i wanna recommend a book for u guys out there.it's really interesting and it really helps me alot.

the book is titled "IT'S NOT HOW GOOD YOU ARE, IT'S HOW GOOD YOU WANT TO BE"
i think it's really worth it for S$15 though its just a small book with127 pages only.Well, at least it got me off my emo-ness.
Some of the things that he say is really #$@%. really makes me think more about what i'm doing now and what should be my priority right now.Really if you got the time and money, go grab this from kinokuniya.It's really worth it.Below are some of the quotes...

"Your vision of where or who you want to be is the greatest asset you have。Without having a goal it's difficult to score."

" Don't look for opportunity.The one you have in your hands is the opportunity."

Have you noticed how the cleverest people at school are not those who make it in life?
What you learn in school are facts, known facts.
your job in school is to accumulate and remember facts.the more you can remember, the better you do.
Those who fail at school are not interested in facts; or maybe the facts are not put to them in the way they find it interesting.
Some people simply don't have a great faculty for memory.
It doesn't mean that they are stupid. It means that their imagination hasn't been fired up academic tuition.
People who are conventionally clever get jobs on their qualifications ( the past), not their desire to succeed (the future).
Very simply, they get overtaken by those who continually strive to be better than they are.
As long as the goal is there, there is no limit to anyone's achievement.




It's wrong to be right.
Being right is based upon knowledge n experience and is often provable.
Knowlegde comes from the past, so it's safe.It's also outta date.It's the opposite of originality.
Experience is built from solutions to old solutions and problems.The old solutions are probably different rom the present ones, so that the old solutions will have to bent to fit new problems (and possibly fit badly). Also likelihood is that, if you're got the experience, you'll probably use it.
This is being lazy.
Experience is the opposite of being creative.
If you can prove that you're right, you're set on concrete.You cannot move with the times or with other people.
Being right is also being boring.Your mind is closed.You are not open to new ideas.You are rooted in your rightness, which is arrogant.Arrogance is a valuable tool, but only if used sparingly.
Worst of all, being right has a tone of morality about it.To be anything else sounds weak or fallible, and people who are right would hate to be thought fallible.

So: it's wrong to be right, because people who are right are rooted in the past, rigid-minded, dull and smug.
There's no talking to them.
