Life's choices

Never feel better now that a decision has been reached. Joe and I are really looking forward to seeing everyone back in Singapore. Life still goes on but I think we should think of duty and other things. Fear of failure is necessary if we wanna make something good out of it. No fear means we will likely take things for granted.

Interesting that sometimes many things will happen and u have to make a totally different decision to cater to the needs of all parties. These few days Charles been really cooperative and we managed to do quite a bit of work. With less scoldings and more coaching, he actually wants to work. Boys like to "waste time" watching television programmes, eating snacks etc before they settled down to do their work. We term wasting time, they term it relaxing. Many a times we lose our temper and scolded them upside down and then they felt fed up and refused to response. That's the kind of situation whereby it is both a lose-lose situation. Telling them work first and play later just won't register in their little heads. They wanna have fun and then do their work. Maybe boys will be like that their whole lives but what can we do??? Push them away with our harsh words and anger or simply wait and help them along the way???? Good habits are cultivated but somehow we have been doing that but they simply heed nothing. What will cause such a lasting impressions that they learn the fact and get on with life with all the right values to exceed?

For those who like to quit and find a new job, being a parent will be a struggle for them. As parents we cannot quit the role and has to carry on working in this "job".It's challenging and a lot of hardwork and sometimes u feelt hat u do not have bonus or rewards. It's endless chores and giving. Being burnt out means we have done something wrong somewhere and need to find solutions to the problems. If feeling overwhelmed, try to take on smaller job scope. Celebrate small success and not trying to complete everything all in the same time. Enjoy the process and see what surprises the job have. Many a times, the rewards roll in slowly and before long, it's time to retire and u will start to miss all the fun.

Parenting is such an interesting job and if I am a boss, I will see how the person treats his family members. Those who are able to take good care of his family will be able to take care of my business.

CRazy thoughts ho but somehow that's what's in my mind now. Gonna publish it anyway.
