is this saying called “honesty is the best policy.” But can it always hold up – in any time and type of circumstaces. This is where I think we get to really judge who lives by honesty all the time and who just on different occassions.

Let me briefly elaborate on what I mean by that: let’s say George, Tenzin and I are in a discussion group. We all agree that being honest is a good characteristics that will make others look upto you. But we all talk about honesty bit differently. George says honesty is always the best policy; however, Tenzin claims that there are times and situaions where you can’t be totally honest for one reason or another.

Therefore, from what George and Tenzin said, we can conclude that George tend to be more honest and more often than Tenzin.

Does motivation always involve goal setting?

So tonight I have been wondering how could I make sure I achieve one of my most important dream – yeah let’s call it a secret dream. I think I am capable of reaching that goal after seeing the potentials I have that haven’t been used, actually they have been misplaced literally.

Anyways, the question remains loud and clear: do we need to set up a goal in order to self motivate? I personally think it would completely depend on how we really define the words goal setting and self motivation. I m sure there atleast small group of people who will put self-motivation and goal-setting in the same category, while some others will not.

Then there are people like me, who atleast at this moment, thinks self motivation doesn’t necessarily have to include goal setting. Self motivation in my opinion should be understood as Do the Best You Can. This motto is far more helpful than setting up a too specific goal, because goals can be too easy or too hard to achive; either way, which will eventually result in the death of self motivation. On the other hand, the “self motivation of do the best you can” will never die out but instead it will motivate you further and prompt you to keep going and work hard. That might be the best motivation after all.

In a way, just the way smart rich people use their money to make more money (investing in stocks, money market, real estate,etc), intelligent motivated people can use their motivation to strengthen their self motivation.

When is life fair?

All is fair, including the life, when everything is working the way you want. And it is considered not fair when things and circumstances are working against us.

This is how I m feeling these days; my life is kind of leaning toward my desired destination. So life is fair to me.

Paycheck day

On a side, just when I got to work I realized it’s a paycheck day at one of my jobs. Nothing to be really happy about, except I will be able to pay off some of the debts I owe.

Kinda weird that we forget

I just kinda realized that most of us forget our nose run all the way up between our eyes – atleast I did. We know where our nose ends at, the tip and the two holes are so obvious. But the upper part is like hidden, maybe because our eyes overshadows it.

A while ago, I was looking at an image displaying anatomy of a skull, and noticed the lacrimal and nasal bone lie in between the eye sockets.

How to do more things in a day?

There have been many occassions where I felt like I did not really do much that day – or infact nothing really got done. This kind of problem often arise for two reasons: being lazy and keep procrastination or just too many things to do in a mere 24hours day. But my problem is caused by neither of them.

One of the most important trick to getting a lot of things in a day is to start doing things early. And if you are like me who complains about getting very less things in a day, you should consider starting early – wake up early. Going to bed late is one of bad habit that is taking over me. If I work until late night I can’t do anything to resolve it, but what I could do is don’t stay up long after I get home. That’s the promise I am making to myself – assuming only the rules and bones are meant to be broken, not the promises.
