No. 2 Cleanliness.. 1 good step is I took good care of my care today. and room is almost 70% done.

No. 3Tidiness and being organize. This one gonna take sometime. I do felt good when seeing little things on my home table now. Other are to tackle asap.

No.4 Time management. Too many precious time wasted. Trying now even during business meeting will limit the time as well.

No. 5 procrastinations. Hell.. even today there is still pending 4 more things out of 15 things to be done. Not too bad lah.. seeking to fine tune along with time management.

No. 6 Punctuality. Well, I had came along way for this one and already making a huge quantum leap jor. But my gf is a very punctual person. So have to brush up. I do not she will take it easy on me during dating time ler..

No. 7 Weight. Hmmm got to console myself.. from 115 to now 98kgs. since the beginning of the year..give a pat to self for the achievement. Now the next target is 75 -80 kgs. With 6 packs. SIGH...day one no rice today. but its still fine..consider the benefits that is coming.

No. 8 Health.. yea... the obese size and lifestyle. so gonna sleep at 11 today and wake up 5am again. Ride time ...Readjusting to more raw food and alkaline diet.

No. 9 Finances/ Personal money.. Work in progress. need to toughen to learn to invest the different. getting a house also a priority.

No. 1o Image. hmm... well, working with hygiene side by side now.. after getting the ideal weight some decent clothing in place.

All this I got to embrace to a new tune of excellence if not also up to par during chinese new year..

Got to sleep now... cranking up the crank tomorrow morning..

Quote of the week

“You must assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled until your assumption has all the sensory vividness of reality. You must imagine that you are already experiencing what you desire. That is, you must assume the feeling of the fulfillment of your desire until you are possessed by it and this feeling crowds all other ideas out of your consciousness.

Decide what you want and ask yourself what it would be like and how you would feel if it were true. Then dare to assume you have it. Let the people who know you now see you after your assumption. Don't make them see you; let them see the change! Then you will know who the cause of the phenomena of life really is.

When I say you are all imagination, I mean it.”

- Neville Goddard

"Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them."

The perils of taking long leave from cycling..

hIS blog that dictate his journey :-

http://istanbultea.typepad.com/

This guy was told he had months to live and weighting 508 pounds that time and doctor suggest surgery. No he dint go for it instead seek the alternative. Biking.

Bought a few bikes and eventually those bikes laugh at him and he broke each of them. Not to bad to get even yea.. That didnt slow down his spirit and got a custom made bike for him lah..

Indeed he was a happy man and clocking thousands of miles since then. It was a great milestone.

Last Friday I was riding with my bicycle shop flers and few hardcore riders. It was almost 4 months since I took a very long leave and vacations from cycling.

Forget about the previous Sunday ride with my gf which she Humpty Dumpty a few times, but it was a good effort from her to cycle around Putrajaya. :p

I was talking about hardcore riding with seasonal riders..Damn..even a small uphill to KL tower was a killer!!!!!!! This is insane.. what to even talk about those epics ride.

Even last week I wasn't very serious about my diet and exercise regime too.

Well, today gotta focus.. Target is VIOLA on first day of CNY before my Gf boo ME!!

ahahah...okay...get back to work now.

Ciao..

I was really happy this few days to be able to spend good quality time with my gf since her birthday. Thanks dear for the wonderful time together!

Doubt or no doubt..

As I was reading Princess Amidala blog.. she sprung out something interesting about making a reconciliation in separated love relationship.

Well, I was trying to re jog my old memories and how a comeback in love couple relationship likes..

Its sometime a no easy tasks when one love the other person and the other person is insensitive to the wants and needs of the others. Somehow being independent in loving relationship does reflect maturity. .Yet, its a two communications stuff and the word relationship actual if you break it down is RELATE... RELATION... SHIP..

So obviously RELATE has got a lot to do with communication.. and RELATIONS goes further into certain extend of tie and understanding in this communication.. SHIP is something going on board and committed to it.. like friendSHIP.. your level of on board the deck with friend does has it value between both of you..

yet.. love couple relationship goes further and to certain degree of intimacy. Well, I take into account that this love relationship is 1 to 1 rules.. else read no more if your disagree with my thought.. ahaha..

Being in a relationship sometime does take hardwork and understanding. If you are with someone with likemindedness and have so much common and interests and goals ..then it will be much easy. .but some ppl label it as boring .. :p..

Anyway, its not everyone that will surely ended up with someone that has such common ground all the time.. I think sometime we could love someone of the opposite side.. both side need to work towards certain understanding and the level of sacrifices that is willing from both party.

There are of course no guarantee happily ever after especially in these day society which we shoulder upon ourselves with hope and dreams so much that we are willing for forgo sometime that ultimate values in having a loving and true relationships.

I took a long time to understand too. I don't really have a role models in front of my eyes. I only see my parents growing in love and care until I am age 8 years old.. after that all hell broke lose..

It was a stony ride for me and I do learn in the process anyway. Still learning though. I hope to improve much better.

I think when you are in love with someone. You gotta take time to care and love for that person. I think it is also a daily affair no matter how busy we are at time. You need to share and grow and sometime self-checking as well.. have we take thing for granted.. I think it does take some interesting works.. but the process is so much interesting and fun if both party could work it out lah...

Amanda, pertaining to the question you ask ... I do ask myself long time ago. I think there is no such definite answer.. Now the choice is whether you want to dive into that reservoir again or not.. time will tell... and from my experience ...after sometime of being together again.. you will know it... I think from my experience to best describe a comeback in a love relationship is as the quote below ( my 2 cents tot ) :-

You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.
