Bi-weekly Reflection

During this month, found many things to note down which I have quite strong feelings to.
There are nothing more than experiencing many other things by yourself.

Importance of Execution and Discipline
I have continuously found proved that these 2 elements are closely linked together and very important towards achieving your goals in the most clear and motivated way. Without discipline and continuous effort/execution, there will not be such a case so-called "Success". For sure, these are not the only elements to succeed but then this can greatly help one to figure out what ways to go and achieve.

Self-awarness, alert to own learning, meditation
No one can take charge of your learning but yourself. The more detailed you reflect and alert, the quicker, deeper and clearer you will learn. This was what I discover when meeting with different individuals which I found out this very clearly. A good way, may not be the best, to dig out your learning is simply to meditate or doing reflection constantly. This is not only helping increase self-awareness but also helps increase concentration. A nice article has covered a story on this issue.

Style of Communications
The ways to express myself has come to a great deals of improvements required. So often to notice that I can express well when one-to-one meeting but not in public or in group. Maybe I am too serious and nervous in most time when speak publicly. Things gotta be improved as soon as possible. Practice makes perfect. I have confidence in this.

Passion to convey
Still the same problem now, I am not able to convey my passion to my teammates which I cannot use my XP and thoughts to influence people around me. This is surely a great challenge but I have learnt a bit in these 2 months which I can make something change in terms of their works and ways to pay effort.

Efficiency
Concentration does really a matter on this issue. Everyone has only 24 hours a day but what CEO does differently than normal people is the priority and concentration. They can work very efficiently and concentratedly which things go very fast. What I learnt this month is about how to guide people work efficiently. Not much results, but then still need to learn more.

Connection
A great success in the mentorship which I think this will be a great foundation in the coming activities or function. Again, the success lies on how much execution works you did. This mentorship program reflects a lot since no one knows what is going to be until the event happens. Just stay positive and things will go smooth. But then a strong feeling on how to leverage all these important alumni to our LC. They are going to be one of the scorecard item in the coming year, right?

Have a really nice and inpsiring chat with Thomas tonight, very glad to see so many friends from different social circles from Thomas's farewell BBQ party. Met a very nice guy from CX who is a GM in SE Asia and I saw a very old photo from him with Philip Chan as well, interesting!!!!

Have a bit chat with Thomas later and it was very relaxed and motivated to know that he supports my decision. We, as an AIESECer, always have the same values and mindsets in making changes and learning continuously in our life. These are all life values which all of us demonstrate fully which can totally be reflected by their stands and positions now. So, I have to plan for my next step as well. I should really have a deep chat with family then. Australia, UK and US should be the places I look for.

Finally, we chatted a bit on the scenery after 20 years and I keep asking myself a question. Will I still be involved into @ function after 20 years? Thomas said that I will and I have no idea now, but I think I should be. haha! Picture after 20 years, can't imagine but then exciting to see this how my mates grow differently in different places and areas. Make an effort in keeping contact is the most important thing. I have a plan on this already.

Look forward to next month. Life in AIESEC is really always amazing and enjoying especially connecting with others!!!!!

Strong feelings week

This week, I have always been thinking about many things like my goals, career, my learnings and XP in these 2 months and recapturing different things during my new official term as an LCP. So many things came up in my mind.

However, there are several things what I ascertain:
1. My value
2. My passion
3. Aware of others' and own learnings
4. My leadership style is yet to improve
5. Being disciplined and positive is extremely important
6. Having an execution plan with steps and deployment will greatly facilitate in achieving goals
7. Empowerment is more important than knowing all stuffs
8. Building a vision to everyone can help achieving the organizational goals

There are lots to write actually. Due to several impacts I had in these 2 months. I recognized that my good friends nearby are always similar styles and characteristics. I really appreciate that I have such many good friends who have strong mind in many aspects. I do really look forward to seeing all of their future and surely my future. I believe that the future is in our hands no matter which industry and where we are. I am sure!!!!!!!

Look forward to the coming challenges and this is my turn to gear up and turn on my engine!!!! There is nothing right or wrong in personal values but what I believe is that we are doing anything in an ethnical and efficient way.
